In the present paper an attempt has been made to formulate an inventory model for deteriorating items where the shortages occur at the beginning of the cycle. Generally, the demand of certain products may decline due to the introduction of more attractive products influencing customers’ behaviour. Deriving motivation from it, the above model is developed for the demand, which is exponentially declining. The significant features of the model and the results are studied with the help of a numerical example. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to demonstrate the effect of changing parameter values on the optimum solution of the system.
