| Abstract | This research investigates supply chain coordination in a two-stage supply chain with the capacity reservation contract. Under the capacity reservation contract, the supplier announces the prices and after that, the retailer pays a reservation fee under uncertain demand. When the demand information is realized, the retailer exercises the reserved capacity by actual order. To investigate coordination, the mathematical models are developed and the demand in each period is assumed to be uniformly distributed. The research also analyzes how the parameters affect the firms’ behavior in such a way that coordination and fair profits can be achieved. This research finds that the capacity reservation contract can coordinate the whole supply chain. |
