Inventory Management Ross L. Fink
EOQ Models • For continuous replenishment systems • Family of models using cost minimization approach • Will look at only the simplest model, but approach can be applied to a variety of situations
Holding Cost • Let Q = order size • Average inventory size = (max.-min.)/2 • =(Q-0)/2 = Q/2 • Let H = cost to hold one unit for one year • Average annual inventory cost =(Q/2)H
Ordering Cost • Let D = annual demand • Let S = cost per order • Average number of orders per year = D/Q • Average annual ordering cost = (D/Q)S
Shortage Cost • In simple model = 0
Purchase Cost • Let P = price per unit • Average annual purchase cost = PD
Assumptions • Constant known demand • Constant known lead time • Instantaneous replenishment • Fixed known cost per order • Constant fixed price per unit--no quantity discounts
Solution Methods • Spreadsheet • Calculus
ROP Perpetual inventory system Each item has different order interval Uses less safety stock Fixed Time Period Periodic inventory count Can group ordering periods--order multiple items Uses more safety stock ROP v. Fixed Time Period
Safety Stock Requirements • Variability of demand during lead time for ROP. Variability of demand during lead time and order interval for fixed time period. • Lead time • Variability of lead time • Service level
ABC Inventory Analysis • Classifies inventory items to determine level of control needed • Rank items by annual dollar volume (annual purchase cost) • A = top 15% -- substantial control • B = next 35% -- some control • C = bottom 50% -- little control (generally)
