Abstract: Discusses the Economic Batch Quantity (EBQ) model with uniform, deterministic and finite production rate and demand. The EBQ, which minimizes the total annual cost comprising setup cost, and inventory holding cost is derived. The operation of EBQ system under non?zero constant lead time is discussed. Finally, a brief discussion ... More
