In our thesis we show that the advantage of using D.S. methods for the modelling of economic processes. Some practitioners of econometry have already seen the D.S. as a preliminary to the formalisation of model economy subject. In a recent article, we showed how the optimum of production may sometimes not be given primacy in a sector, in a grouping of firms , or a firm and it is sometimes profitable to analyse the weaknesses which can be found in a whole industrial network in order to understand the lack of competitiveness in national products. The aim of this paper is to apply methods of the system dynamics to the analysis and modelling of the process of pricing certain products in the French timber industry.
