Abstract

In this chapter, an inventory policy of the item with maximum fixed life-time is studied where two levels of trade credit depend on the order quantity. We consider the inventory system in which the supplier is ready to give a mutually agreed credit period to the retailer only if the order quantity purchased by the retailer is larger than the predetermined order quantity. Moreover, to be more practical, the retailer offers a credit limit to the customers. Here, price and time-sensitive demand are debated under the inflationary environment over the finite time horizon. In this study, the shortage is allowed and it is fully backordered. The main objective is to maximize the total profit of the retailer to the fraction of the replenishment cycle and the number of replenishments during the planning horizon. The model is supported by numerical examples. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to derive insights for decision-makers.
