Abstract: In this paper, we constructed a new inventory model with stock dependent selling rate for
deteriorated items with a partially backlogged rate. We derived a criterion to obtain the best-replenished
policy. Our model is a generalization for Chuang (2012) that was an extension of Wu et al. (2008). Our
findings will help the researcher develop more realized inventory models.
