This paper develops a procedure to find the ‘setup cost stability regions’ for the dynamic lot sizing problem with backlogging. The setup cost stability region for a solution is defined as the set of all setup cost values for which the given solution is optimal. Such results can be useful in studying the robustness of a given solution with respect to errors in cost estimates.
