Abstract

It is often possible to find an erroneous opinion that if the threshold values to start arbitration between network nodes are limited, then the general price spread across the network is also limited. However, in the case of an increase in the number of nodes, transportation costs on delivery also increase. The article shows that price deviations can grow to infinity as the size of the network grows, even with a limited change in the supply-demand ratio. This circumstance must be considered when planning the transport policy of the regions.
