Abstract
This paper considers a replenishment policy of deteriorating product w here demand declines exponentially over a fixed time horizon. Deterior ation is assumed to be a constant fraction of the total on-hand invent ory and complete backordering of demand is assumed. An extension of th e model for partial backordering is illustrated. Numerical results for complete backordering are provided and a comparison of policies is ma de. It is indicated that when shortage is allowed, the model leads to lower average total cost.
