Abstract

This paper presents an inventory model with linearly time dependent rate and shortages under trade credits. We show that the total cost per unit is convex function of time. Some properties have also been discussed based an optimal solution. The results are discussed with the help of numerical examples. Sensitivity analyses with a variety of numerical results showing the effect of model parameters on key performance measures are demonstrated. Mathematica 7 software is used for finding numerical solutions.
