چکیده
In this paper we solve the dividend optimization problem for a corporation or a financial institution when the managers of the corporation are facing (regulatory) implementation delays. We consider several cash reservoir models for the firm including two mean-reverting processes, OrnsteinUhlenbeck and square-root processes. Since the cashflow structure of different companies have different qualitative behaviors it makes sense to use different diffusions to model them. We provide a unified mathematical framework to analyze all these models. Our solution depends on a new characterization of the value function for one-dimensional diffusions and provide easily implementable algorithms to find the optimal control and the value function.

متن کاملInventory model with composed shortage and permissible delay in payment linked to order quantity
In today’s business transactions, it is frequently observed that a customer is allowed some grace period (permissible delay in payment) before settling the account with the supplier or producer. This policy is advantageous both for the supplier and customer since supplier attracts more customers and customer does not have to pay any interest during this fixed period either. In this paper, the r...
