摘要
We study a model with a single supplier and a single buyer who interact multiple times before the buyer sells her product in the end-consumer market. We show that when the supplier uses a wholesale price contract, even under perfect foresight, the supplier, the buyer, and the end consumers benefit from multiple trading opportunities versus a one-shot procurement agreement.
