The Optimal Structure and Performance in Two Supply Chains with Different Stackelberg Leaders
Aiming at the two situations of two-tier supply chain when the upstream or downstream has aStackelberg leader firm with deterministic demand,we analyze the effects of the structures of supply chainand the collocations of decision-making power on product price,quantity,and profits of member firms insupply chain,the quantity of the downstream products increases with the number of the entrants at either tier,while the price deceases with it:The suppiying price of upstream suppliers decreases with the number of thesuppliers,but it is irrelevant with the number of sellers.Morcover, with these two situations,we testify theyhave the same overall optimai profit of supply chain.And when the numbers of upstream and downstreamentrants are both 2,the overall profit of supply chain reaches to maximum.
