Abstract: In this paper, we have developed an inventory model for a deteriorating item with selling price and frequency of advertisement dependent demand of an item under the mixed type financial trade credit policy. Shortages are allowed and partially backlogged with a variable rate dependent on the duration of waiting time up to the arrival of next lot. In this model, the deterioration rate follows three-parameter Weibull distribution. Transportation cost is dependent on the lot-size as well as the distance from the source to the destination. The corresponding model has been formulated and solved by generalised reduced gradient-based method. Numerical examples have been considered to discuss the results and the significant features of this model. Finally, based on these examples, the effects of different parameters have been studied by sensitivity analyses taking one parameter at a time keeping the other parameters as same.
