Example 1
• The South Face store has observed a stable monthly
demand for its line of Gore-Tex jackets of 100 jackets per
month. The store incurs a fixed cost of $2,000 every time
it places an order for additional jackets. The store pays
$200 per jacket. The store’s out-of-pocket costs of storing
a jacket for a year are about 20% and the opportunity cost
of capital is 15%.
• What order size do you recommend for the South Face
store?

Practice
• One of the top-selling items in a shop is an ADSL
modem clock. Sales are 18 units/week, and the
supplier charges $60/unit. The cost of placing an
order with the supplier is $45. Annual holding cost is
25% of a modem’s value and the shop operates 52
weeks/year. Management chose a 390-unit lot size
so that new orders could be placed less frequently.
1. What is the annual cost of the current policy of
using a 390-unit lot size? Would a lot size of 468 be
better?
2. Calculate the EOQ and its total cost. How
frequency will orders be placed if the EOQ is used?

• Inventory performance:
• Inventory turn over (2019) = Cost of good sold
(2019)/ Avg. Inventory
• Avg Inv 2019 = Inventory (1/1/2019) +
Inventory (31/11/2019)
• Income statement: 2019, 2020 (period)
• Balance sheet/ Finance statement: 31/12/2019
( specific time), 31/12/2020 ~ 1/1/ 2021

EOQ with discount
The annual demand for an item is 40,000 units.
The cost to process an order is $40 and the annual inventory
holding cost is $3 per item per year.
What is the optimal order quantity, given the following price breaks
for purchasing the item?
a. What is the optimal behavior?
b. Does the firm take advantage of the lowest price available? Explain.
Quantity Price
1-1,499 $2.50 per unit

POQ
• D: 20,000 units/year.
• Number of working days: 250 days/year.
• Production capacity: 100 units/ day
• Production Leadtime: 4 days.
• Unit production cost 50$,
• Holding cost: 10$/unit/ year.
• Preparation for setup: 20$.
• Q*, TBP, ROP, TC?

Inventory model for
unconstant/ unstable demand:
18
Replenishment Policies
• Continuous Review: Order fixed quantity when total
inventory drops below Reorder Point => fixed order
quantity
• Periodic Review: Order at fixed time intervals to raise
total inventory to Order up to Level=> fixed interval
D~ unstable demand => average demand
Standard deviation of demand, Normal distribution
Service level ~ prob. Of available inventory vs. ( 1- prob. )
~ stockout/ no inventory

Continuous Review (Q) System
• Assumption of “constant demand” is relaxed.
• Monitoring of “on hand” stock position in a
continuous system
• Information needed to determine:
– ROP: Re-Order Point
– Service-level
– Safety Stock
– Q*, TC*

Determining R
• Lead time = 1.5 weeks = 1.5/50 years
• Demand during lead time = D L
= (1.5)[(1200 units/year)/ (50 weeks)]
= 36 units
➔ Set R = 36 jackets Inventory

Practice
• Demand for chicken soup at a supermarket is
25 cases a day and the lead time is 4 days.
The selves were just restocked with chicken
soup , leaving an on-hand inventory of only 10
cases. There are no backorders, but there is
one open order ( scheduled receipts) for 200
cases. What is the inventory position? Should
a new order be placed?

Safety Stocks and Service Level
Service level = P(no stock out)
= P(demand during lead time < R)
= NORMDIST(R, L D, SQRT(L)sr)
→ z = NORMSINV (Service level)
Safety stock: s = zs r L
Safety stock decreases with a decrease in:
– Demand variability or forecast error
– Avg. delivery lead time
– Desired level of service

R=LD+s Summary
Demand over lead time = L x D
Safety Stock = s = zs r L
Standard deviation = sqrt( sum (Dt-ave.)2/n-1)
Z: look at value of Z for N(P) p: prob. Of service
level. ; service level= 95%, p= 0.95, z~ 1.6
Service level = P(demand over lead time < R)
Q*= sqrt(2 xD x S/ H)
TC = Average inventory x H+ (DS)/Q
Average inventory = Q/2 + s

Example 3
• The South Face has 4 warehouses. Each
warehouse faces weekly demand with mean = 5,000
and standard deviation = 500. SF’s order leadtime is
two weeks. Fixed order costs are $10,000/order and
it costs $10 to hold one jacket in inventory for one
year. SF wants the stockout probability to be no
higher than 5% for customer satisfaction. What
ordering policy do you recommend for SF
– What should safety stock be to insure a desired service
level ?
– When should be re-order?
34
Practice
• Suppose that the average demand is 18
units/week with a standard deviation of 5
units. The lead time is constant at 2 weeks.
Determine the safety stock and reorder point if
the management wants a 90% cycle service
level. What is the total cost of the Q system?

Ex.
• S= $4,500/ order
• C= $250/ unit
• H= 18%/year
• L= 2 weeks
• Service level = 97%
• SS, ROP, Q*, TC*

Periodic Review System
• All assumption of EOQ (except that demand is
constant and “no stockout”) remains in effect.
• Also known as “P System” or “Fixed-order-
Interval System”
38

Example
• There is a backorder of five 36-inch color TV
sets at a distribution center. There is no on-
hand inventory, and now is the time to review.
How much should be reordered if T = 400
units and there is no scheduled receipts?
42
Solution
IP = OH + SR – BO = 0 + 0 – 5 = -5
Q = T – IP = 405 sets

Example
• A gift shop has an inventory problem. One of the top-selling items
is a birdfeeder. Sales are normally distributed with a mean of 18
units per week, and a standard deviation in weekly demand of 5
units. The lead time is 2 weeks, and the business operates 52
weeks/year. The EOQ is 75 units and a safety stock is 9 units for a
cycle-service level of 90%. he supplier charges $60/unit. The cost
of placing an order with the supplier is $45. Annual holding cost is
25% of a feeder’s value. Management chose a 390-unit lot size so
that new orders could be placed less frequently. What is the
annual total cost of the current policy of using a 390-unit lot size?
What is the equivalent P system?
45
Example
• We have:
D = (18 units/week)(52 weeks/year)=936 units
EOQ 75
P= (52) = (52) = 4.2 (weeks)
D 936
• Standard deviation of demand over the protection interval
(P+L):
s P + L = s t P + L = 5 6 = 12 units
• For a 90% cycle-service level, z = 1.28, we have:
T = d ( P + L) + zs P + L = (18 units/week)(6 weeks) + 1.28(12 units)=123 units
• Total cost is:
4(18) 936
TC = ($15) + ($45) + 15($15) = $1,350

Practice
• Suppose that a P system is used at the warehouse. The warehouse operates
5 days per week, 52 weeks/year. The following data are estimated for 3/8-
inch hand drills with double insulation and variable speeds:
• Average daily demand = 100 drills
• Standard deviation of daily demand = 30 drills
• Lead time = 3 days
• Holding cost = $9.4/unit/year
• Ordering cost = $35/order
• Cycle service level = 92%
a. Calculate P that gives approximately the same number of orders per year as
the EOQ
b. What is the value of T?
c. It is time to review the item, If OH = 40 units, SR = 440 drills, BO = 0 , How
much should be reordered?
