This article examines the impact of electronic commerce on environmental welfare. In particular, we analyze a game model of price competition between offline and online firms when consumption taxes are imposed on both offline and online transactions that produce environmental pollution. We investigate the properties of optimal taxation between offline and online markets and demonstrate that there is an optimal difference between the two taxes, depending upon not only the transaction cost between offline and online consumption, but also the environmental damage cost. We also investigate the effect of tax-free online transactions on tax revenues, and the financial feasibility of the optimal taxation.

This work is concerned with an optimal selling rule for a large position of stock in a market. Selling a large block of stock in a short period typically depresses the market, which would result in a poor filling price. In addition, the large selling intensity makes the regime more likely to be poor state in the market. In this paper, regime switching and depressing terms associated with selling intensity are considered on a set of geometric Brownian models to capture movements of underlying asset. We also consider the liquidation strategy to sell much smaller number of shares in a long period. The goal is to maximize the overall return under state constraints. The corresponding value function with the selling strategy is shown to be a unique viscosity solution to the associated HJB equations. Optimal liquidation rules are characterized by a finite difference method. A numerical example is given to illustrate the result.

As competition is introduced in the electricity supply industry, congestion becomes a more important issue. Congestion in a transmission network occurs due to an operating condition that causes limit violations on the transmission capacities. Congestion leads to inefficient use of the system, or causes additional costs (Congestion cost). One way to reduce this inefficiency or congestion cost is to control the transmission flow through the installation of UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller). This paper also deals with an optimal siting of the UPFC for reducing congestion cost by using shadow prices. A performance index for an optimal siting is defined as a combination of line flow sensitivities and shadow prices. The proposed algorithm is applied to the sample system with a condition, which is concerning the quadratic cost functions. Test results show that the siting of the UPFC is optimal to minimize the congestion cost by the proposed algorithm.

Jung et al.(2015) suggest the two-phase warranty model, which is a general type of warranty model. Under the two-phase warranty, the warranty period is divided into two intervals, one of which is for renewing replacement warranty, and the other is for minimal repair warranty. And warranty policies play a very important role in product marketing. In this paper, we suggest the optimal warranty policy for free extended two-phase warranty. To determine the optimal warranty period, we adopt the expected profit per unit product. So, the expressions for the total expected cost, the sale price and the expected profit per unit product from the manufacturer's point of view are derived. Also, we discuss the optimal warranty period and the numerical examples are provided to illustrate the proposed the warranty policy.

Uncoordinated charging of large-scale electric vehicles (EVs) will have a negative impact on the secure and economic operation of the power system, especially at the distribution level. Given that the charging load of EVs can be controlled to some extent, research on the optimal charging control of EVs has been extensively carried out. In this paper, two possible smart charging scenarios in China are studied: centralized optimal charging operated by an aggregator and decentralized optimal charging managed by individual users. Under the assumption that the aggregators and individual users only concern the economic benefits, new load peaks will arise under time of use (TOU) pricing which is extensively employed in China. To solve this problem, a simple incentive mechanism is proposed for centralized optimal charging while a rolling-update pricing scheme is devised for decentralized optimal charging. The original optimal charging models are modified to account for the developed schemes. Simulated tests corroborate the efficacy of optimal scheduling for charging EVs in various scenarios.

A model for obtaining optimal resetting period and optimal target value of the process quality level is proposed when the quality characteristic is subject to a linear shift in mean. Different sales conditions are considered where good items can he sold at a regular price and bad items at a discounted one. Some numerical examples are also given.

In TWBP new uncertainty will be increased. Risk management is risen to a important problem. Vesting contract makes market Players trade at fixed price in TWBP early stages. In the case of advanced country, market players manage risk with a future contract. When a risk management method moves from vesting contract to future contract, it may have to use together two contracts for schedule period. In this paper, risk management strategy that use vesting contract and forward contract at the same time is proposed.

A model for obtaining optimal target value and optimal production quantity of the process is described when the mean quality characteristic decreases according to the increase of production quantity. Two different cases are considered where defective items can be either sold at a reduced unit price or discarded. Some numerical examples are also given.

We consider an optimal trading rule in this paper. We assume that the underlying asset follows a mean-reverting process and the transaction consists of one buying and one selling. To maximize the profit, we find price levels to buy low and to sell high. Associated HJB equations are used to formulate the value function. A verification theorem is provided for sufficient conditions. We conclude the paper with a numerical example.

본 연구는 지속가능한 산림관리를 위한 산림경영인증림과 비인증림에서 생산된 펄프재의 가격차별화 방안을 합리적으로 제시하기 위해 수행하였다. 홍천과 인제, 신남지역의 산림경영인증림을 대상으로 투자비용과 목재가격을 조사하여 복리산식, 지불의사금액, 가격민감성분석을 실시하였다. 복리산식의 경우, 펄프재의 원가는 각 지역의 평균 $m^3$당 펄프재가격을 사용하였으며, 원금은 $m^3$당 펄프재가격에 투자비용을 합산하였다. 이율은 2~6%까지 적용해 보았으며, 투자 후 경과기간은 5년까지 계산하였다. 지불의사금액과 가격민감성분석은 설문분석을 통해 값을 도출하였다. 복리산식에서 이율 2%로 적용 시 경과기간 3년의 값과 이율 5~6%적용 시 경과기간을 1년으로 주어진 값이 추가 지불의사금액 5%와 가격민감성분석의 방법으로 도출된 최적가격 값과 유사한 결과 값으로 나타났으며 홍천, 인제, 신남지역에서 모두 결과 값이 동일한 패턴으로 나타났다.
