An Optimal Inventory Pricing and Ordering Strategy Subject to Stock and Price Dependent Demand

This article considers the deterministic optimal control problem of profit maximization for inventory replenished at a variable rate and depleted by demand which is assumed to vary with price and stock availability. Optimal policies for the inventor, product order rate and price are derived using the maximum principle. Bounds on the maximum price possible are also derived.
