Abstract

In this paper, we develop a model of Global Closed-Loop Supply Chain (GCLSC) that is applied to two countries. In this model we consider corporation tax of each country. The Objective function is the sum of net income after taxes of two corporations of both countries. To maximize the objective function, we optimize the circulation rate of end-of-use products in country1 and the transfer price per unit of the used product. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model, we practice computational simulation. Our simulation calculates the impact of parameters which are included in the objective function. As a result of the simulation, we could verify the efficiency of the proposed model.
