considered supply chain in this article consists of one vendor and multiple retailers where the vendor applies vendor managed inventory. considering vendor as a leader and retailers as followers, stackelberg game theory is applied for modeling and analyzing this system. a general mixed integer nonlinear model is developed which can optimizes the performance of the system under revenue sharing c...

This article aims to study lease and hiring contract in the Iranian-Islamic setting and analyze the asymmetric information problem in these contracts.

P and economics—also known as behavioral economics—is a mindset for doing economics that espouses the importance of thinking about the psychological accuracy of models. After a history of identifying deviations from classical approaches, modeling these deviations formally, and empirically establishing their importance in economic decisions, the field is in the process of full integration into e...

Some risks in a project are uncontrollable; these are imposed to a project by external factors.
