Özet

We consider acquisition and stocking decisions, motivated by the operations of a salvaging facility that collects a particular end-of-life product, performs a series of disassembly and recovery operations to reclaim a reusable part and sells the recovered part in the used parts market. We model uncertainties in demand and quality classification of the parts and include environmental fees that create a non-negligible tradeoff against the operational costs in acquisition and stocking decisions.
