Types of Inventory
10. Inventory and Supply Chain
Bullwhip effect
demand information is distorted
from the end-use customer
as it moves away
higher safety stock inventories to are stored
compensate
Seasonal or cyclical demand
to
Inventory provides independence from vendors
Take advantage of price discounts
Inventory provides independence between
stages and avoids work stop-pages

Inventory and Supply
Management
11. Customers usually perceive quality
service as availability of goods they want
when they want them
Inventory must be sufficient to provide
high-quality customer service in TQM

Inventory and Quality

12. Carrying cost
cost of holding an item in inventory
Ordering cost
cost of replenishing inventory
Shortage cost
temporary or permanent loss of

Inventory Costs
13. Inventory Control Systems
Continuous system (fixed-
order-quantity)
constant amount ordered
when inventory declines to
predetermined level
Periodic system (fixed-time-
period)
order place
amount after fixed passage of
time

14. Economic Order Quantity
EOQ
optimal order quantity that will
minimize total inventory costs
Basic EOQ model
Production quantity model

Economic Order Quant
(EOQ) Models
15. Demand is known with certainty and
is constant over time
No shortages are allowed
Lead time for the receipt of orders is
constant
Order quantity is received all at once

Qopt = 2,000 yards TCmin = $750 + $750 = $1,500
Orders per year = D/Qopt Order cycle time = 311 days/(D/Qopt)

21. An inventory system in which an order is
received gradually, as inventory is
simultaneously being depleted
AKA non-instantaneous receipt model
assumption that Q is received all at once is relaxed
p - daily rate at which an order is received over
time, a.k.a. production rate

35. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 12-35
The carpet store wants a reorder point with a 95%
service level and a 5% stockout probability
d = 30 yards per day
L = 10 days
d = 5 yards per day
For a 95% service level, z = 1.65
R = dL + z d L Safety stock = z d L
= 30(10) + (1.65)(5)( 10) = (1.65)(5)( 10)

Q = d(tb + L) + z d tb + L - I
where
d = average demand rate
tb = the fixed time between orders
L = lead time
d = standard deviation of demand
z d tb + L = safety stock
I = inventory level

Q = d(tb + L) + z d tb + L - I
