Abstract
We consider a single-buyer single-supplier system. The market demand is sensitive to the selling price set by the buyer. Both the buyer and the supplier operate with unit product costs, inventory holding costs, and order placement costs. In addition, the buyer is responsible for the freight cost. We formulate a model for determining the optimal lot-sizing and pricing decisions. Existing models for the problem do not consider the transportation costs with price sensitive market demand, and determine the optimal decisions through an exhaustive search. We propose an approximate solution procedure, and report the computational results on the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.
