چکیده

 In this paper, optimum procurement policy is worked out when trade credit is offered to the retailer by the supplier and demand is stock-dependent. The own warehouse (OW) capacity is limited and excess inventory is stored in rented warehouse (RW). The rented warehouse has modern infra-structure facility. Hence, the unit holding cost in rented warehouse is assumed to be higher than that in the owned warehouse. A decision rule is constructed to hire a rented warehouse or not. The uniqueness of the optimal solution is discussed. The numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed problem. The managerial insights are deduced using sensitivity analysis. It is observed that the retailer should stock more and increase time for a higher ordering cost. On the other hand, lower ordering cost facilitates the retailer to go for owned warehouse only. Keywords Inventory, EOQ, stock-dependent demand, two-warehouse, trade credit.

Optimal Ordering Policy with Stock-Dependent Demand Rate Under Retailer’s Two Stages Trade Credit Financing Using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Approach

Email: [email protected] Abstract: Many researchers have assumed one stage trade credit financing. In this study, we considered two levels of trade credit policy using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) approach. Demand rate is considered to be stock-dependent for the first level (credit demand) and constant for second level (cash demand). Mathematical models are derived under two differen...

Optimal Ordering Policy with Stock-Dependent Demand Rate under Permissible Delay in Payments

We develop an inventory model to determine optimal ordering policy under permissible delay in payment by considering demand rate to be stock dependent. Mathematical models are derived under two different cases: credit period being greater than or equal to cycle time for settling the account, and credit period being less than or equal to cycle time for settling the account. The results are illus...

Optimal replenishment and credit policy in supply chain inventory model under two levels of trade credit with time- and credit-sensitive demand involving default risk

Traditional supply chain inventory modes with trade credit usually only assumed that the up-stream suppliers offered the down-stream retailers a fixed credit period. However, in practice the retailers will also provide a credit period to customers to promote the market competition. In this paper, we formulate an optimal supply chain inventory model under two levels of trade credit policy with d...
