| Abstract: | We paper present a simulation based decision support system to decide the inventory ordering policy in the context of a single commodity, multi pack, and finite horizon situation. The model addresses the decision choice faced by the distributor in a specific logistics chain.In this chain a typical distributor has to balance between the stochastic nature of the demand and the attractive nature of financial incentives proposed by the manufacturer. |
