In this work, mathematical models are formulated in order to investigate the effect of the additional order on the expected total profit of a two-stage supply chain. A multi-period buyback contract between a supplier and a retailer under the demand uncertainty is considered. Under the contract, an advance order is submitted to the supplier in advance when the demand is unknown, and an additional order can be made at the beginning of each period after the previous period demand is realized. The impact of the coordination on the supply chain’s expected total profit is also considered. The results show that the additional order does not always increases the supply chain profit. The additional order increases the supply chain profit only when both the retailer and supplier are coordinated. Under the decentralized system with the buyback contract, the retailer tends to order less in an advance order to reduce the risk. This leads to the higher cost due the additional order after the demand is realized. As a result, it is lowers the supply chain profit. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis is performed using numerical studies in order to observe the behavior of the expected total profit of the supply chain.
