The demand rate is a constant and unit quantity is demanded whenever there is a demand. When the stock level reduces to an order for (S – s) units is placed which materialises after a random time; the lead time is assumed to have a distribution of PH-type. Further, it is assumed that the demands that arise when the stock level is zero are lost.
