Abstract

With the development of digital economy which multi-product co-management is an essential feature, e-commerce becomes harder to make decisions in the process of management. This paper studies the Multi-Product Newsvendor Problem with demand transfer, budget constraints and mental accounting under demand uncertainty. We build a model to depict the multi-product demand and profit gain from e-commerce, and give the optimal order strategy for e-commerce by heuristic algorithm analysis. Then, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to study the effects of product transfer rate, budget constraints and mental accounting on the order strategy. The conclusion demonstrates that e-commerce should enhance the product demand transfer rate by various means and overcome the impacts of mental accounting and budget constraints.
