We developed an inventory model for decaying items with selling price dependent demand in inflationary environment. Deterioration rate is taken as two parameter Weibull distribution. Shortages in inventory are allowed with partial backlogging. Backlogging rate is taken as exponential decreasing function of time. Profit maximization technique is used in this study.

Abstract. In this paper, a production inventory model is developed for the business enterprise which consists of three wings. The first wing is for manufacturing new items, the second wing is for collecting the returned items, while third wing is for remanufacturing the returned item. In this model we consider the fact that the storage item is deteriorated during storage periods and salvage val...

In recent years, various researchers have discussed a two warehouse inventory system. This kind of system was first discussed by Hartely (1976) [10]. Hartely presented a basic two-warehouse model, in which the cost of transporting a unit from rented warehouse (RW) to own warehouse (OW) was not considered. Sarma (1983)[20] developed a deterministic inventory model with infinite replenishment rat...

Different from the previous articles on multi-echelon deteriorating inventory, this paper explains economic implications of Weibull parameters for cold chain inventory rather than restricting to mathematical sense. A case study shows that DC warehousing activities and total throughput scale factor has a significant effect profit compared with storage technology environment shape factor. The imp...

In most of the classical inventory models the demand is considered as constant. In this paper the model has been framed to study the items whose demand and deterioration both are constant. The authors developed a model to determine an optimal order quantity by using calculus technique of maxima and minima. Thus, it helps a retailer to decide its optimal ordering quantity under the constraints o...

The paper addresses an inventory model of pharmaceutical products where the demand rate of the customers increases with the volume of the initiatives of the sales team. In this model, the deterioration of the product varies depending on on-hand inventory. The volume of sales team initiatives is a control variable. It is dependent on on-hand inventory and vice versa. The profit function of the f...

Abstract -In this paper, we developed a fuzzy optimal replenishment policy for Inventory models of Weibull Deterioration items with Ramp type Demand under permissible delay in payments. Deterioration of items begins on their arrival in stock. The shortages are allowed and partially backlogged. All the inventory costs involved in this model are taken as triangular fuzzy numbers. Replenishment cy...

In his paper a deterministic two warehouse Electronic component inventory model for deteriorating items, timedependent demand, variable holding cost and vector evaluated genetic algorithm has been developed under assumption that the Electronic component inventory cost including time-dependent demand, holding cost, vector evaluated genetic algorithm and deterioration cost in Rented Warehouse is ...
