Abstract:Perishable product inventory management is a challenging issue because of its direct effect on companies' profits. The dependence of a product order cost on the order quantity is one of the practical but less examined assumptions in this problem literature. Hence, this paper considers the dependency between the order cost and order quantity as well as between the holding cost and the inventory level. This problem will have a non-convex object, and is not solvable through the usual mathematical methods. Thus, s… Show more
