Continuous inventory models of diffusion type: Long-term average cost criterion

Abstract: This paper establishes conditions for optimality of an (s, S) ordering policy for the minimization of the long-term average cost of one-dimensional diffusion inventory models. The class of such models under consideration have general drift and diffusion coefficients and boundary points that are consistent with the notion that demand should tend to decrease the inventory level. Characterization of the cost of a general (s, S) policy as a function F of two variables naturally leads to a nonlinear optimization pr… Show more

“…When b is a natural boundary, the requirement that M[y, b) < ∞ for each y ∈ I is imposed in this paper as this is required for our general approach and does not hold in general. Lemma 2.4 of Helmes et al (2017) shows that this condition follows from the more restrictive assumptions in that paper.…”

“…In this section we briefly establish the models under consideration, which are more general than those in Helmes et al (2017). The approach is very similar to that taken in Sections 2 and 3 of that paper, so we refer the reader to those sections for more details.…”
