Invenrory/PropucTION MANAGEMENT-U (Stochastic Inventory Models & ABC Analysis) 21.1. INTRODUCTION e inventory models discussed in the previous chapter seems to be unrealistic because, in practical situations seldom happens that future demand is known exactly. But, the probability distribution of future demand can determined by using well-known statistical techniques. Since the probabilistic demand may also be tionary OT non-stationary, the probabilistic models can be further classified according to these aracteristics as follows : . Further Classification of Inventory Models Inventory Models r 1 1 Elementary Inventory Quantity Discount (Price Break) Models with Restrictions Models. and Others Maels Deterministic (Known Demand) Models [Note : These models (I to Vv) are already classified and discussed in Chapter 20] Probabilistic (Stochastic) Demand Models Stationary Demand Non-stationary Demand Models.
