Abstract Abstract: This paper discussed the single buyer’s optimal purchasing decision in two-period when facing opportunity constraints of service level. By constructing a model, the optimal ordering policy and the analytical solution to the optimal objective value were proposed. Numerical analysis was conducted of the parameters in the model. Meanwhile, a comparison was made between the proposed model and the single period newsvendor problem with service level constrain in the literature. Finally, the impacts of the variation of parameters of these two models on optimal objective value and solution were analyzed.
