Model 2 Purchasing model with shortages
In this model, shortages are allowed and consequently a shortage cost is incurred. Let the shortages be
denoted by `S' for every cycle and shortage cost by C4 per item per unit time. This model is illustrated in Fig .3

Fig. 3
Fig. 3 shows that the back ordering is possible (i.e.) once an order is received, any shortages can be made
up as the items are received. Consequently shortage costs are due to being short of stock for a period of time.
The cost per period includes four cost components.
Total cost per period = Item cost + Order cost + Holding cost + Shortage cost
Item cost per period = (item cost) × (number of items/period)
= C1Q
(13)
Order cost per period = C2
Let t1 be the time period during which only the items are held in stock. Let the maximum inventory be denoted by Im
and this is equal to (Q ­ S) or Im = (Q ­ S)
From similar triangle concept, the following equations can be obtained, referring to fig 3

Example: The demand for an item is 18000 units/year. The cost of one purchase is Rs. 400. The holding cost is Rs.
1.2 per unit per year. The item cost is Rs. 1 per item. The shortage cost is Rs. 5 per unit per year. Determine:
(a)
The optimum order quantity.
(b)
The time between orders.
(c)
The number of orders per year.
(d)
The optimum shortages.
(e)
The maximum inventory.
(f)
The time of items being held.
(g)
The optimum annual cost.
Solution
D = 18000 units/year
or
1500 units/month
C1 = Rs. 1/item
C3 = Rs. 1.2/year/item
C2 = Rs. 400/order
