Abstract
We consider the cost allocation problems for the cooperative inventory consolidation programs under the time-based policy and under the quantity-based policy. We investigate the concavity of the cooperative games and propose a proportional cost allocation rule for each policy. We analyze the population monotonicity and stability of the rule. We conduct theoretical and numerical analysis to study the cooperation stability and individual relative cost savings.
