All imperfect products are reworked after continuous production process and are taken as similar to perfect products. The main object is to nd the optimal excepted average prot, optimal selling price, discount rate, backorder level and lot-size. Sensitivity analysis is carried out with key parameters, and have examined to check the feasibility
