Research on the Choice of Profit Distribution Mechanism in the Two- echelon Supply Chain Cooperation (ID: 3-027)

摘要

Three profit distribution mechanisms (including sharing profit distribution mechanism, fixed profit distribution mechanism and mixed profit distribution mechanism) used in the two-echelon supply chain are summarized and literatures are reviewed in this paper. This paper considers the two-echelon supply chain consisted of a manufacturer and a seller. Based on the principle-agent theory, the mixed profit distribution mechanism model is expressed. The result of this model shows the distribution coefficient is a function of the risk aversion coefficient. Then, the sharing profit distribution mechanism model and fixed profit distribution mechanism model are also discussed. The transition conditions among three mechanisms are put forward in this paper. The transition condition between mixed profit distribution mechanism and sharing profit distribution mechanism is that distribution coefficient is equal to 0.5. The transition condition between fixed profit distribution mechanism and sharing profit distribution mechanism is that fixed profit must suit to a certain condition. At last, how to choose the profit distribution mechanism under different cooperation conditions is proposed in detail.
