this chapter develops a set of models on pricing decisions under uncertainty, extending Frenkel’s classic 1979 paper in a number of ways. The authors explore the role of inventory management and liquidity constraints as mechanisms through which uncertainty about future unit costs may make profit-maximizing firms reluctant to sell goods in the current period, and thus create incentives to raise markups
Keywords: pricing decisions, uncertainty, liquidity constraints, inventory management, mark-up pricing
