Proposal – Generalizations of Newsvendor Problem 1. Introduction: The newsvendor model has been used in operations management and applied economics for years to determine optimal ordering quantity under uncertain demand. Perishable goods such as banana and lettuce cannot be carried from one period to another. Managers have to make decision on the inventory level of perishable goods over a very limited period. For example‚ due to the uncertainty of the demand of the newspaper‚ the newsboy
