Abstract-For improving the operation of supply chain it is necessary to use coordination mechanisms. This paper investigates the subject of coordination in two-level supply chain using contracts mechanism. By applying contractual relationships among members of a supply chain, double marginalization can be eliminated. We consider a supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer. A stochastic and two-periodic demand is considered. For obtaining more conformation of model with real conditions, it is assumed that the retailer is faced with return of goods from customer. We determine contractual parameters for achieving the coordination. Modeling and determination of parameters will be done in such a way that win-win condition is provided for both members of supply chain. We compare insurance contract with revenue sharing contract. We find that the expected profit of the supplier with insurance contract will be improved in compared with the revenue sharing contract.

“…Depending on the contact details, c and possibly r depend on the wholesale price that the supplier initially sets. Therefore, the retailer's stream of revenue is a stochastic process X = (X 1 , X 2 ), where [6] for the variants of wholesale-price contracts that yield this structure.…”

Risk and Optimization in an Uncertain World

Throughout the management sciences, individuals and organizations compare alternatives with consequences that are risky and unfold over time. This tutorial examines representations of preferences that are sensitive to timing and risk. It reviews the logical foundations of the two major contending representations and finds that each of them is self-contradictory. In particular, properties of preferences that are consistent with discounting are also consistent with risk neutrality. In this sense, discounting implies risk neutrality. Then the tutorial briefly examines the prospects of developing new representations that are logically consistent. The tutorial ends by applying the various representations to a model of a supply chain contract.

“…Meanwhile, the choice of the listing quantity incurs variable costs for the seller however it does not incurs any variable costs for agent o. This setting is very unique for online market compared to the traditional supply chains [2]. While physical distributions are executed among alliance members that incur variable costs in the traditional supply chains, online market does not incur any variable costs due to direct shipment from the seller to the buyer.…”

Abstract. The aim of this paper is to deal with the problem of coordination for online markets where a seller registers to an online market to sell an item. The seller and the owner of the market then form an alliance to generate revenue through online sales. However, the efficiency and stability of the alliance highly relies on the contract that specifies the way to split the revenue and costs over the alliane members. We consider some typical contracts and examine their influences on the behavior of the alliance. We introduce the key concept of alliance coordinattion which characterizes the efficiency and stability of an online market.
