TL;DR: In this paper, a simple approach for determining the economic production quantity for an item with imperfect quality is presented, and the results based on the simple approach with the optimal method are compared.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and channel coordination in a socially responsible manufacturer-retailer closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) by considering profit maximization and social responsibility through product recycling is analyzed.

TL;DR: An EPQ type inventory model with planned backorders for determining the economic production quantity for a single product, which is manufactured in a single-stage manufacturing system that generates imperfect quality products, and all these defective products are reworked in the same cycle is developed.

TL;DR: In this article, the classical economic order quantity (EOQ) and the economic production quantity (EPQ) formulas for the shortage case, have been derived using differential calculus and solving two simultaneous equations with the need to prove optimality conditions with second-order derivatives.

TL;DR: An economic order quantity model for the retailer is proposed where the retailer’s optimal credit period and cycle time not only exist but also are unique and several special cases are discussed including for non-deteriorating items.
