Abstract

We developed this inventory model under price dependent demand in stochastic environment. Here probabilistic lead time is considered and shortages are allowed (if occur) over a finite time horizon. Generalising the work of Maiti et al. (2009) more precisely, we consider this model with just-in-time set up cost where deterioration is taken into account and backlogging rate has been considered as a negative exponential function of the waiting time. Taking all these into account, mathematical expression for expected average profit is derived. A closed form of analytic solution for maximising the expected average profit function is obtained when demand is constant. Numerical examples are carried out to identify the most sensitive parameter.
