    Authors: Shukla, P R;

    Reference No: PROD0175(D)TEC Pages: 12 Published on: 1, January, 1982

    Abstract: Discusses the models for determining Economic Order Quantities (EOQs) for items in a multi?item situation with constraints. The derivation of EOQs for items under the constraint of average total investment in inventories is given. The EOQs for items where there is a constraint on total workload (i.e., number ... More
