Rekha Rani Chaudhary, Vikas Sharma, Urvashi Chaudhary . Optimal Inventory Model for Time Dependent Decaying Items with Stock Dependent Demand Rate and Shortages. International Journal of Computer Applications. 79, 17 ( October 2013), 6-9. DOI=10.5120/13959-1568
This paper deals with in developing an inventory model for time dependent decaying items as bread, food stuff, green vegetables and medicine etc. The rate of deterioration is time dependent and considers a linear function of time. Demand rate is stock dependent in linear form. It is a common phenomenon observed in the super market that a large pile of goods attracts more customers. Shortages are allowed and shortages are completely backlogged. The numerical example is given to illustrate the model developed. The model is solved analytically by maximizing the total profit.
