warranty as a kind of service contract today plays a role key in business and legal transactions. in this paper, we present a manufacturer, an agent and a customer's model under different service contracts suggestions. the manufacturer's profit is maximized by determining sale price, warranty period and warranty price. in addition we obtain optimal maintenance cost or repair cost for ...

In this study we propose an approach of quantifying the risks of misinforming and malfunctioning aiming to assess the quality of a warranty policy. We identify the “quality” of a warranty policy as an integral measure, based on the balance between two types of warranty – the warranty of malfunctioning and warranty of misinforming. This measure is represented in terms of the length of the warran...

Purpose: In this paper, the minimal repair-replacement warranty policy is used to carry out a warranty cost analysis with warranty servicing times and failure times that are statistically correlated to bivariate distributions. Methods: Based on the developed approach by Park and Pham (2012a), we investigate the property of the Freund’s bivariate exponential distribution and obtain the number of...

In this study, a new warranty service strategy is proposed and analyzed. This strategy adds the renewing free-replacement warranty to a non-repairable product sold under the rebate warranty policy. According to the renewing free-replacement warranty, the seller (manufacturer) is responsible for replacing all failed product during the warranty period, and the warranty begins anew with each repla...

For repairable items sold with free replacement warranty, the actions available to the manufacturer to rectify failures under warranty are to (1) repair the failed item or (2) replace it with a new one. A proper repair-replace strategy can reduce the expected cost of servicing the warranty. In this paper, we study repair-replace strategies for items sold with a two-dimensional free replacement ...

Amongst the many approaches in modelling deteriorating systems with product warranty, renewing warranty has found favor in designing such systems. In this chapter our attention is focused on renewing warranty policy modelled using quasi-renewal inter repair times. With the basic classification of warranty policies viewed in the previous chapters, the warranties are further categorized as renewi...

Facilitated by advanced digital technologies, reliability managers can monitor system working cycles during the whole life cycle. Such a technological realization help ensure in real time monitoring cycles. In this paper, incorporating limited random cycle, rebate and charge into warranty theory, free repair with (RFRW-RC) is devised to stage. Under RFRW-RC, removes manufacturers’ responsibilit...

This paper studies the impact of dual price sensitivity (product and extended warranty service sensitivity) on decision closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) where manufacturers are responsible for recycling providing under different channel power structures. First, dynamic game model is used to describe three structure models centralized (C), Manufacturer-led Stackelberg (MS), Retailer-led (RS). The...
