Backlogging EOQ model for promotional effort and selling price sensitive demand- an intuitionistic fuzzy approach
An intuitionistic fuzzy economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model with backlogging is investigated using the score functions for the member and non-membership functions. The demand rate is varying with selling price and promotional effort (PE). Acrisp model is formulated first. Then, intuitionistic fuzzy set and score function (or net membership function) are applied in the proposed model, considering selling price and PE as fuzzy numbers. To obtain the best inventory policy, ranking index method has been adopted, showing that the score function can maintain the ranking rule also. Moreover, optimization is made under the general fuzzy optimal (GFO) and intuitionistic fuzzy optimal (IFO) policy. Finally, a graphical illustration, numerical examples with sensitivity analysis and conclusion is made to justify the model.
