Demand Management and Inventory Control for Substitutable Products
This paper studies dynamic inventory and pricing decisions for a set of substitutable products over a finite planning horizon. We present a general stochastic, price-dependent demand model that unifies many commonly used demand models in the literature. Unsatisfied demands are backlogged. There are linear purchasing, inventory-holding, and backordering costs. The objective is to maximize the to...
متن کاملEstimating Primary Demand for Substitutable Products from Sales Transaction Data
We propose a method for estimating substitute and lost demand when only sales and product availability data are observable, not all products are displayed in all periods (e.g., due to stockouts or availability controls), and the seller knows its aggregate market share. The model combines a multinomial logit (MNL) choice model with a nonhomogeneous Poisson model of arrivals over multiple periods...
متن کاملWord-of-mouth Communication and Demand for Products with Different Quality Levels
We analyze a market with two product alternatives that differ in quality. Consumers choose between these products based on consumer reviews and their own experience. We examine how the market share of the superior product is affected by (i) the number of reviews obtained by consumers; and (ii) the type of information conveyed in these reviews. We find that when consumers randomly sample reviews...
متن کاملJoint pricing, inventory, and preservation decisions for deteriorating items with stochastic demand and promotional efforts
This study models a joint pricing, inventory, and preservation decision-making problem for deteriorating items subject to stochastic demand and promotional effort. The generalized price-dependent stochastic demand, time proportional deterioration, and partial backlogging rates are used to model the inventory system. The objective is to find the optimal pricing, replenishment, and preservation t...
متن کاملCompetitive strategies and market segmentation for suppliers with substitutable products
This research studies the competition between two coexisting suppliers in a two-echelon supply chain. The suppliers have different inventory cost structures (holding cost and setup cost). Each supplier offers one type of the two substitutable products to multiple buyers. Buyers’ preferences between the substitutable products differ. Each buyer has a particular order profile (order frequency and...
