Federgruen and Lee ([3] ) proposed an optimal algorithm for the single-item dynamic lot size model with all-unit discount. In this note we show that their algorithm fails to find the optimal solution for some special cases. We also provide a modification to the algorithm to handle them.

We consider in this paper the coordinated replenishment dynamic lot-sizing problem when quantity discounts are offered. In addition to the coordination required due to the presence of major and minor setup costs, a separate element of coordination made possible by the offer of quantity discounts nee
This article considers optimization problems in a discrete capacitated lot sizing model for a single product with limited backlogging. The demand as well as the holding and backlogging costs are assumed to be periodical in time. Nothing is assumed about types of the cost functions. It is shown that
In this paper, we extend the inventory lot-size models to allow for inflation and fluctuating demand (which is more general than constant, increasing, decreasing, and log-concave demand patterns). We prove that the optimal replenishment schedule not only exists but is also unique. Furthermore, we sh
