Abstract
In this technical note, we consider the optimal replenishment strategies for a continuous review inventory model in which temporary price discounts are offered subject to supplier-obligatory restrictions on the special order quantity. We prove that the minimum inventory level during the on-sale period is the optimal replenishment time for the supplier-restricted inventory model.
