Abstract
In this paper we consider the transfer of risk in a newsvendor model with discrete demand.

We view the newsvendor model as a leader/follower problem where the manufacturer (leader)

decides the wholesale price and the retailer (follower) decides the quantity ordered. Taking

a Pareto-optimal contract as a starting point, the manufacturer wishes to design a real

option contract to enhance profits. A new real option contract is said to be feasible if both

parties' expected profit is at least as great as in the original contract. When demand is

discrete, there are usually infinite feasible contracts that yield maximum expected profits to

the manufacturer. In the paper we show that either all, some or none of these real option

contracts offer an improved position for the retailer.
