| Abstract | The inventory system under consideration consists of one central warehouse and an arbitrary number of retailers controlled by a continuous review inventory policy (R;Q). Independent Poisson demands are assumed with constant transportation times for all retailers and a constant lead time for replenishing orders from an external supplier for the warehouse. Unsatis ed demands are assumed to be lost in the retailers and unsatis ed retailer orders are backordered in the warehouse. An approximate cost function is developed to nd optimal reorder points for given batch sizes in all installations and the related accuracy is assessed through simulation. |
