## Abstract Assume that the spot price has a skew‐normal distribution. This study investigates the effect of skewness on optimal production and hedging decisions. It is shown that skewness has no effect on the optimal production level but induces the firm to become more active in futures trading. ©

The ideal free distribution model which relates the spatial distribution of mobile consumers to that of their resource is shown to be a limiting case of a more general model which we develop using simple concepts of diffusion. We show how the ideal free distribution model can be derived from a more
