  4. Inventory in the US Economy $98.60 billion $122.10 Farm billion (7.9%) Other (9.8% $424.60 billion Manufacturing (33.9%) $290.40 billion Wholesale (23.2%) $316.00 billion Retail (25.2%)

  5. Inventory Types

  6. Inventory Types • Raw Materials • Work-in-process (WIP) • Finished goods inventory (FGI)

  7. Inventory Location

  8. Inventory Location • Manufacturing Facility • In-Transit • Warehouse • Retailer • Customer

  9. Benefits of Inventory

  10. Benefits of Inventory • Reduces ordering, setup & transportation costs (economies of scale) • Buffer against demand fluctuations • Buffer against supply fluctuations • Supply shortages • Variability in supply lead times

  11. Benefits of Inventory (continued…) • Buffer against price fluctuations • Benefits from quantity discounts • Protects production capacity • Allows production smoothing • Reduces managerial complexity (eliminates the need for coordination) • Can increase demand

  12. The Cost of Inventory

  13. The Cost of Inventory • Tied up capital • Warehousing cost • Deterioration • Obsolescence • Demand shortfall • Quality defects • Changes in raw material prices • Changes in product design specifications

  14. What if demand uncertainty and variability are eliminated?

  15. What if demand uncertainty and variability are eliminated? • What if replenishment lead times are made insignificant?

  16. What if demand uncertainty and variability are eliminated? • What if replenishment lead times are made insignificant? • What if ordering & setup costs are made negligible?

  17. What if demand uncertainty and variability are eliminated? • What if replenishment lead times are made insignificant? • What if ordering & setup costs are made negligible? • What if production capacity is never a constraint?

  18. Characteristics of Inventory Systems • Demand • Constant • Time varying • Stochastic • Supply lead time • Deterministic • Stochastic • Load-dependent • Review • Continuous review • Periodic review

  19. Characteristics of Inventory Systems (continued…) • Excess Demand • Backordering • Lost sales • Impatient customers • Item substitution • Capacity • Unlimited • Limited • Deterministic • Stochastic

  20. Characteristics of Inventory Systems (continued…) • Number of items & customer classes • Single item • Multiple items • Single customer class • Multiple customer classes • Inventory quality • Perishability • Obsolescence • Imperfect yield

  21. Cost Measures • Holding cost (h) • Capital cost • Taxes and insurance • Deterioration, spoilage, obsolescence • Ordering (setup) cost (A) • Purchasing (production) costs (c) • Shortage cost (p) • backordering cost • lost sale cost

  22. Example • h = ic (cost per unit per time period) • 28% = cost of capital • 2% = taxes and insurance • 6% = storage cost • 1% = breakage cost • 37% = total interest charge (i) per year • If c = $100, then h = ic = $37

  23. The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) Model

  24. Assumptions of the Basic Model • Demand occurs continuously over time with a constant rate • Inventory can be replenished instantaneously • There are no capacity limits or limits on the size of replenishment orders • A replenishment order incurs a fixed ordering (or setup) cost • Multiple products can be analyzed independently of each other • No backorders are allowed

  25. Notation • D: demand rate (units per unit time) • c: unit purchase/production cost (dollars per unit) • A: fixed cost to place an order (dollars) • h: holding cost (dollars per unit per unit time); if the holding cost consists entirely of interest on money tied up in inventory, then h=ic where i is an interest rate. • Q: the size of the order (a decision variable)

  26. Inventory versus Time Q Inventory Time

  27. Inventory versus Time Q Inventory Q/D 2Q/D 3Q/D 4Q/D Time

  28. Costs • Holding cost:

  29. Costs • Holding cost: • Ordering/setup cost:

  30. Costs • Holding cost: • Ordering/setup cost: • Production cost: c per unit

  31. Total Cost • Total cost per unit time:

  32. Total Cost • Total cost per unit time: • Total cost per unit:

  33. Economic Order Quantity hQ/2 Y(Q) AD/Q Q

  34. The Economic Order Quantity

  35. The Economic Order Quantity

  36. Optimal Cost • Optimal average cost per unit: • Optimal average cost per unit time (e.g., per year):

  37. Sensitivity to Order Quantity • Ordering and holding cost from using Q’: • Ratio

  38. Sensitivity to Order Quantity • Ordering and holding cost from using Q’: • Ratio • Example • Q' = 2Q*, then the ratio of the actual to optimal cost is (1/2)[2 + (1/2)] = 1.25

  39. Sensitivity to Order Quantity Large deviations from the optimal order quantity lead to relatively small deviations from the optimal cost.

  40. Order Quantity versus Order Interval • Order Interval: Let T represent time between orders, then • Total cost: • Optimal Order Interval:

  41. Some Limitations of the EOQ Model • Demand is deterministic and constant • Instantaneous replenishments • Ordering costs are constant and independent of order size • No accounting for interactions among multiple items • No backordering

  42. Extensions • Non-zero order replenishment lead times • Non-zero safety stocks • Finite supply capacity • Backordering

  43. Non-Zero Replenishment Lead Times

  44. Non-Zero Replenishment Lead Times • If L is the lead time and r is the reorder point, then r = DL • A non-zero lead time has no effect on Q* or Y(Q)

  45. Non-Zero Safety Stocks • If ss is the safety stock, then • A non-zero safety stock affects Y(Q) but has no effect on Q*
