In this paper we analyse the effect of a cutoff transaction size in a simple newsboy setting. It is assumed that customers with an order larger than a prespecified size are satisfied in an alternative way, against additional cost. For compound Poisson demand with discrete order sizes, we show...

In this paper we analyse the effect of satisfying in a different way customers with an order larger than a prespecified cutoff transaction size, in a simple newsboy setting.For compound Poisson demand with discrete order sizes, we show how to determine the expected costs and the optimal cutoff...

This investigation adopts the perspective of the retailer and incorporates information flow between a retailer and customers. Two new models are considered that differ in terms of information completeness. The first model involves the retailer having incomplete information regarding the state of...
