Distribution model of volumes and pricing of a material flow in the logistic chain "the producer – end user"

The work considers the construction of an economic and mathematical distribution model of volumes and pricing in logistic channels of the single-market trade-brokerage network. The logistic chain "the producer - the end user" is investigated with successively connected agents through micromarkets. Conditions for a model construction are described. Each participant of a network has its own parameters. Special attention is paid to the coefficient of goods sale for each economic agent and for the whole chain. The problems for three and four participants of a sequential chain with a given price distribution and a uniform amount of product promotion are solved in practice (an ideal case that is not available in practice due to the uncertainty of the information in the form of random influences on the dynamics of the indicators). The solution based on the value of indicators is presented, taking into account the purchases/sales experience, individual preferences and the added price of each agent. On the basis of the obtained values of the sales coefficient of goods (when considering the real situation of the goods promotion), conclusions on the further behavior of participants in a chain are presented. The plan is proposed to adjust the results to the demand of the end user. Volumes and coefficients of realization of the goods with respect to balance between supply and demand are determined. The builtin economic and mathematical distribution model of volumes and pricing will make it possible to develop and make the decision on the choice of a transit or warehouse supply chain.
