Abstract: |
noindent In this paper, we propose an appropriate inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items over quadratic demand rate with permissible delay in payments and time dependent deterioration rate. In this model, the completely backlogged shortages are allowed. In several existing results, the authors discussed that the deterioration rate is constant in each cycle. However, the deterioration rate of items are not constant in real world applications. Motivated by this fact, we consider that the items are deteriorated with respect to time. To minimize the total relevant inventory cost, we prove some useful theorems to illustrate the optimal solutions by finding an optimal cycle time with the necessary and enough conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the optimal solutions. Finally, we discuss the numerical instance and sensitivity of the proposed model. |
