In this study a deterministic inventory model for deteriorating items with stock dependent demand is developed. In this model the shortages are allowed and partially backlogged and the effect of inflation rate and delay in payments are discussed. This paper establishes an inventory model for the deteriorating items and stock dependent demand rate under inflation when the supplier offers a permi...

Supply chain management (SCM) consists of various components such as: supplier, manufacturer, factories, warehouses, distributions agents etc. These components are involved in various activities such as: supplying raw materials, manufacturing and distribution of the finished product to the final customer. The selection of right distributor is very important activity in SCM. This paper focuses o...

In this paper we study a periodic review inventory model with stock dependent demand. When stock on hand is zero, the inventory manager offers a price discount to customers who are willing to backorder their demand. Permissible delay in payments allowed to the inventory manager is also taken into account. Numerical examples are cited to illustrate the model.

Abstract: In today’s world the financial decisions of any business/retail enterprise are very crucial, as from the financial standpoint, an inventory i.e., stock on display represents a capital investment and must compete with other assets for a firm’s limited capital funds. Moreover, rising inflation rate directly affects the financial situation of an organization. On the contrary, the today’s...

A three-step algorithm is presented for discrete gate sizing problem of delay/area optimization under double-sided timing constraints. The problem is rst formulated as a linear program. The solution to the linear program is then mapped onto a permissible set. Using this permissible set, the gate sizes are adjusted to satisfy the delay lower and upper bounds simultaneously.

This paper investigates a food supply chain model consisting of the supplier, producer and multi-retailer deteriorating item under fully delay-in-payment partial advance payment scheme. The deterioration rate raw material is dependent on temperature other environmental factors with respect to time. Here, prepares after collecting from supplier then storing it in cold storage. refrigeration cost...

A recent survey by the American Dental Association found 51% of responding dentists reporting declining income, 53% reporting increases in open appointment time--marked by rising numbers of cancellations and “no-shows” –and 45% reporting that their gross billings have fallen. In a business where many payments come directly from the family’s checkbook, there has been a sharp decline in those who...

This article proposes a two-level fuzzy supply chain inventory model, in which single consignor delivers multiple items to the consignees with consignment stock agreement. The lead time is incorporated into model and considered variable for obtaining optimal replenishment decisions. In addition, crashing cost employed reduce duration. investigates four different cases under controllable analyze...
