In the present paper an attempt has been made to develop a deterministic inventory model for perishable items with time dependent demand. The problem of perishability plays an important role in the field of inventory control and managements. Shortages are allowed and partially backlogged. The backlogging rate of unsatisfied demand is assumed as a function of waiting time. The purpose of our study is to maximize the total profit during a given period of time. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the developed model and sensitivity analysis of the parameters is also given.
