Market Segmentation and Product Line Design in Remanufacturing
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes an environment where two products are offered, one is remanufactured and the other is all-new. Examining the trade-offs between the customer's utility and production cost variables, the model identifies conditions under which the remanufacturing product may coexist with the all-new product. The paper concludes with some insights on why remanufacturing can be successful with some products but nonexistent with many others.

Effects of Remanufacturable Product Design on Market Segmentation and the Environment
Despite documented benefits of remanufacturing, many manufacturers have yet to embrace the idea of tapping into remanufactured-goods markets. In this paper, we explore this dichotomy and analyze the effect of remanufacturable product design on market segmentation and product and trade-in prices by studying a two-stage profit-maximization problem in which a price-setting manufacturer can choose ...
متن کاملMarket Segmentation and Product Technology Selection for Remanufacturable Products
Remanufacturing is a production strategy whose goal is to recover the residual value of used products. Used products can be remanufactured at a lower cost than the initial production cost, but remanufactured products are valued less than new products by consumers. The choice of production technology influences the value that can be recovered from a used product. In this paper, we solve the join...

متن کاملModels to explore remanufacturing as a competitive strategy under duopoly ¬リニ
Remanufacturing is a product recovery option that upgrades the quality of returns to “as-good-as-new” conditions. Remanufactured products cost less, and are sold with the same or better warranty as for new products. In this paper, we consider a duopoly environment with two manufacturers in direct competition selling their respective new products on the primary market. Specifically, we address t...
متن کاملQuantitative models for determining prices in a remanufacturing system with exclusive and competitive market structure
Remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. Remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. One of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. In addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...
