Optimal Production-Inventory Policy under Energy Buy-Back Program
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a production-inventory model with setup cost for production and financial compensation for stopping production when the buy-back program is activated, which is a modified model to that of [Chen et al 2007] by including the setup cost. Under an energy buyback program, we consider M+1 types of market scenarios and the corresponding buy-back levels with different financial compensations determined by the specific supply-demand condition. We show that the optimal production-inventory policy is of an (s,S) type for all market scenarios. The inclusion of setup cost in the proposed model may better depict the real-world scenario and help the manufacturers make more reasonable decisions.

A joint pricing and inventory control problem under an energy buy-back program
The demand for power keeps rising with rapid economic development and growth of industrialization. The frequent mismatch created between demand and supply can be mitigated by the use of energy buyback programs. This papermodels a buy-back programusing a periodic review joint pricing and inventory model, incorporating compensations and setup cost over finite planning horizons. It is shown that a...
متن کاملOptimization of two-stage production/inventory systems under order base stock policy with advance demand information
It is important to share demand information among the members in supply chains. In recent years, production and inventory systems with advance demand information (ADI) have been discussed, where advance demand information means the information of demand which the decision maker obtains before the corresponding actual demand arrives. Appropriate production and inventory control using demand info...
متن کاملA Dynamic Inventory Model with the Right of Refusal
We consider a dynamic inventory (production) model with general order (production) costs and excess demand that can be backordered or refused by the rm. A unit backordered incurs a backorder cost, a unit refused incurs a lost sales charge. Endogenizing the sales decision is necessary in the presence of general convex order costs so that the rm is not forced to backorder a unit whose subsequent ...

This paper presents the economic production quantity (EPQ) models for the imperfect quality items produced with/without the presence of shortage condition. The models are presented in a two-level supply chain composed of a single manufacturer and a single buyer to investigate the performance of vendormanaged inventory (VMI) policy. The total costs are minimized to obtain the optimal production ...

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 ...
