需求变化的多阶段EOQ订购策略

多阶段库存管理是供应链研究的重要课题,其中独立需求的订购策略问题,现有文献一般设定计划期内各阶段需求且计划执行过程中需求不再变化,给出了相应的算法.本文选择EOQ模型作为基本订购策略,研究下面一类需求变化的多阶段订购策略问题：给定费用参数（物资单价、一次订货费用、单位库存保管费用）的情况下,在订购计划执行过程中,在阶段i（1＜i＜m）需要调整阶段m的需求,而其它阶段的需求不变,订购策略如何调整,使得库存总费用最低.     

The inventory models under conditional trade credit in a supply chain system

In several recent investigations dealing with the economic order quantity with permissible delay in payments, the following assumptions are made:     

Inventory returns and special sales in a lot-size system with constant rate of deterioration

The problem of returning or of selling the inventory excess to optimal stock level is considered for deteriorating items. Two inventory models, viz. the infinite and the finite horizon models, are developed, in which the deterioration is assumed to be a constant fraction of the on hand inventory. Both the models are developed under the assumptions of instantaneous delivery and no shortages. When there is no deterioration, the developed models are related to the corresponding inventory models for non-deteriorating items. Examples are given to illustrate the derived results.     

Supplier diversification under binomial yield

We consider supplier diversification in an EOQ type inventory setting with multiple suppliers and binomial yields. We characterize the optimal policy for the model and show that, in this case, it does not pay to diversify, in contrast to previous results in the random yield literature.

Solving a finite horizon EPQ problem with backorders

This paper presents an alternative approach to solve a finite horizon production lot sizing model with backorders using Cauchy-Bunyakovsky-Schwarz Inequality. The optimal batch size is derived from a sequence number of batches. We prove that a constant batch size policy with one fill rate is better than the variable batch sizes with variable fill rates. Finally, a practical approach is proposed to find the optimal solutions for a discrete planning horizon and discrete batch sizes.     

A note on supplier diversification under random yield

Fad?lo?lu et al. and Tajbakhsh et al. consider supplier diversification in an EOQ type inventory setting with multiple suppliers and binomial yield and show that working with a single supplier is always optimal. In this short note, we present an alternative and more elegant proof of the optimality of sole sourcing in the EOQ model with general random yield.     

Lot‐sizing policies for deterioration items under two‐level trade credit with partial trade credit to credit‐risk retailer and limited storage capacity

The main purpose of this article is to investigate the optimal wholesaler's replenishment decisions for deterioration items under two levels of the trade credit policy and two storage facilities in order to reflect the supply chain management situation within the economic order quantity framework. In this study, each of the following assumptions have been made: (1) The own warehouse with limited capacity always is not sufficient to store the order quantity, so that a rented warehouse is needed to store the excess units over the capacity of the own warehouse; (2) The wholesaler always obtains the partial trade credit, which is independent of the order quantity offered by the supplier, but the wholesaler offers the full trade credit to the retailer; (3) The wholesaler must take a loan to pay his or her supplier the partial payment immediately when the order is received and then pay off the loan with the entire revenue. Under these three conditions, the wholesaler can obtain the least costs. Furthermore, this study models the wholesaler's optimal replenishment decisions under the aforementioned conditions in the supply chain management. Two theorems are developed to efficiently determine the optimal replenishment decisions for the wholesaler. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the theorems that are proven in this study, and the sensitivity analysis with respect to the major parameters in this study is performed.

Price-sensitive demand for perishable items - an EOQ model

This paper develops a finite time-horizon deterministic EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) model where the rate of demand decreases quadratically with selling price. Prices at different periods are considered as decision variables. The objective is to find the optimal ordering quantity and optimal sales prices that maximizes the vendor’s total profit. The results are discussed with numerical examples. Sensitivity analysis of the optimal solution with respect to the key parameters of the system is carried out.
