The EOQ indicates the optimal number of units to order to minimize the total cost associated with the purchase, delivery, and storage of a product. EOQ applies only when demand for a product is constant over a period of time (such as a year) and each new order is delivered in full when inventory reaches zero. There is a fixed cost for each ...
Its is a class of inventory control models that generalize and combine elements of both the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model and the base stock model. [2] The (Q,r) model addresses the question of when and how much to order, aiming to minimize total inventory costs, which typically include ordering costs, holding costs, and shortage costs.
Demand for items from inventory is continuous and at a constant rate; Production runs to replenish inventory are made at regular intervals; During a production run, the production of items is continuous and at a constant rate; Production set-up/ordering cost is fixed (independent of quantity produced) The lead time is fixed
In a base-stock system inventory position is given by on-hand inventory-backorders+orders and since inventory never goes negative, inventory position=r+1. Once an order is placed the base stock level is r+1 and if X≤r+1 there won't be a backorder. The probability that an order does not result in back-order is therefore:
EBQ is basically a refinement of the economic order quantity (EOQ) model to take into account circumstances in which the goods are produced in batches. [1] [2] The goal of calculating EBQ is that the product is produced in the required quantity and required quality at the lowest cost. [3] [4] [5]
Planning data. This includes all the restraints and directions to produce such items as: routing, labor and machine standards, quality and testing standards, pull/work cell and push commands, lot sizing techniques (i.e. fixed lot size, lot-for-lot, economic order quantity), scrap percentages, and other inputs.
The reorder point (ROP), also reorder level (ROL) or "optimal re-order level", [1] is the level of inventory which triggers an action to replenish that particular inventory. It is a minimum amount of an item which a firm holds in stock, such that, when stock falls to this amount, the item must be reordered.
Material theory (or more formally the mathematical theory of inventory and production) is the sub-specialty within operations research and operations management that is concerned with the design of production/inventory systems to minimize costs: it studies the decisions faced by firms and the military in connection with manufacturing, warehousing, supply chains, spare part allocation and so on ...
