Abstract

A number of quantitative models for analyzing postponementpostponement based upon cost and time evaluation have been discussed in the literature. Most of them assumed that the product demand is uncertain. However, if the demand is deterministic, e.g., because there is a long-term supply contract between the manufacturer and the retailers, the benefits due to economies of scope economies of scope and risk pooling risk-pooling do not exit. Thus, evaluation of postponement structures under scenarios with deterministic demand is also an important issue.
