Sustainable Inventory Managements for Non-Instantaneous Deteriorating Items: Preservation Technology and Green Technology Approaches with Advanced Purchase Discounts and Joint Emission Regulations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The present article aims to determine the green economic policies of an inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items under practical scenarios. These scenarios involve specific maximum lifetimes for items with deteriorations controllable through investments in preservation technologies, which can affect the period without deterioration. Additionally, carbon is emitted due to energy-related costs, prompting retailers to invest in green technology investments to reduce carbon emissions concurrently under the carbon tax policy and the carbon cap-and-trade policy simultaneously. Meanwhile, when a retailer is required to make a prepayment, the purchase discount policy is contingent on the number of installments offered. This means that the retailer prepays off the entire purchasing cost with a single installment, thereby receiving a maximum percentage of price discount. Otherwise, the retailer prepays a certain fraction of the purchasing cost with multiple installments, and the percentage of the price discount will be contingent on the number of n identical installments. In this context, we present theoretical results for optimal solutions, and a salient algorithm is presented, which is derived from these theoretical findings within a sustainable inventory system. To better illustrate the proposed mathematical problems, several numerical examples are presented, followed by sensitivity analysis for different scenarios.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
