文摘To solve the inventory coordination model in a multi-stage, multi-customer supply chain, this paper first analyzes the third model (integer powers of two multipliers at each firm) studied by Moutaz Khouja (2003), and the authors take a numerical example to prove that the third model is irrational to miss feasible solution. Then this paper puts up a new improved model (integer multiplier at each firm), and takes the example to prove it gives better results than the integer powers of two multipliers at each firm.
