Abstract

Firms regularly replace their old product generation by a newer generation to sustain and increase their market share and profit. The product rollover problem of deciding on the number of old products to be pre-produced before the introduction of the new generation, and then deciding on the prices, sales volumes, and production volumes of the old and the new generation during the introduction under capacity constraint is considered.
