Impact of Different Carbon Tax Policies on Outsourced Remanufacturing
To study the impact of different carbon tax policies on the remanufacturing supply chain under the outsourced re-manufacturing model,three carbon tax policies were considered:the uniform carbon tax policy,the one-way carbon tax increase policy for new products and the one-way reduction of recycled product carbon tax policy.Based on the outsourced remanufactur-ing model,the game model of the original manufacturer and the remanufacturer was constructed to compare the impact of three carbon tax policies on the optimal decision of enterprises and the environment of the enterprises.The results showed that:the re-tail price of the two products is highest under the one-way carbon tax increase policy for new products,and the demand for new products is highest and the demand for remanufactured products is lowest under the uniform carbon tax policy;the original manu-facturer can increase the unit outsourcing fee to stimulate the demand for remanufactured products;when the ratio of carbon emis-sion per unit of remanufactured products to that of new products is lower than the discount factor of the price paid for remanufac-tured products,the government imposes different carbon tax prices on the two products can reduce environmental impact and stim-ulate demand for remanufactured products.The study can provide a basis for the government to choose an appropriate carbon tax policy and provide theoretical support for enterprises to make operational decisions under the carbon tax policy.
