Inventory Model for an Inventory System with Time-varing Demand Rate
نویسنده
چکیده
The standard inventory problems of multi-period have been modeled under different situations, namely we consider whether demand subjects to a continuous distribution or a discrete distribution and whether demand of each period is unchanged or not. A method to get an economic order quantity in inventory systems with discrete and unchanged demand was presented in former paper and this method has been generalized to an inventory model with a varying continuous demand. However it is not achieved because there are many cases in general situations. In this article the method as above is discussed in the case discrete demand is decreasing or increasing from period to period. A theoretical method is presented by using former results and some examples are given which suggests the concept how to handle our inventory system. An algorithm to make the decision is also presented under some conditions and examples are shown by a computer soft Mathematica in order to explain it. In general case we view the optimal policy in the inventory problem of a few periods.

An EPQ Model with Increasing Demand and Demand Dependent Production Rate under Trade Credit Financing
This paper investigates an EPQ model with the increasing demand and demand dependent production rate involving the trade credit financing policy, which is seldom reported in the literatures. The model considers the manufacturer was offered by the supplier a delayed payment time. It is assumed that the demand is a linear increasing function of the time and the production rate is proportional to ...

In this paper, we considered a deterministic inventory model with time-dependent demand and time-varying holding cost where deterioration is time proportional. The model considered here allows for shortages, and the demand is partially backlogged. The model is solved analytically by minimizing the total inventory cost. The result is illustrated with numerical example for the model. The model ca...

In this paper, an purchasing inventory model for deteriorating items is developed with a linear, positive trend in demand, allowing inventory shortages and backlogging. It is assumed that the goods in the inventory deteriorate over time at a constant rate . Two models are developed for two operational policies. The first policy covers the case that the inventory model with linear demand for det...

This paper presents an inventory model for deteriorating items in which shortages are allowed. It is assumed that the production rate is proportional to the demand rate and greater than demand rate. The inventory model is developed by considering four different circumstances. The optimal of the problem is obtained with the help of Mathematica 7 software. Numerical examples are given to illustra...

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 price...
