Abstract

Study’s Excerpt/Novelty

  • This study introduces a novel economic order quantity (EOQ) model for managing non-instantaneous deteriorating items under two-phase demand rates and linear holding costs, incorporating constant partial backlogging and two-level pricing strategies within a trade credit framework.
  • The model uniquely addresses the complexities of time-dependent quadratic demand before deterioration and constant demand afterward, providing optimal solutions for maximizing total profit by determining the best timing for positive inventory, cycle length, and order quantity.
  • The research not only establishes the theoretical existence and uniqueness of these optimal solutions but also demonstrates practical implications through numerical examples and sensitivity analyses, highlighting the critical impact of deterioration rates on inventory management and profitability.

Full Abstract

This research developed an economic order quantity model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items with two-phase demand rates, linear holding cost, constant partial backlogging rate and two-level pricing strategies under trade credit policy.  It is assumed that the holding cost is linear time-dependent, the unit selling price before deterioration sets in is greater than that after deterioration sets and the demand rate before deterioration sets in is considered as continuous time-dependent quadratic, after which it is considered as constant up to when the inventory is completely exhausted.  Shortages are allowed and partially backlogged.  The purpose of the model is to determine the optimal time with positive inventory, cycle length and order quantity such that the total profit of the inventory system has a maximum value.  The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the optimal solutions have been established.  Some numerical examples have been given to illustrate the theoretical result of the model.  Sensitivity analysis of some model parameters on the decision variables has been carried out and suggestions towards maximising the total profit were also given. , it is seen that the higher the rate of deterioration  the lower the optimal time with positive inventory ( ), cycle length order quantity  and the total profit  and vice versa.  This implies that the retailer needs to take all the necessary measures to avoid or reduce deterioration to maximise higher profit.  Based on the results application of the model led to an increase in revenue.
