| Abstract: | This paper evaluates two approaches to capacity rationing to manage demand in make to order manufacturing firms that face seasonal demand in excess of installed capacity. The two approaches are evaluated relative to the case with no capacity rationing where orders are accepted as they arrive as long as capacity is available. The results show that both rationing models produce significantly higher levels of profit than the model with no capacity rationing. |
