A two-storage model for deteriorating items with holding cost under inflation and Genetic Algorithms

A deterministic inventory model has been developed for deteriorating items and Genetic Algorithms (GA) having a ramp type demands with the effects of inflation with two-storage facilities. The owned warehouse (OW) has a fixed capacity of W units; the rented warehouse (RW) has unlimited capacity. Here, we assumed that the inventory holding cost in RW is higher than those in OW. Shortages in inventory are allowed and partially backlogged and Genetic Algorithms (GA) it is assumed that the inventory deteriorates over time at a variable deterioration rate. The effect of inflation has also been considered for various costs associated with the inventory system and Genetic Algorithms (GA). Numerical example is also used to study the behaviour of the model. Cost minimization technique is used to get the expressions for total cost and other parameters

An inventory model of instantaneous deteriorating items with controllable deterioration rate for time dependent demand and holding cost

Purpose: The purpose of this paper to develop an inventory model for instantaneous deteriorating items with the consideration of the facts that the deterioration rate can be controlled by using the preservation technology (PT) and the holding cost & demand rate both are linear function of time which was treated as constant in most of the deteriorating inventory model. Design/methodology/approach: Developed the mathematical equation of deterministic deteriorating inventory model in which demand rate and holding cost both is linear function of time, deterioration rate is constant, backlogging rate is variable and depend on the length of the next replenishment, shortages are allowed and partially backlogged and obtain an analytical solution which optimizes the total cost of the proposed inventory model. Findings: The model can be applied for optimizing the total inventory cost of deteriorating items inventory for such business enterprises where they use the preservation technology to control the deterioration rate under other assumptions of the model. Originality/value: The inventory system for deteriorating items has been an object of study for a long time, but little is known about the effect of investing in reducing the rate of product deterioration and their significant impact in the business. The proposed model is effective as well as efficient for the business organization that uses the preservation technology to reduce the deterioration rate of the instantaneous deteriorating items of the inventory.Peer Reviewe

Two-Warehouse Partial Backlogging Inventory Model For Deteriorating Items With Ramp Type Demand

This paper deals with two warehouse system for deteriorating items with ramp type demand. In this inventory model initially demand is considered to be linear function of time and it became constant after a finite time parameter. Holding cost assume to be constant in both warehouse. Partial backlogging is allowed. The proposed model is developing to minimize the total inventory cost which includes holding cost, backlogging cost, lost sale cost, and deterioration cost. Here three cases are taken into consideration depending on time where demand becomes constant. This is only an analytic approach towards the model. Keywords: - Two warehouse inventory, ramp type demand, holding cost, deteriorating item

Controllable deterioration rate for time-dependent demand and time-varying holding cost

In this paper, we develop an inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items under the consideration of the facts: deterioration rate can be controlled by using the preservation technology (PT) during deteriorating period, and holding cost and demand rate both are linear function of time, which was treated as constant in most of the deteriorating inventory models. So in this paper, we developed a deterministic inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items in which both demand rate and holding cost are a linear function of time, deterioration rate is constant, backlogging rate is variable and depend on the length of the next replenishment, shortages are allowed and partially backlogged. The model is solved analytically by minimizing the total cost of the inventory system. The model can be applied to optimizing the total inventory cost of non-instantaneous deteriorating items inventory for the business enterprises, where the preservation technology is used to control the deterioration rate, and demand & holding cost both are a linear function of time

A Two Warehouse Inventory Model with Stock-Dependent Demand and variable deterioration rate

In this paper we discuss a two warehouses inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items. Throughout last so many years, mostly researchers have consideration to the situation where the demand rate is dependent on the level of the on-hand inventory. For inventory systems, such as fashionable commodities, the length of the waiting time for the next replenishment would determine whether the backlogging will be accepted or not. In real life situation, enterprises usually buy more goods than can be stored in their own warehouses (OW) for future production or sales. The surplus quantities are frequently stored in an extra storage space, represented by rented warehouses (RW).The rented warehouse is considered to charge high unit holding cost than the own warehouse. The necessary and sufficient conditions of the existence and uniqueness of the optimal solution are shown. We determine the optimal replenishment policy for non-instantaneous deteriorating items with partial backlogging and stock-dependent demand

Optimal policy for multi-item systems with stochastic demands, backlogged shortages and limited storage capacity

Producción CientíficaIn this paper, an inventory model for multiple products with stochastic demands is developed. The scheduling period or inventory cycle is known and prescribed. Demands are independent random variables and they follow power patterns throughout the inventory cycle. For each product, an aggregate cycle demand is realized first and then the demand is released to the inventory system gradually according to power patterns within a cycle. These demand patterns express different ways of drawing units from inventory and can be a good approach to modelling customer demands in inventory systems. Shortages are allowed and they are fully backlogged. It is assumed that the warehouse where the items are stored has a limited capacity. For this inventory system, we determine the inventory policy that maximizes the expected profit per unit time. An efficient algorithmic approach is proposed to calculate the optimal inventory levels at the beginning of the inventory cycle and to obtain the maximum expected profit per unit time. This inventory model is applicable to on-line sales of a wide variety of products. In this type of sales, customers do not receive the products at the time of purchase, but sellers deliver goods a few days later. Also, this model can be used to represent inventories of products for in-shop sales when the withdrawal of items from the inventory is not at the purchasing time, but occurs in a period after the sale of the products. This inventory model extends various inventory systems studied by other authors. Numerical examples are introduced to illustrate the theoretical results presented in this work.Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades - Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (project MTM2017-84150-P

Deteriorating inventory model with quadratically time varying demand and partial backlogging

[EN] In this paper, a deterministic inventory model is developed for instantaneous deteriorating items in which shortages are allowed and partially backlogged. Deterioration rate is constant, demand rate is quadratic function of time and holding cost is linear function of time, backlogging rate is variable and depends on the length of the next replenishment. The model is solved analytically by minimizing the total inventory cost. This inventory model can also use as an inventory model for linear as well as constant demand rate by very small change in the incremental factor of the quadratic function. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the solution and application of the model.Mishra, VK. (2013).
