Technical Note - Optimal Dynamic Joint Inventory-Pricing Control for Multiplicative Demand with Fixed Order Costs and Lost Sales
This note studies the optimal dynamic decision-making problem for a retailer in a price-sensitive, multiplicative demand framework. Our model incorporates lost sales, holding cost, fixed and variable procurement costs, as well as salvage value. We characterize the structure of the retailer’s (discounted) expected profit-maximizing dynamic inventory policy for both finite and infinite selling ho...
متن کاملOptimality Gap of Constant-Order Policies Decays Exponentially in the Lead Time for Lost Sales Models
Inventory models with lost sales and large lead times have traditionally been considered intractable, due to the curse of dimensionality which arises from having to track the set of orders placed but not yet received (i.e. pipeline vector). Recently, Goldberg et al. (2012) laid the foundations for a new approach to solving these models, by proving that as the lead time grows large (with the oth...
متن کاملParametric replenishment policies for inventory systems with lost sales and fixed order cost
In this paper we consider a single-item inventory systemwith lost sales and fixed order cost. We numerically illustrate the lack of a clear structure in optimal replenishment policies for such systems. However, policies with a simple structure are preferred in practical settings. Examples of replenishment policies with a simple parametric description are the (s, S) policy and the (s,nQ) policy....

متن کاملAsymptotic Optimality of Order-Up-To Replenishment Policies for Serial Inventory Systems with Lost Sales
We study the optimal policy for a serial inventory system under periodic review when excess demand at the retailer (i.e., the most downstream stage) is lost. We focus on “high service level environments” (i.e., systems where the cost of a lost sale is high compared to inventory holding costs). These environments are typical of products whose margins are high relative to their holding costs. Whe...
