This research develops an ordering policy for raw materials and determines an economic batch size in a manufacturing system that supplies finished products to customers over a finite planning horizon. Fixed quantities of finished products are delivered to customers at a fixed interval of time. In this model, an optimal multi-ordering policy for procurement of raw materials and production cycle time for a production and supply system is developed to minimize the total cost incurred due to raw materials and finished goods inventories. A closed-form solution to the problem is obtained for the minimal total cost. A lower bound on the optimal solution is developed for the problem and the empirical tests indicate that the lower bounds are very close to the solution. date: 2006 date_type: published official_url: http://doi.org/10.1007/BF03398786 id_number: doi:10.1007/BF03398786 full_text_status: none publication: OPSEARCH volume: 43 number: 4 pagerange: 404-424 refereed: TRUE issn: 0030-3887 citation: Sarker, Bhaba R. dan Diponegoro, Ahmad (2006) Finite horizon planning with fixed-interval deliveries and no shortage.
