It is known that existing inventory policies can't be used in storage decision-making model directly. A critical path inventory policy is presented to solve a kind of stochastic economic order quantity(EOQ)model with limited F(fund). The finite state machine(FSM)is constructed by building FSM algorithm(BFA)
which is applicable in graph theory
and then
a build program algorithm(BPA)is presented to convert the FSM into PERT(program evaluation and review technique)for the use of critical path. The critical path inventory policy can be used to solve the PERT. Theoretical properties of the algorithm are analyzed and an example is presented. The results show that the policy is effective to solve the stochastic EOQ model with limited F
