A finite time horizon inventory problem for a deteriorating item having two separate warehouses, one is a own warehouse (OW) of finite dimension and other a rented warehouse (RW), is developed with interval-valued lead-time under inflation and time value of money. Due to different preserving facilities and storage environment, inventory holding cost is considered to be different in different wa...

A stock is an asset if it can react to economic and seasonal influences in the management of the current assets. The financial manager must calculate the input of funds to the stock intelligently and the amount of money cycled through stocks, taking into account the time factors in the future. The purpose of this paper is to propose an inventory model considering issues of crash cost and curren...

Demand for a seasonal product persists for a fixed period of time. Normally the “finite time horizon inventory control problems” are formulated for this type of demands. In reality, it is difficult to predict the end of a season precisely. It is thus represented as an uncertain variable and known as random planning horizon. In this paper, we present a production-inventory model for deterioratin...

The paper tests the proposition that money generates value in trade. It examines the data for 5,746 Russian companies for 1997 and finds that money accounts for 24.6 percent of their value-added. The functional form of the return on money in trade is determined to be positive and marginally declining. The paper imputes that Russian GDP lost 8.1 percent in 1997 because of diminished use of money...
