长期以来，数量折扣一直是一个研究课题，然而，很少有人知道它的影响时，价格敏感的需求放在集成库存模型。本研究的目的是探讨在数量折扣策略下，整合式库存系统的最佳定价与订购策略。这里讨论的定价策略是卖方向买方提供数量折扣的策略。然后，买方将调整其零售价格的基础上，采购成本，这将影响客户的需求。因此，建立了一个集成库存模型，以寻求一次生产运行中订单量、零售价格和从供应商到采购商的发货次数的最优解，使联合总利润具有最大值。最后，通过数值算例和灵敏度分析，验证了模型的有效性.
Quantity discount has been a subject of study for a long time; however, little is known about its effect on integrated inventory models when price-sensitive demand is placed. The objective of this study is to find the optimal pricing and ordering strategies for an integrated inventory system when a quantity discount policy is applied. The pricing strategy discussed here is one in which the vendor offers a quantity discount to the buyer. Then, the buyer will adjust his retail price based on the purchasing cost, which will influence the customer demand as a result. Consequently, an integrated inventory model is established to find the optimal solutions for order quantity, retail price, and the number of shipments from vendor to buyer in one production run, so that the joint total profit incurred has the maximum value. Also, numerical examples and a sensitivity analysis are given to illustrate the results of the model.
