A note on "An economic order quantity (EOQ) for items with imperfect quality and inspection errors"

In a previously published paper by Khan et al. (2011) [Khan, M., Jaber, M.Y., & Bonney M. (2011). An economic order quantity (EOQ) for items with imperfect quality and inspection errors, International Journal of Production Economics, 133, 113-118], we found that there is a contradiction between...

(2011) [Khan, M., Jaber, M.Y., & Bonney M. (2011). An economic order quantity (EOQ) for items with imperfect quality and inspection errors, International Journal of Production Economics, 133, 113-118], we found that there is a contradiction between the cycle length and the holding cost per cycle. To obtain the cycle length, the authors assumed that the returned items from the market were replaced with good quality items. However, for the holding cost per cycle, the authors implicitly assumed that the returned items were not replaced by good quality items. In this note, we first point out the contradiction. Then we fix this flaw and develop a corrected EOQ.http://www.growingscience.com/ijiec/Vol3/IJIEC_2012_38.pdfEOQImperfect qualityMisclassification errors
