We consider the games with asymmetric risk information and symmetric information respectively, derive the corresponding equilibrium strategies, and conduct detailed comparisons and analyses. We study the impact of service quality and asymmetric information on the optimal strategies. We find that the impact of manufacturer's service quality on direct channel price is greater than its on retail price, and retailer's service quality has a greater impact on retail price under with asymmetric information. Retailer would like to share his private information with manufacturer in order to get more profits.","PeriodicalId":206364,"journal":{"name":"2014 11th International Conference on Service Systems and Service Management (ICSSSM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131262885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We build and solve a dynamic game model. The results show that in equilibrium, the manufacturer's wholesale price is irrelevant to the exchange rate and the demand volatility, the retailer's order quantity is irrelevant to the exchange rate volatility even if it decreases in the demand volatility, and the proportion of the retailer's total purchase payment that exposes to the exchange rate fluctuations decreases (increases) in the exchange rate (demand) volatility. Further, the increases in both the two volatilities reduce the whole supply chain's (expected) profitability and decrease the profit variance of both the downstream firm pooling of risks and the whole supply chain, thereby the strategy of hedging under risk pooling can realize the risk-return trade-off in supply chain operations.","PeriodicalId":206364,"journal":{"name":"2014 11th International Conference on Service Systems and Service Management (ICSSSM)","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134571584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The decision quality of the key points of chain of care has a significant effect on the overall quality of health care services.
