We also derive three upper bounds for the relative increase in cost if one uses the best (R, nQ) policy instead of the optimal (s, S) policy. One of these upper bounds (the most loose of those) can be expressed as the fraction of the variance-to-mean ratio of the geometric distribution and the economic order quantity. We explore numerically when these upper bounds are tight.","PeriodicalId":113309,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Inventory Research","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132752053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, multiple orders to the selected suppliers with different frequencies are allowed during a repeating order cycle. In this research, we propose a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model to find the optimal number of orders and corresponding order quantities for the selected suppliers that minimise the total replenishment and inventory cost per time unit under suppliers' capacity and quality constraints. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed MINLP model. We also compare the results of our model with those from other researchers, where at most one order can be allocated to each supplier per repeating order cycle.","PeriodicalId":113309,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Inventory Research","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130051649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on different R packages, it was not only possible to use copulas for modelling the dependence structure between decentralised demands, but also to randomly generate and optimise different scenarios for various product characteristics, thus finding the best pooling policy: inventory centralisation, regular transshipment, or independent systems. Results suggest a different pattern for the decision-making rationale involving correlation and inventory holding costs. While independent systems and regular transshipments seem to compensate for strong upper tail dependence structures, centralisation seems to compensate for strong lower tail ones.","PeriodicalId":113309,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Inventory Research","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129685897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The customers arrive according to a Poisson process. The demanded items are delivered to the customers after performing some service on the item and this service time is distributed as negative exponential. The ordering policy is (s; S) policy, that is, once the inventory level drops to a prefixed level, say s(≥ 0); an order for Q(= S − s) items is placed. The joint probability distribution of the number of busy servers, number of customers in the queue and the inventory level is obtained in the steady state case. The Laplace-Stieltjes transforms of the first passage time and of the waiting time of a tagged customer are derived. Various system performance are derived and the total expected cost rate is computed under a suitable cost structure.

To do this, we undertake a variance component analysis (VCA) of firm-level inventory turn, using a panel dataset of 1,531 unique Chinese firms spanning 1999-2008. Our identification arises from the fact that many locations have multiple firms and some firms have multiple locations. We find that city and province effects explain 18.4% and 6.3% of the variation in inventory turn respectively, constituting the most important effects after firm effects (50.0%) and ahead of year and industry effects. To understand why, we use seemingly unrelated regressions (SUR) to identify six city-specific effects that explain inventory turn. We then check how these effects impact inventory turn, by estimating how the effects-turn relationship is mediated by known drivers of inventory turn such as gross margin and lead time. For example, we find that distance from Beijing is associated with higher inventory turn via lower gross margins.","PeriodicalId":113309,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Inventory Research","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114072138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The retailer is risk averse and the supply chain is led by the upstream manufacturer. This paper studies two commonly seen contracts in the fashion industry, namely the pure wholesale pricing contract (PWPC) and the markdown money contract (MDMC). The efficient region for the risk averse retailer’s optimal ordering quantity for each contract is found and this region will: 1) become smaller if the wholesale price increases (under both PWPC and MDMC); 2) get larger when the markdown money increases (under MDMC). We introduce the concept of ‘risk averse quantity reduction level’ (RAQRL). Our analytical findings further indicate that: 1) under scenario one in which the manufacturer’s goal is to maximise the supply chain’s expected profit, the appropriately set MDMC can coordinate the supply chain whereas PWPC cannot; 2) under scenario two in which the manufacturer’s goal is to maximise the supply chain’s expected profit while ensuring the variance of profit is within a limit, both PWPC and MDMC can coordinate the supply chain.","PeriodicalId":113309,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Inventory Research","volume":"2020 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117289745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
