Abstract
We propose a hybrid heuristic method to solve the problem of determining the timing and size of replenishments in order to minimize the total replenishment and inventory holding costs in the case of a deterministic demand pattern having a linear trend. The method obtains the optimal solutions in the two examples most widely used in this journal.
