Abstract
In stochastic inventory theory the classical newsboy problem constitutes the most investigated basic problem as the stepping-stone to more sophisticated models. Surprisingly some recent work has opened up a few new vistas in the old theme partly out of needs in certain industrial applications of controversies around the standard paradigm, or the desire for more efficient computations or data-fitting methodologies. The report discusses a dynamical stochastic 2-phase model yielding meaningful results, extending some previous work in the area and seemingly amenbable to further developments and applications. 10 refs.
