abstract

proper inventory control policy and the optimal price for the items has always been one of the main topics of scientific research and industry. on the other hand, there are many products in the market witch are classified as deteriorating items. therefore the problem of determining optimal price and optimal inventory policy for this type of items is very important. in this paper a 3 echelon supply chain consisting of a manufacturer, a distributor and a retailer is considered. there is only a single type of item with constant deterioration. demand is deterministic and replenishment is instantaneous. the purpose of this study is to increase the total profit by determining the optimum values of the product price (p) and ordering cycle (t) of distributor. since the products are deteriorating, some part of the initial stored inventory is lost. therefore, distributor disposes the spoiled items and replaces them with the same amount of sound items. the replacement in the storehouse of the distributor is also instantaneous. finally, numerical examples are presented to elaborate the model and sensitivity analysis is performed on the values of some parameters.

Entropic Economic Order Quantity Model for Items with Imperfect Quality Considering Constant Rate of Deterioration under Fuzzy Inflationary Conditions

It was suggested in 2004 by some researchers that it might be possible to improve production systems performance by applying the first and second laws of thermodynamics to reduce system entropy. Then these laws were used to modify the economic order quantity (EOQ) model to derive an equivalent entropic order quantity (EnOQ). Moreover the political instability or uncertainty of a country (as wel...

An 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...

An inventory model for deteriorating items with weibull deterioration rate, linear demand rate, unit production cost and without shortages

The objective of this model is to investigate the inventory system for perishable items with linear demand pattern where Weibull deterioration is considered. The Economic order quantity is determined for minimizing the average total cost per unit time. The unit production cost is taken to be inversely related to the demand rate. The result is illustrated with numerical example.

An Optimal Inventory Policy for Items Having Constant Demand and Constant Deterioration Rate with Trade Credit

In most of the classical inventory models the demand is considered as constant. In this paper the model has been framed to study the items whose demand and deterioration both are constant. The authors developed a model to determine an optimal order quantity by using calculus technique of maxima and minima. Thus, it helps a retailer to decide its optimal ordering quantity under the constraints o...

An Optimum Inventory Policy for Exponentially Deteriorating Items, Considering Multi Variate Consumption Rate with Partial Backlogging

Abstract Customer purchasing deeds may be affected by factors such as selling price and inventory level instead of demand which is considered either constant or function of single variable which is not feasible. Consequently in the present study we have considered demand rate as a function of stock-level and selling price both. In present study, in order to develop this model it has been assume...
