Demand Constraints
How many demand constraints are there in the strategic-planning model? What implications does the number of these constraints impose with regard to aggregation of information into product types and market regions?
What are the possible signs (positive, zero, negative) of the shadow prices associated with these constraints? How would you use this shadow-price information to decide on market-penetration strategies, and on swapping agreements? How could you deal with uncertainties in the demand requirements?
