Abstract

Motivated by a desire to calculate the optimal credit limit for a credit card account in terms of the card-holder’s purchasing behaviour, we consider a single-period inventory model in which the total value of all attempted purchases increases in jumps throughout the period. If a purchase does not cause the limit to be exceeded, then that purchase is approved and the total value of approved purchases is increased by its value. On the other hand, if the limit is exceeded, then the purchase is rejected and the total value of approved purchases remains at its previous level.
