A SYSTEM DYNAMICS MODEL TO DETERMINE THE VALUE OF INVENTORY HOLDING COST

Traditionally, Inventory Holding Cost (IHC) is assumed to be a combination of several costs and determined by the summation of these cost components. Several authors have suggested that the value of IHC ranges between 12-50% of the procurement cost of an item. However, due to the absence of a gener...

A SYSTEM DYNAMICS MODEL TO DETERMINE THE VALUE OF INVENTORY HOLDING COST
description Traditionally, Inventory Holding Cost (IHC) is assumed to be a combination of several costs and determined by the summation of these cost components.
