摘要：The uncertainty of demand occurs at a downstream
side and spreads over an upstream side in a supply
chain. To the contrary, the uncertainty of supply occurs at
an upstream side and spreads over an downstream side in a
supply chain. The quality of items is particularly important as
a factor in the uncertainty. Imperfect quality items included
in the procurement from a supplier brings the uncertainty of
supply, that is, whether imperfect quality items are included
or not, or how many imperfect quality items are included.
An intangible loss due to the uncertainty of imperfect quality
items is unavoidable even if the downstream side (taht is, a
manufacrurer or retailer) prevented all imperfect quality items
from being distributed to customers and society by perfect
inspection. Therefore, in this paper, we consider the impact of
the uncertainty of imperfect quality items in the situation that
the imperfect quality items included in the procurement from
the supplier are perfectly retrieved in the downstream side. In
particular, the impact of the uncertainty of imperfect quality
items is evaluated as an object of a monetary compensation.
Hence, we propose a condition of the monetary compensation
to maintain supply chain partnarship. Through some numerical
examples, the condition of the monetary compensation for the
uncertanty of imperfect quality items is illustrated.
