Optimal Order Policy for Time-Dependent Deteriorating Items in Response to Temporary Price Discount Linked to Order Quantity
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we discuss the possible effects of a temporary price discount offered by a supplier on a retailer’s replenishment policy for timedependent deteriorating items with constant demand rate. The optimal ordered quantity of a special order policy for a selected case is obtained by maximizing the total cost saving between special and regular orders for the duration of the depletion time. An algorithm is exhibited to determine the optimal solution. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the theoretical results.

Optimal Order Policy for Deteriorating Items with Time-Dependent Demand in Response to Temporary Price Discount Linked to Order Quantity
This paper presents the possible effects of a temporary price discount offered by a supplier on a retailer’s replenishment policy for deteriorating items with linear time dependent demand rate. The optimal ordered quantity of a special order policy for a selected case is obtained by maximizing the total cost saving between special and regular orders for the duration of the depletion time. An al...
متن کاملAn optimal policy for deteriorating items with time-proportional deterioration rate and constant and time-dependent linear demand rate
In this paper, an economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model for a deteriorating item is developed with the following characteristics: (i) The demand rate is deterministic and two-staged, i.e., it is constant in first part of the cycle and linear function of time in the second part. (ii) Deterioration rate is time-proportional. (iii) Shortages are not allowed to occur. The o...
متن کاملEOQ Model for Deteriorating Items with Exponential Time Dependent Demand Rate under Inflation When Supplier Credit Linked to Order Quantity
In paper (2004) Chang studied an inventory model under a situation in which the supplier provides the purchaser with a permissible delay of payments if the purchaser orders a large quantity. Tripathi (2011) also studied an inventory model with time dependent demand rate under which the supplier provides the purchaser with a permissible delay in payments. This paper is motivated by Chang (2004) ...
متن کاملA New Inventory Model for Deteriorating Items with Price-dependent Demand, Time-value of money, and Shortages
This paper presents a discounted cash-flow approach to an inventory model for deteriorating items with the 
two-parameter Weibull distribution. According to our proposed model, two shortages are considered: back-orders and lost-sales, 
in which the back-order rate is a varying function of the time when the shortage happens. In general, the demand rate is a linear function of the selling p...
