A Risk-Averse Newsvendor Model Under Trade Credit Contract with CVaR

A supply chain with a supplier and a risk-averse retailer is considered in the paper under trade credit contract. The retailer as newsvendor faces a non-negative random demand and the supplier provides the trade credit for the risk-averse retailer with budget constraints. Different from the existing research, in a conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) framework, the optimal ordering quantity and wholesale price are obtained. Analytical results are obtained for the newsvendor retailer’s optimal ordering quantity and supplier’s optimal wholesale price under CVaR measure. Sensitivity analysis is also yielded. It is found that the optimal ordering quantity decreases as the degree of risk aversion increases. Furthermore, we analyze the effect of the initial budget of retailer and the wholesale price on the order quantity decision. This paper also finds that the trade credit contract could create value for a risk-averse supply chain with budget constraints. Finally, to compare with the existing results the theoretical analysis and numerical examples are illustrated.
