Abstract :
This paper considers the case of manufacturers recycling used products, with recycling quality random. The recycling price should be controlled through the introduction of value coefficient of quality. The high-quality remanufactured products market and the lower one coexist, and separate. Create two pricing models to compare, one with a single recycling price, and the other taking recycling quality into consideration, with value coefficient of quality and sale price as decision variables. Gain the optimal pricing strategy through two-step optimization, then analysis the relevant parameters´ sensitivity. Finally by simulation, it shows that: the pricing model considering the recycling quality is better than the other one.
