About

It is found that the optimal order size differs from the Wilson EOQ when holding costs or deterioration rate (both are lumped into a single discount rate) are large, and that it may even be a non-unique quantity. The second (fast) shipment mode enters in the same manner as a stockout cost. (Author)
