Note that both the plant and model schedules meet the full demand of products A, D and E, as well as achieve the inventory target levels at each period. Nevertheless, observe that the plant schedule fails to meet the demand of product B at period 4 and product C at period 3, while the model schedule fully meets the demand of these products and achieves the target inventory levels. This way, we can see how the model solution appropriately manages production and inventory levels, to fully met the demand of all products, target inventory levels are achieved, and the total inventory costs are reduced. To analyze the potential advantages andcomputationalperformanceoftheproposedmodel,Section5.1 compares the production plans provided by the model with the
