Abstract

The main purpose of the course is to provide ability to model financial flows in the supply chain research and transform them according to actual tasks of the supply chain management under conditions of uncertainty and risk. Additionally, students will gain the ability to use the concept of utility for modeling the financial flows in supply chain research, ability to use multiple criteria decision making approaches for optimizing financial flows in the supply chain research under conditions of uncertainty and risk. The course includes also mathematical models of simultaneous investment and financial planning in the supply chain research (laboratory works in computer classes).

Learning Objectives

Further objectives are focused on MCDM-methodology (multiple criteria decision making) and it’s benefits to supply chain research, financial decision making under conditions of uncertainty and risk, the concept of utility and it’s application modeling key financial flows in the supply chain, mathematical models of simultaneous investment and financial planning.

Expected Learning Outcomes

Ability to model the financial flows of the supply chain
Ability to present financial flows in different formats and transform them accoriding to actual tasks
Ability to use mathematical models of simultaneous investment and financial planning
Ability to use multiple criteria decision making approaches for optimizing financial flows under conditions of uncertainty and risk
Ability to use the concept of utility for modeling the financial flows
