Abstract

Determining the end of the sales period for a one-time order inventory policy for technology products that see rapid innovation and improvement, such as smartphones, is a vital decision. While the market life cycle is short, with long lead times and expensive deliveries. Such situations can force the number of orders to be few or even only once. Products with the latest technology consist of many components that allow for deterioration from the start. This study discusses the effect of the market life cycle, as indicated by the trapezoidal demand rate, on deteriorating item inventory policies. This study will provide new insights into inventory policy. Mathematical models with a non-linear generalized reduced gradient approach can find the optimal end of the selling period and the order size to achieve maximum profit. A sensitivity analysis showed several findings that provide insight for management.
