This investigation presents an economic production quantity (EPQ) model for deteriorating items with stock-dependent demand and shortages. It is assumed that a constant fraction of the on-hand inventory deteriorates and demand rate depends upon the amount of the stock level. Expression for various optimal indices as well as cost analysis are provided. By taking numerical illustration, sensitivi...

This research is derived an integrated model of economic production quantity, inspection and preventive maintenance to incorporate rework, minimal repair and inspection time for an imperfect production system. Some proportions of non-conforming items are assumed scrap before the rework process start and others are reworked. The rework process is imperfect that is a proportion of the reworked it...

In this paper, an purchasing inventory model for deteriorating items is developed with a linear, positive trend in demand, allowing inventory shortages and backlogging. It is assumed that the goods in the inventory deteriorate over time at a constant rate . Two models are developed for two operational policies. The first policy covers the case that the inventory model with linear demand for det...
