The paper also points out some future studies on the pricing decision-making required in the near future, i.e., arguing for the necessity and principles for governments to set the subsidy price, designing portfolio pricing strategies by considering the influences of the effective recycle behavior of the used products to the whole supply chain, and expanding the contract model to improve the efficiency of the whole supply chain.
