Abstract:

In the traditional economic order quantity/economic production quantity model, most of the items considered are of perfect type. But this situation rarely takes place in practice. Thus, in this paper, an economic order quantity model with imperfectquality items is developed. 100% screening process is performed, and the items of imperfect quality are sold as a single batch. A proportionate rate of discount for the items of imperfect quality has also been studied. Moreover, a case study has been incorporated to comprehend the model. To nullify the issues of non-random uncertainties of demand rate in business scenario, cloudy fuzzy method has been utilized here. Numerical study reveals that cloud model along with its new defuzzification methods can give maximum profit of the model all the time instead of deterministic ones. Finally, sensitivity analysis and graphical illustrations are made to justify the novelty of the model.

Fuzzy Economic Production Quantity Model for Items with Imperfect Quality

In the real world, vague phenomenon is quite common in the production/inventory models. In order to process the vagueness, a production/inventory model that can be more closely related to the real vagueness and can take account of the vague factors that contribute to production costs, is required. The model must be extended or altered to fit in with the fuzzy situation. Since items with imperfe...

An economic order quantity with imperfect quality and quantity discounts

Previous studies in the issue of inventory models with imperfect quality assumed the defectives could be sold in a batch by the end of the inspection process and the manufacturing systems were push systems. However, the above assumptions may not be true in the pull system in which buyer is powerful. Therefore, in this paper, we develop a new inventory model for items with imperfect quality and ...

Economic order quantity model for growing items with incremental quantity discounts

Certain inventory items are living organisms, for example livestock, and are therefore capable of growing during the replenishment cycle. These items often serve as various saleable food items downstream in supply chains. The purpose of this paper is to develop a lot sizing model for growing items if the supplier of the items offers incremental quantity discounts. A mathematical model is derive...

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...

Economic order quantity model for items with imperfect quality with learning in inspection

The economic order quantity (EOQ) model is the simplest and earliest inventory model in the literature. Its simple mathematics is attributed to its assumptions, which are rarely met. Salameh and Jaber [2000. Economic production quantity model for items with imperfect quality. Int. J. Prod. Econ. 64, 59–64] addressed one of these assumptions that items received or produced are not of perfect qua...

Economic ordering quantity models for items with imperfect quality

In this paper, we first look at the issue of non-shortages in models with proportional imperfect quality, when the proportion of the imperfects is a random variable. More specifically we revisit the papers of Salameh and Jaber (Int. J. Prod. Econom. 64 (2000) 59) and Chan et al. (Prod. Plann. Control 14 (2003) 588) and we point out that the sufficient conditions given in these papers to ensure ...
