An EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) model for a deteriorating item with quadratic demand pattern and quadratic holding cost and constant deterioration rate is considered in this paper. In addition, shortages and partial backlogging are allowed. It is assumed that the backlogging rate acts as not only a variable, but also depends on the length of the waiting time up to next replenishment during the...

This paper deals with the problem of determining the optimal retailer’s replenishment decisions for deteriorating items under two levels of trade credit policy within the economic order quantity (EOQ) framework to reflect the supply chain management situation. We investigate the retailer's inventory system as a cost minimization problem to determine the retailer's optimal inventory policy under...

This paper describes two heuristics for the basic economic order quantity and economic production quantity with partial backordering that use the time between orders and the percentage of demand filled from stock as the decision variables. Tests of the heuristics on a set of problems generated by using different values for six situational characteristics indicate that both heuristics should per...

In this paper, an economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model for a deteriorating item is developed with the following characteristics: (i) The demand rate is deterministic and two-staged, i.e., it is constant in first part of the cycle and linear function of time in the second part. (ii) Deterioration rate is time-proportional. (iii) Shortages are not allowed to occur. The o...

Seeing the rapid development of construction world, as part Indonesian economy, we need to support growth various facilities and infrastructure. In its growth, it must also improve quality in all respects. this case, material management plays an essential role process. The method chosen for problem is Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) method. most economical amount inventory can be determined by ca...

This paper corrects an improper expression in the economic order quantity (EOQ) model with two-warehouses and imperfect quality developed by Chung et al. [2009. A twowarehouse inventory model with imperfect quality production processes. Computers & Industrial Engineering 56, 193-197]. The modiT ed model yields a simple and corrected expression for the optimal order quantity and expected proT t ...

Deciding shipment size is important in freight transport: it depends on the logistical imperatives of shippers and the technical possibilities of carriers. Shipment size choice is also closely related to transportation mode; it is therefore important from a public policy perspective. The theory of optimal shipment size and mode choice is robust. There are many inventory-theoretical models of op...

In a previous International Journal of Production Economics article, a comparative model was presented for inventory costs of purchasing under economic order quantity (EOQ) with quantity discounts and a just-in-time (JIT) order purchasing system. This paper expands the comparative model to include a relevant cost component not considered in the previous article. The results of the revised model...
