We examine global dynamics under infinite-horizon learning in New Keynesian models where monetary policy practices either pricelevel or nominal GDP targeting and compare these regimes to inflation targeting. These interest-rate rules are subject to the zero lower bound. Robustness of the three rules in learning adjustment are compared using criteria for the domain of attraction of the targeted ...

We study a periodic-review inventory model where, in addition to the procurement quantity, price is also a decision variable. We develop a model where demand in each period is a random variable having a priceand, possibly, period-dependent probability distribution, with the expected demand decreasing in price. The model includes price limits and "xed ordering costs in addition to unit procureme...

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...

The focus of manufacturing planning and control has gradually expanded from (in-house) production activities towards all manufacturing and logistic activities in the supply chain. Planning of in-house operations is still very important, but the trends towards increased use of outsourcing and mass customisation require that customers and suppliers are able to exchange information frequently to c...

This paper deals with an optimal ordering policy for non-deteriorating item with power demand under trade credits. The shortages are allowed and combination of backlogged and lost sales. Mathematical model is developed under two different situations, i.e., case 1: the permissible delay period is less than time to finish positive inventory and case 2 trade credit period is greater than or equal ...

This paper addresses the single-item, non-stationary stochastic demand inventory control problem under the nonstationary (R,S) policy. In non-stationary (R,S) policies two sets of control parameters—the review intervals, which are not necessarily equal, and the order-up-to-levels for replenishment periods—are fixed at the beginning of the planning horizon to minimize the expected total cost. It...
