报告内容摘要
Motivated by real-life business issues faced by Toyota China dealerships, we consider inventory-control models with delivery upgrades, in which the seller allocates its on-hand inventory to price- and delivery-time-sensitive customers. The seller has two inventory decisions: commitment and replenishment. The former addresses, within an inventory cycle, how on-hand inventories are allocated between the two classes of customers. The latter addresses, between inventory cycles, how the inventory is replenished. In this paper, we develop optimal inventory allocation, upgrade, and replenishment policies, and demonstrate that the optimal control can be characterized by switching curves. We extend our analysis to include cases of upgrade cost, stock-out substitution, and capacity constraint. Finally, we use the Toyota dealership data to calibrate the required parameters and demonstrate the potential of the optimal inventory allocation and upgrade control.
