摘要:Human decision making in the newsvendor context has been analyzed intensively in laboratory experiments, where various decision biases have been identified. However, it is unclear whether the biases also exist in practice. We analyze the ordering decisions of a manufacturer who faces a multiproduct newsvendor problem with an aggregate service-level constraint. We find that the manufacturer broadly exhibits the same biases as subjects in the laboratory and is prone to another bias that has not ...

摘要:We consider an order allocation game in which a manufacturer sources from two suppliers due to supply capacity limitations and allocates uneven orders to take advantage of incremental quantity discount. Laboratory experiments are conducted to examine empirical decisions by all three members in this dual sourcing channel. We observe that the supplier who receives large orders mostly agrees to supply; however, the supplier who receives small orders frequently refuses to supply. Consequently, the...

摘要:This study investigates the implication of government information provision on a farming cooperative's quality certification strategy in an agricultural supply chain. A farming cooperative has some private quality information of its product and can convey it via quality certification in the planting stage. A product distributor makes the order decision based on the farming cooperative's quality certification and can observe the exact product quality information only after the product is reaped...

摘要:We study how customer satisfaction affects platforms' advertising competition and their equilibrium market shares and profits. Consider a market with multiple competing (online) platforms, all of which decide advertising outlay to maximize their own average profit. A customer chooses which platform to visit depending on her experience of the last purchase and on the platforms' advertising outlays. After purchasing from a platform, with certain probability (satisfaction probability), the custom...

摘要:This paper investigates how the optimization of policymaker interventions against an epidemic disease is affected by contextual factors related to (i) a cost-centered approach to countering the epidemic, (ii) eventual correlative popular discontent, and (iii) growing social fatigue engendered by nontherapeutic interventions. Three nontherapeutic policies-mobility restrictions (MR), securing social interactions (SSI), and a combination of both (MR + SSI)-are compared in terms of effectiveness a...

摘要:We study a special class of cooperative games with transferable utility (TU), called m-attribute games. Every player in an m-attribute game is endowed with a vector of m attributes that can be combined in an additive fashion; that is, if players form a coalition, the attribute vector of this coalition is obtained by adding the attributes of its members. Another fundamental feature of m-attribute games is that their characteristic function is defined by a continuous attribute function pi-the va...

摘要:Motivated by several industry examples, we study the interaction between a technology provider introducing a new technology and downstream manufacturers adopting the new technology into their products. The manufacturers, once decided on their adoption timing, both cooperate in making demand-boosting investments to promote the technology and compete in price in the product market. Our main objective is to explore the important question of how the technology provider manipulates manufacturers' a...
