Curtis LLP: A Case on Cases
By: Nikolaos Trichakis
Abstract
A product market firm faces an inventory investment decision in the face of demand uncertainty. To hedge against some of the uncertainty, the firm contemplates an additional fixed investment that would offer the flexibility of diverting inventory in case of weak sales. In a follow-up case, the repercussions of this flexibility are explored.
