  • Abstract
    We consider a two-echelon serial supply chain with stochastic demand and fixed lead-times. The inventories at both supplier and retailer stages are replenished based on (Q, R) policies with inventory holding costs and fixed ordering costs. We analyse centralized and decentralized behaviour of the supply chain, and propose the feasible algorithms for the centralized and decentralized solutions, respectively. We also obtain the solutions for Stackelberg games.
