TLDR
In this article, a joint economic-lot-size model for a special case where a vendor produces to order for a purchaser on a lot-for-lot basis under deterministic conditions is developed.
Abstract
In a typical purchasing situation, the issues of price, lot sizing, etc, usually are settled through negotiations between the purchaser and the vendor Depending on the existing balance of power, the end result of such a bargaining process may be a near-optimal or optimal ordering policy for one of the parties (placing the other in a position of significant disadvantage) or, sometimes, inoptimal policies for both parties This paper develops a joint economic-lot-size model for a special case where a vendor produces to order for a purchaser on a lot-for-lot basis under deterministic conditions The focus of this model is the joint total relevant cost It is shown that a jointly optimal ordering policy, together with an appropriate price adjustment, can be beneficial economically for both parties or, at the least, does not place either at a disadvantage

Evaluation of an integrated supplier‐buyer quality‐control system

TL;DR: Analysis of the interaction of defective, rework, and variable sampling costs reveals that savings are the result of a shift of control effort from the process-control to the lot-acceptance stage, which is the consequence of tradeoffs involving both stages.

The Classical Economic Order Quantity Formula

TL;DR: In this paper, a stochastic version of the classical economic lot size model is developed, which yields the traditional square root formula where the constant demand term is replaced by mean demand.
