| Research Abstract |
The present study has clarified that it is very difficult in retailing to find an adequatevalue of the parameter, opportunity cost, involved in the classical model for the newsvendor problem. It was also shown very difficult to count the number of customers who encounter stock-out in the real circumstances. In addition, this study discussed the reference price of customers with the view to examining the effect of markdown, and showed that there exists optimal business hours of the newsvendor problem in retailing. Showed for the convenience chain stores that if the franchiser refunds a part of salvage costs of the franchisee, the supply chain between them can yield more profits.
