| Abstract: | In manufacturing systems, raw materials and components are purchased from outside suppliers. The purchasing decision consists of quantity and timing decisions. An added dimension to the purchasing decision is the availability of purchase quantity discounts. At the same time, order rescheduling is aimed at revising due dates of orders such that the planned schedule matches the actual schedule over time. Such revisions in quantity and timing affect the purchase decision. |
