Pricing Policies for Quantity Discounts
分析卖家向买家提供数量折扣的决策,刻画能降低双方成本的订单规模和价格范围,并扩展模型考虑库存持有成本随价格变化的情况。
In this paper we analyze the seller's decision to offer quantity discounts to the buyer. We build on an existing model as follows. We first characterize the range of order sizes and prices which reduce costs for the buyer and seller, and develop related pricing schemes. The model is then extended to allow inventory carrying costs to be a function of price.
