摘要:We study recycling technology choice, a critical factor that has received little attention in the context of extended producer responsibility, and its interaction with product design-for-recycling in driving the environmental benefits of recycling systems. Collective recycling systems have long been criticized for restricting the environmental benefits of extended producer responsibility because of free riding issues among producers, which can undermine incentives for product design-for-recycl...

摘要:In this study, we formulate and estimate a dynamic procurement auction game where bidder asymmetry due to synergy is endogenous. The seller sells multiple goods via a sequence of first-price auctions. While bidders are ex-ante symmetric, the first-period winner has a valuation advantage as a result of such synergy in the second-period bidding game and becomes a strong bidder. This endogenous synergy creation leads to overbidding in the first-period auction relative to a static bidding game. We...

摘要:Dual channel distribution benefits upstream manufacturers but may irritate downstream retailers. The channel conflict only seems to aggravate when retailers are put at information disadvantage. We show this need not be the case. (i) We demonstrate upstream private information can improve channel efficiency and consumer surplus. The main mechanism is the offsetting interplay of signaling distortion and double marginalization: with private selling cost, the manufacturer may signal her cost by cu...

摘要:The operations-finance interface (OFI) jointly optimizes material, monetary, and information flows under intricate sources of uncertainty. To sketch the broad landscape in this emerging and interdisciplinary field, this study synthesizes literature across diverse themes and dispersed methodologies, screens systematically the research progression from original foundations to recent contributions in each major research stream, and thereby advocates future research innovations on prospective topi...
