3. Rationing Rules
If sufficient inventory is not available, a member in the upper echelon will follow some rules
to ration the available inventory among two associated downstream members in the lower
echelon. Here the supply chain is analysed under proportional allocation rule.
3.1 Proportional Allocation Rule (PAR)
The rule works as follows: At time period t if beginning inventory at a member of (i +1)th
echelon is ample, then the orders of two downstream members in the ith echelon will be
satisfied. Otherwise, members in the (i +1)th echelon allocates its inventory to associated
downstream members in the ith echelon according to the proportion of order size to the total
order quantity. The application of this rule for the allocated quantity calculation from W 2,1 to
R1,1 and R1,2 for the supply chain:
AQt( 2,1), (1,1)
Ot1,1k
AS t2,1 Ot1,1k

4. Performance Measures
4.1 Fill Rate (FR)
It is defined as a fraction of demand met from the shelf in the lost sale environment. The
average of FRs of all the retailers is considered as supply chain FR.
