“…Bi et al (2016) considered green consumers in the supply chain and investigated the effects of subsidy policy of the government on firm decisions in two different situations [21]. investigated the carbon emissions in a dual channel closed loop supply chain, their research suggested that a government may have to subsidize the e-tailer to maximize the social welfare [22].…”

Abstract:The increasing public attention on green products prompted firms and government to focus on the design and manufacturing of these products. This study focuses on a supply chain system that consists of three members, namely, supplier, manufacturer, and government, and then investigates the effects of government subsidies on social welfare and the profits of supply chain members. We utilize game and optimization theories to calculate and compare the optimal decisions and profits of players in the following scenarios: (i) the government provides a subsidy rate to the cost of manufacturer's greenness efforts (first subsidy policy); and (ii) the government grants a per unit subsidy to the manufacturer for the demand for green product (second subsidy policy). We also derive the necessary condition for the most effective subsidy policy that maximizes expected social welfare and profits. Our analysis derives the following findings: (i) under the first subsidy policy, the government tends to provide high subsidy rate to a manufacturer with low marginal profit; (ii) under the second subsidy policy, the government tends to offer low subsidy to a manufacturer with low marginal profit; and (iii) a government's selection of subsidy policy depends on the sensitivity of consumers to price.

“…Previous studies addressed the effects of subsidy policies of the government using game theory [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Despite the availability of these studies, only a few published articles explored the efficienci-es of subsidy policies of the government using game theory.…”

“…Most studies investigated the issue by utilizing a case study or survey research [21]. Several studies investigated the issue by utilizing an analytical model in recent years [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Ghosh and Shah [22] developed an analytical model and studied the effect of channel structures on greening efforts and prices.…”

Abstract:In this paper, we explore the pricing and greenness issues of two competitive firms without and with consumer heterogeneity. We derive and compare the optimal solutions and profits employed by firms under different scenarios. Then, we identify the effects of consumer heterogeneity under different competition intensities. The analytical results reveal that if market competition is at a relatively low level, we find that: (i) when the greenness sensitivity of consumers with no preference is sufficiently small, more consumers have high environmental awareness, and companies easily achieve their environmental goals as well as economic goals; (ii) when the greenness sensitivity of consumers with no preference is at a medium level, as the fraction of consumers with high environmental awareness increases, and the firm might achieve economic goals at the cost of reducing environmental goals; and (iii) when the greenness sensitivity of consumers with no preference is at a high level, the fraction of consumers with high environmental awareness increases, but firms might have more difficulty achieving their environmental and economic goals. On the other hand, if the market competition is at a relatively high level, the presence of consumer heterogeneity can help improve environmental goals, but make achievement of economic goals difficult.

“…The findings can help policymakers predict the impact of normative policies on total carbon emissions in the supply chain operations. He et al [12] discussed the impact of free riding behavior of consumers and government taxes on carbon emissions in CLSC is analyzed. The results show that manufacturer can derive economic benefits from consumer free riding behavior, but the total carbon emissions in the whole supply chain are also increasing.…”

This paper constructs a continuous dual-channel closed-loop supply chain (DCLSC) model with delayed decision under government intervention. The existence conditions of the local stability of the equilibrium point are discussed. We analyze the influence of delay parameters, the adjustment speed of wholesale price, recovery rate of waste products, direct price, carbon quota subsidy, and carbon tax on the stability and complexity of model by using bifurcation diagram, entropy diagram, attractor, and time series diagram and so on. Besides, the delay feedback control method is adopted to control the unstable or chaotic system effectively. The main conclusions of this paper show that the variables mentioned above must be within a reasonable range. Otherwise, the model will lose stability or enter chaos. The government can effectively adjust manufacturers' profit through carbon tax and carbon quota subsidy, and encourage manufacturers to reduce carbon emissions and increase the remanufacturing of waste products.
