Review Optimal (Q,R):
Solution Procedure • The optimal solution procedure requires iterating between the two equations for Q and R until convergence occurs (which is generally quite fast). • A cost effective approximation is to set Q=EOQ and find R from the second equation. • In this class, we will use the approximation.
Solution Procedure • Exact procedure: • Approximation:
Example • Selling mustard jars • Jars cost $10, replenishment lead time 6 months • Holding cost 20% per year • Loss-of-goodwill cost $25 per jar • Order setup $50 • Lead time demand N(100, 25)
