In this paper we extend and apply MRP theory towards reverse logistics including the considerations of transportation consequences. Our aim is to demonstrate the versatility obtained from using MRP theory when combining Input–Output Analysis and Laplace transforms. This enables an analysis of...

MRP Theory has been developed during the last 25 years for capturing processes concerning multi-level, multi-stage production-inventory systems in a compact way. Input–output analysis has been used to describe structures, and Laplace transforms to describe the timing relations. This theory has...
