Abstract: This paper analyses a continuous review inventory system with single server, multiple vacations, Poisson demand, retrial demand, exponential distributed lead time and two supply modes for replenishment with one having a shorter lead time. To derive the stationary distribution of the system, we employ the Gaver's method. After computing various system performance measures, some cost minimisation numerical results are presented.
