This paper studies the problem of simultaneously smoothing production and inventory and setting advertising levels. The models given are linear programming models, assuming a deterministic demand-advertising-price relationship. The formulations include both one period and multiperiod models....

The problem of simultaneously making price and production decisions for a single product with a known deterministic demand function is considered. The objective is to maximize profit, and backorders are not allowed. Results which reduce the computations necessary for the pricing decision are...
