Because of importance and popularity of the Normal distribution, the samples based on this distribution has been considered and the outliers are identified using cut-off values which are dependent on the sample size. A decision problem has been structured to obtain the optimal cut-off value. The problem is solved by a simulation study with a minimax rule.
