“…One stream of literature primarily deals with disposition decisions. All discussed papers (Toktay, Wein, and Zenios 2000;Inderfurth, de Kok, and Flapper 2001;Inderfurth 2004;Bhattacharya, Guide, and Van Wassenhove 2006;Ferguson, Fleischmann, and Souza 2011;Reimann and Lechner 2012;Flapper, Gayon, and Vercraene 2012;Benedito and Corominas 2013;Giri and Glock 2017) assume a CLSC environment except for the RL approaches in Inderfurth (2004) and Polotski, Kenné, and Gharbi (2019). In none of the models, an active acquisition process is integrated; therefore, the amount of returned items cannot be controlled by acquisition cost, effort, or incentives.…”
