A study on value distribution optimization in corporate value chains

In order to explore rational value distribution among corporations in a value chain, an analysis based on the explicit relationships of different partners in the value chain was done for the value chain. The study focused on stability and rationality of adjustments to value and cost, aiming at various behavioral models of partners in a value chain. The formulas that were used to ascertain the stability and rational adjustment of the value chain are presented, accompanied by an explanation of relevant economics. The causes and degrees of deviation between values contributed and values distributed are explained. A bargaining model for value distribution in the value chain was set up according to game theory. Analysis of the model makes it clear that a sub-game perfect Nash equilibrium exists. An equilibrium strategy can be derived. The investigation's results provide a theoretical foundation for the construction and adjustment of a corporate value chain.
