Normally located polyhedra

Lattice polyhedra $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ with the same tail cone are said to be normally located if every lattice point in the Minkowski sum $Q_1+Q_2$ is the sum of lattice points from $Q_1$ and $Q_2$, respectively. We prove that if the normal fan of $Q_1$ refines the normal fan of $Q_2$, then there is a positive integer $k$ such that for any positive integer $s$ the polyhedra $skQ_1$ and $skQ_2$ are normally located. This result is based on an interpretation of the problem in terms of graded algebras and earlier results on surjectivity of the multiplicaiton map on homogeneous components. Also we provide an example of two lattice triangles $P$ and $Q$ on the plane such that for any positive integer $k$ the triangles $kP$ and $kQ$ are not normally located.
