Recently, Chu et al. presented the necessary condition of the existence and uniqueness of the optimal solution of Padmanabhan and Vrat. However, they included neither the purchase cost nor the cost of lost sales into the total cost. In this paper, we complement the shortcoming of their model by adding not only the cost of lost sales but also the non-constant purchase cost, and then extend their model from a constant demand function to any log-concave demand function. We also provide a simple solution procedure to find the optimal replenishment schedule. Further, we use a couple of numerical examples to illustrate the results and conclude with suggestions for future research.
