In this paper, the traditional inventory lot-size model is extended to allow not only for general partial backlogging rate but also for inflation. The assumptions of equal cycle length and constant shortage length imposed in the model developed by Moon et al. [Moon, I., Giri, B.C., Ko, B., 2005....

In this paper, we extend the inventory lot-size model introduced in Ghosh and Chaudhuri (2006) to allow for partial backlogging. In addition, we also relax their assumptions of equal replenishment cycles and constant shortage lengths. For any given number of replenishment cycles, we show that...
