The article examines the main inventory management methods at dependent demand. The analysis showed that the results are debatable and, in fact, do not allow definitely choose the optimal inventory management strategy. To solve the problem calculations were carried out using the basic management strategies. Data from the literature and the authors' own materials were used for comparative calculations; comparison of the obtained results allowed to determine the best strategy in terms of minimum cost.
Key words. Logistics concepts, material requirements planning, inventory management strategies, dependent demand.
