The present work deals with the supply chain problems related to perishable products. The EOQ model has been used to analyze the data collected and suggest a ordering policy that will minimize the loses and maximize the organizational value. The work provides a suggestion for managers to take decision regarding use of self space and reordering of items depending on the inventory usage.

Summary A cross-cultural translation of the Vespid Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire (VQLQ) to the Portuguese population (VQLQ-P) was performed, assessing its applicability in wasp and in non-beekeeper bee venom allergic patients. Additionally, we evaluated a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to estimate hymenoptera allergy interference with daily life. Methods. Cross-cultural translation was per...

Since the past century, when the first economic order quantity (EOQ) formula was introduced, many researchers have tried to develop and extend the first version to adapt with real world situations. One of these extensions is considering the inventory system in imprecise business and industrial environment. To do so, fuzzy set theory has fruitfully been integrated with EOQ models. This combinati...

We study an EOQ inventory model with demand rate and holding cost rate per unit time, both potentially dependent on the stock level. The ordering cost, the holding cost and the gross profit from the sale of the item are considered. The objective is to maximize the average profit per unit time. We present the analytical formulation of the problem and demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of t...

Inventory management is the core of supply chain system, in which economic order quantity (EOQ) model a fundamental inventory model. This paper develops fuzzy EOQ presence inspection errors single sampling plans. The assumes probability mis-classifications. An system hypothesized where orders undergo acceptance sampling, back-orders are eliminated, and defectives set aside from inventory. Due t...
