Abstract   We extend the concept of dynamic pricing by integrating it with “overselling with opportunistic cancellation” option, within the framework of dynamic policy. Under this strategy, to sell a stock of perishable product (or capacity) two prices are offered to customers at any given time period. Customers are categorized as high-paying and low-paying ones. The seller deliberately oversel...

This study addresses the production planning problem for perishable products, in which the cost and shortage of products are minimized subject to a set of constraints such as warehouse space, labor working time and machine time. Using the concept of postponement, the production process for perishable products is differentiated into two phases to better utilize the resources. A two-stage stochas...

In this paper we propose an approach for solving problems of optimal resource capacity allocation to a collection of stochastic dynamic competitors. In particular, we introduce the knapsack problem for perishable items, which concerns the optimal dynamic allocation of a limited knapsack to a collection of perishable or non-perishable items. We formulate the problem in the framework of Markov de...

In current markets of perishable goods such as fish and vegetables, sellers are typically in a weak bargaining position, since perishable products cannot be stored for long without losing their value. To avoid the risk of spoiling products, sellers have few alternatives other than selling their goods at the prices offered by buyers in the markets. The market mechanism needs to be reformed in or...

We examine whether the Coase conjecture [7, 14, 4, 10] is robust against slight ability of commitment of the monopolist not to sell the durable goods to consumers. We quantify the commitment ability in terms of the speed that the durable goods perish, while keeping the time between the o ers small. We demonstrate that the slight commitment capability makes a substantial di erence by constructin...

it is assumed in most of the existing models that the items can be stored for an unlimited time to meet the future’s demand and their quality and quantity does not change during that period. nevertheless there are special kinds of products which deteriorate or become unusable (such as food products, alcohol, medicines, etc.). therefore if the rate of deterioration is significantly high, the imp...

ABSTRACT Global agro-food trade grew strongly during the first globalisation. The increase in demand, fall costs, liberal policies and technological advances explain this expansion trade. Within context, study analyses formation evolution of international market a special product: meat. It is peculiar product because it perishable. Furthermore, important to point out that its was based mostly o...

CV Sakana Indo Prima is a company that produces various frozen fish products, including nuggets, located in Depok, West Java. Fish nuggets are perishable fishery product. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point system ensures food safety Nuggets. The purpose of this research to identify analyze the has been applied processing Prima. This descriptive with method used case study. application P...

We study the global optimal solution for a planning problem of inventory control of perishable products and non-stationary demand.
