Costs to be Balanced

 Cost of Ordering
 Cost of Storing
Costs in Inventory Planning
Carrying Cost

 Interest for short-term borrowals for working capital
 Cost of stores and warehousing
 Administrative costs related to maintaining and
accounting for inventory
 Insurance costs, cost of obsolescence, pilferage,
damages and wastage

 All these costs are directly related to the level of


inventory

Costs in Inventory Planning
Ordering Cost
 Search and identification of appropriate sources of supply


 Price negotiation, contracting and purchase order
generation
 Follow-up and receipt of material
 Eventual stocking in the stores after necessary accounting
and verification
 A larger order quantity will require less number of orders
to meet a known demand & vice versa

Cost of carrying and cost of ordering are fundamentally two opposing cost
structures in inventory planning

Two important
Questions 
in Inventory
 How much to order? (Quantity)
 When to order? (A> Fixed Time + Fixed Quantity or
B> Fixed Review Period + Variable Quantity or C>
Reorder Level + Continuous Monitoring)

When the total cost is minimum, we obtain the most economic
order quantity (EOQ). By taking the first derivative of with
respect to Q and equating it to zero we can obtain the EOQ
Differentiating total cost equation with respect to Q we obtain,

The second derivative is positive and hence we obtain the
minimum cost by equating the first derivative to zero.

Inventory Planning Models
Example (EOQ)
Mean of weekly demand 
Unit cost of the raw material
: 200
: Rs. 300/-
Ordering cost : Rs. 460/- per order
Carrying cost percentage : 20% per annum
Inventory Planning Models
Example (EOQ)
Mean of weekly demand
 : 200
Standard deviation of weekly demand : 40
Unit cost of the raw material : Rs. 300/-
Ordering cost : Rs. 460/- per order
Carrying cost percentage : 20% per annum
Lead time for procurement : 2 weeks

EOQ Model
Weekly demand = 200
Number of weeks per year = 52
Annual demand, D = 200*52 = 10,400
Carrying cost, Cc = Rs. 60.00 per unit per year

The Assumptions

Issues in using EOQ Model

EOQ Model assumptions



1. The demand is known with certainty
2. There is an instantaneous replenishment of items
3. Assumptions about order quantity
a) There are no preferred order quantities for the items
b) No price discount is offered when the order size is large
5 Minutes Break?

Removing Assumption 3
– Order Quantity
(Price Change : Discounts!)

Removing Assumption 2
– Lead Time (Not instantaneous arrival)

 Lead Time = 5 Days
 Use previous example data, to find ‘When to Order’
Reorder Level
(Considering Lead Time)

Removing Assumption 1
-Exact demand is uncertain
 (Probability!)
 Desired Level of ‘No Stockouts’ in % , ex 90%, 95%
Some Terms

 Review Period
 Level of Protection – Alpha (% of occasions we will
not be out of stock, ex 95%)
 Current Inventory Position
 Order Upto Level
 Mean
 Standard Deviation
Introduction to
NORMAL DISTRIBUTION

Computing Safety Stock
Using Normal Distribution

Mean demand during lead-time =  (L )
Standard deviation of
demand during lead-time =  (L )

Safety stock (SS) is given by SS = Z  *  ( L )

 Draw(X – Time, Y – Inventory Level)
Steps – In Case of
Demand Uncertainty

 Step 0 : Decide on the level of protection (alpha)
 Step 1 : Calculate Mean and Std Deviation
during R eview +L ead time Period
 Step 2: Compute Safety Stock (use norm.s.inv
excel or normal distr. table)
 Step 3: Compute ‘Order Upto Level ’ (Mean
Demand + Safety Stock)
 Step 4 : How Much to Order = Q = Order Upto
