An EOQ model with backorders and rejection of defective supply batches
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a single-echelon inventory installation under the classical EOQ (with backorders) paradigm to study the effects of supply quality on cost performance. Previous research on imperfect supply quality has focused on variants of the proportional (deterministic or random) yield problem, where supply batches are all accepted and then used, after screening any defects. In this paper we study an alternative setting where, entire supply batches may be defective (below quality standards) and therefore rejected on arrival. Note that such supply flow disruptions are analogous to those considered within the economic order quantity with disruptions (EOQD) area of research. We first present an exact model for the system expected cost and show its convexity. Optimal cost and respective values of the decision variables (i.e. planned order quantity and backorders) are then obtained in a closed form. Interestingly, under perfect supply quality, all expressions reduce to those of classical EOQ. Analytical and computational results reveal the serious impact of inferior supply quality on system cost as well as the sensitivity of the system

The Inventory Models with Backorders and Defective Items Derived Algebraically and Agm
The algebraic arithmetic-geometric mean inequality method (the algebraic AGM method) is used to derive the optimal lot size and the optimal backorders level for the EOQ and EPQ models with backorders and defective items introduced by [6]. The method is easy to derive both the optimal lot size and optimal backorders level without derivatives. AMS Subject Classification: 90B05
متن کاملThe derivation of EOQ/EPQ inventory models with two backorders costs using analytic geometry and algebra
The EOQ model will have a century of its discovery in two years, and recently still, many researchers have been using alternative approaches to model and solve inventory systems. The EOQ/EPQ models have been developed using different optimization methods. However, in many of the works that deal with the EOQ/EPQ with backorders only linear backorders cost is considered. This paper proposes anoth...
متن کاملGeneralized EOQ formula using a new parameter: Coefficient of backorder attractiveness
This paper introduces and examines a generalized EOQ formula, based on the model with linear and fixed backordering costs. The new square-root formula is a combination of two well-known classical models, the basic EOQ model without stockouts and the EOQ model with backorders and linear backordering costs. Helping to combine the two is a new parameter, a fractional coefficient capturing the attr...
متن کاملEconomic production quantity with rework process at a single-stage manufacturing system with planned backorders
In traditional inventory models such as the economic order quantity (EOQ) and the economic production quantity (EPQ) the sole objective is to minimize the total inventory-related costs, typically holding cost and ordering cost. These models do not consider the presence of defective products in the lot or rework of them. Recently, Jamal, Sarker, and Mondal (Jamal, A. A. M., Sarker, B. R., & Mond...
متن کاملDeveloping EOQ model with instantaneous deteriorating items for a Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) system
This paper studies the economic-order-quantity model (EOQ) for deteriorating items in two cases (with and without shortages) to evaluate how vendor managed inventory (VMI) affects supply chain. We consider two-level supply chain (single supplier and a single retailer) with one instantaneous deteriorating item. A numerical example and sensitivity analysis are provided to illustrate the effect of...
