Abstract :
This paper discusses the probabilistic backorders inventory system when the order cost unit is a function of the order quantity. Our objective is to minimize the expected annual total cost under a restriction on the expected annual holding cost when the lead time demand follows the uniform distribution. Then some special cases are deduced and an illustrative numerical example with its graphs is added.
