Abstract
An inventory model was developed to determine an ordering policy for the retailer under conditions of allowable shortage and two levels of delay permitted. We present a simple algebraic method to replace the use of differential calculus for determining the retailer's optimal ordering policy. A theorem is presented to obtain the optimal order quantity, and numerical examples are given to illustrate the results obtained in this paper.
