If I order too little, I make no profit. If I order
too much, I may go broke. Every product is

Inventory Decisions
with Certain Factors
1
Elements of Inventory Decisions
 There are four basic inventory system costs:




Ordering costs
Procurement costs
Inventory holding or carrying costs
Inventory shortage costs
 Demand is usually erratic and uncertain.
We assume it is smooth and predictable.
 That makes it easier to develop mathematical
models. These can later be made more realistic.
 Order quantity is the main variable.
 With no uncertainty, we can schedule deliveries
to arrive exactly when we run out.
2
The Economic Order Quantity
(EOQ) Model
 The decision variable is
Q = Order Quantity
 There are four parameters:
k = Fixed cost per order
A = Annual number of items demanded
c = Unit cost of procuring an item
h = Annual cost per dollar value of
holding items in inventory
 An order quantity is to be found that
minimizes:
Total
Ordering Holding Procurement
=
Annual cost
Cost + Cost +
Cost
3
The Economic Order Quantity
(EOQ) Model
 Inventory level has a cycle beginning with a
new shipment’s arrival.
T = Q/A = Duration of inventory cycle
4
The Economic Order Quantity
(EOQ) Model
 The annual ordering cost is the number of
orders times the cost per order:
 A
Annual ordering cost   k
Q
 The annual holding cost is the cost per item
held 1year times the average inventory:
Q

Annual holding cost  hc 
2
 The annual procurement cost is the product
of annual demand and unit cost:
Procurement cost = Ac
5

(EOQ) Model
 The total annual inventory cost is:
Q
 A

Total annual cost   k  hc   Ac
2
Q
 We drop Ac from the above, since that
amount will not vary with Q.
 Ac is not a relevant cost.
 That provides the function to be minimized,
the total annual relevant inventory cost:

The Economic Order Quantity
(EOQ) Model
 It may be shown using calculus that the
level for Q minimizing the above is the
economic order quantity
2 Ak

 Problem. A software store sells 500 Alien
Saboteurs annually. The supplier charges
$100 per order plus $20 each. It costs $.15
per dollar value to hold inventory for a year.
How many should they order, how often,
and at what annual relevant inventory cost?
7
The Economic Order Quantity
(EOQ) Model
Solution:
 The following parameters apply:
 A = 500
k = 100
c = 20
h = .15
 The economic order quantity is
2 Ak

Q* 

hc

 The inventory cycle duration is
T = Q/A = 183/500 = .366 year or 133.6 days
 The total annual relevant inventory cost is:

Optimal Inventory Policy
with Backordering
 Retailers may not stock all demand. Orders
placed during shortages are backordered.
9
Optimal Inventory Policy
with Backordering
 The new model adds the order level S, that
quantity on hand when a shipment arrives.
 A shortage cost applies, based on a penalty
p for being one item short for a year.
 New total annual relevant inventory cost:

Optimal Inventory Policy
with Backordering
 Shortage penalty p applies over a year, but
cost prorates to fractions of items or years.
 Example: The retailer suffers lost profit on
future business equal to $.05 each day that
one Alien Saboteur is on backorder. That
translates into p = $.05×365 = $18.25.
 Solution: The order quantity is computed:

= $253.81 + 217.47 + 36.31 = $507.59
 The above is smaller than before, even though
there is a shortage penalty and shortages. Why?
12
Optimal Inventory Policy
with Backordering
 There is a net savings in holding costs and a
slight reduction in ordering costs. Those
outweigh increased cost due to shortages.
 The number of backorders is Q – S. Here
that quantity is 197 – 169 = 28.
 The annual shortage cost is only $36.31,
because durations of shortage (for last of the
28) are only 28/197 = .142 year (52 days).
 The results suggest that:
 Retailers will run short, if they can get away
with it!
13
 But backordering must make sense.
Optimal Inventory Policy
with Backordering
 Nobody backorders cigarettes or gasoline.
 Sales for those products are lost during
shortages. This model does not apply for them.
 The shortage penalty p is not usually
known. But it may be imputed from
existing policy. The service level L is used
for that purpose:
L = proportion of time fully stocked
 The imputed shortage penalty is:
hcL
p =
1L
14
Economic Production-Quantity
Model
 The inventory model may be extended to
finding the optimal production quantity.
15
Economic Production-Quantity
Model
 The new parameter is the annual
production rate B.
 Parameter k is the production setup cost.
 The variable production cost per unit is c.
 The total annual relevant inventory cost:

 Example: Water Wheelies have annual demand of
A =100,000 units and are made at the rate of B =

and c = $5 variable. It costs h = $.40/year to tie
up a dollar.

More Elaborate Models
 Incorporate a second one-time shortage
penalty (done in Chapter 16).
 These models are for single products. Add
additional products.
 Incorporate uncertainty regarding:
 Demand (done in Chapter 16).
 Lead-time for delivery of order (Chapter 16).
 Incorporate lost sales (done in Chapter 16).
 Extend to single period products (Ch. 16).
 NOTE: The basic EOQ model works very
well even when its ideal conditions don’t
18
apply. It is very robust.

The fixed order cost has a diminishing effect on the
results. For example, a 100% increase in k causes
both Q* and TC(Q)* to increase by only 41%.
