Tung, Cheng-Tan; Deng, Peter Shaohua Improved solution for inventory model with defective goods. (English) Zbl 1426.90032 Appl. Math. Modelling 37, No. 7, 5574-5579 (2013). Summary: This paper is a consequence for a paper of S.-W. Lin et al. [ibid. 35, No. 5, 2087–2093 (2011; Zbl 1217.90016)]. We simplified their complicated solution procedure and then presented a revision to patch their negligence for the boundary minimums. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate our findings.
