Popis: | This article considers a multistage channel with deterministic price-sensitive demand. Two systems for pricing decisions, that is, the bargaining system and the leader-follower system, are compared. We characterize the necessary and sufficient conditions on the power structure, under which the solution of the bargaining system Pareto dominates that of the leader-follower system. Also, under such conditions, we give a tight upper bound of channel efficiency of the bargaining system, which converges to 100% channel efficiency as the number of stages increases to infinity.© 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
