This paper develops a stochastic general equilibrium inventory model for an oligopoly, in which all inventory constraint parameters are endogenously determined. We propose several systems of demand processes whose distributions are functions of all retailers’ prices and all retailers’ service levels. We proceed with the investigation of the equilibrium behavior of infinite horizon models for in...

We develop a new empirical strategy for identifying discount factors in markets for storable goods. The identification strategy rests on an exclusion restriction generated by discontinuities in package sizes: In storable goods product categories where consumption rates are exogenous and package sizes are discrete, current utility does not depend on inventory unless a package gets used up. Most ...

This study attempted to investigate the relationship among learning strategy, autonomy and language proficiency of Chinese university EFL students. To achieve this objective, purposive sampling and cluster sampling methods were used to select 422 non-English major students as participants in three universities, Henan province, China. Oxford’s (1990) Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SIL...

The given research fulfils the evaluation of the efficiency of application of two universal simulation packages ExtendSim 8 and AnyLogic 6.7 for inventory control system simulation. In the study twenty eight evaluating criteria have been developed which are distributed in five groups: general, programming aspects, visualization, simulation and user support. As an object of the simulation the in...
