We propose an extension of the competitive newsvendor model to investigate the impact of quick response under competition. For this purpose, we consider two retailers that compete in terms of inventory: customers that face a stockout at their first-choice store will look for the product at the...

In this paper, we investigate the optimality of myopic inventory replenishment policies in a periodic-review single-echelon system, with nonstationary, correlated, stochastic demand and cost, and nonincreasing stochastic prices. Using the single-unit decomposition approach, we provide certain...

In this paper, we study price competition for an oligopoly in a dynamic setting, where each of the sellers has a fixed number of units available for sale over a fixed number of periods. Demand is stochastic, and depending on how it evolves, sellers may change their prices at any time. This...
