According to the counterintuitive results obtained in this study, it is possible for a {\textquotedblleft}rational manager{\textquotedblright} to obtain higher costs than the costs generated by a {\textquotedblleft}semirational manager.{\textquotedblright} Thus, the results do not support the use of the well-established decision parameter values for the echelon of concern if the other echelons{\textquoteright} inventories are managed suboptimally. {\textcopyright} 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
