This paper builds a two-stage game supply chain model where a manufacturer and a retailer transact via a wholesale price contract. Based on a standard wholesale price contract, the model captures the manufacturer's product recall decisions under product liability regulations. With the subgame perfect equilibrium, the comparative statics results show that (1) the manufacturer's product recall decision...
A supply chain with a retailer and a supplier is considered in this paper, where the supplier is a small to medium-sized company with capital constraints and in need of short-term financing and the retailer is a core enterprise, which may or may not have capital constraints but always wants to reduce the working capital need. To meet their capital needs, a 3-party loan contract based purchase-order...
Most of existing revenue sharing contract models are based on expected utility theory which is a pure rational method and assumed that all decision makers are risk-neutral or loss-neutral. The paper develops a revenue sharing contract model based on prospect theory in which decision makers in the supply chain are all loss-averse. The best order quantity of retailer, effects of retailer's loss-aversion...
In the context of a supplier and a retailer supply chain, the marketing efforts of the retailer have a significant impact on market demand. But due to the asymmetry of information, the supplier can not observe the behavior of retailer, and thus moral hazard may exist, which will affect the coordination of supply chain. Based on this, this paper analyzes the profit games between supplier and retailer...
From the supply chain value created by governance mechanism, the paper analyzes the impact of supply chain information system on governance mechanism. By establishing a dynamic differential game model, the paper analyzes the optimal control problem of supply chain by using governance mechanisms supported by information system, and designs a dynamic sharply value contract to ensure supply chain whole...
The relationship between cooperative enterprises with global supply chain management mode has changed profoundly. Thereby bringing correlative legal issues and raising legal risk. The paper constructed the legal relationship model of it by theory of jurisprudence and histology, then, the relational behaviors of contract parties and application of legal provision were analyzed in depth as well as the...
As quality management becomes more and more important to companies, quality coordination has been a new supply chain coordination. When there is a linear correlation between demand and quality, the traditional wholesale price will not coordinate the supply chain. In this paper, the incentive-penalty contract is put forward under the linear demand, so the coordination can be achieved. The decision...
This paper is aimed to research grey-game in a two-stage perishable agricultural products supply chain consisting of multi- peasant and a company. These peasants set up dynamic alliances. The market price of perishable agricultural products are random and uncertain availability, it is an interval grey number. Then, the grey game model under union is established. The various game results between multi-...
Business modes have been changing our life with more application of Internet in supply-chain/logistics distribution system. This paper investigates two inventory-decision models of a two-echelon dual-channel distribution system consists of a manufacturer with an Internet-enabled channel at the top echelon and a retailer store at the bottom echelon. Firstly, the joint production and pricing decisions...
In a two-stage supply chain composed of a supplier and a retailer, the supply chain models in fuzzy linear demand environment are researched. The parameters of market linear demand function are regarded as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The decision processes are analyzed under the decentralized and centralized decision, and the decision model with revenue sharing contract mechanism is also built by the...
The paper builds the subjective game model of emergency in supply chain system, and then analyzes the emergency decision-making when supplier and retailer are facing with the emergency attack. If retailer increases the wholesale and retail price differentials, it's belonging to the high-technological product with higher price and lower quantity available, or supplier possesses the abundant additional...
In the environment of e-market, based on the Stackelberg game, the stochastic expectation model of supply chain option contract coordination with random demand, random market price and market access degree is established in this paper. As the leader, the supplier declares the optimal contract reservation costs and execution costs for maximizing his expected profit, while as the follower, the purchaser...
This paper analyzes the supply chains of traditional retailing and direct internet with one supplier and two Cournot competitive retailers. The noncoordination mechanisms which are Second-best Mechanism and Stackelberg Mechanism and one coordination mechanism which is Quantity Discount Mechanism are studied. We show that whether the supplier selects coordination mechanism will depend on concrete circumstance.
An emergent event has a great influence on the supply chain and results in a large change in market demand. The supply chain consisting of one retailer and one risk aversion supplier is researched. In this supply chain, this paper gives the optimal strategy to deal with emergencies, compares the optimal benefit after adjusting the supply chain with the benefit not adjusting the supply chain and come...
The coordination problem of a supply chain with one supplier and one retailer is analyzed under the condition that the cost information of the retailer is asymmetric. A revenue-sharing contract model is established, in the model, the supplier have the decision-making power of wholesale price and revenue sharing ratio, and the retailer have the decision-making power of hiding the information of marginal...
Some unexpected events, such as terrorist attacks and other natural disasters and so on, which have a great influence on the supply chain. This paper constructed a optimal model to coordinate the supply chain, and come to a conclusion that "adjustment" is the optimal strategy.
The supply chain coordination game in the condition of uncertain delivery is studied, the model of the cost and profit of supplier and producer are proposed, which property of the profit model is concave function and that have maximum. And while, the leader-follower game of Stackelberg between supplier and producer is studied, which is declared that profit obtained by Stackelberg game can be more...
Consider a supply chain involving an independent supplier and an independent manufacturer, the manufacturer will help his supplier to invest in cost-reducing innovation. Based on the theory of supermodular games, we analyze two helper modes. The existence of pure strategy Nash equilibrium was proved by construction of potential function. The characteristics of the equilibrium were analyzed for simultaneous...
Each entity has independent decision right in the supply chain. Incentive for each entity is the main reason for the inefficiency in the system under asymmetric information. Supplier can encourage retailer to declare its real type of selling cost by designation for credit period contract in the two-echelon supply chain. So, individual member reaches win-win, meanwhile, the supply chain whole efficiency...
Adopting game theories, this paper has analyzed on the judgments and strategies between enterprisespsila purchasers and suppliers under static and dynamic environment, when they have perfect information and imperfect information. Through the establishment of a principal-agent game model, the results show that the positive supply attitude of suppliers and incentive mechanism of purchasing enterprises...
