Under the pressure of Extended Producer Responsibility system, manufacturers take back and establish closed-loop supply chain. The paper analyzes the cost structure in the CLSC system, pooled-take-back mode and third-party-take-back mode together with manufacturer’s profits and product pricing. It is found that the holding cost rate of returns inventory has little influence on the choice of take-back mode, the key factor is the parameterof demand price function. The manufacturer take-back mode is preferred if greater than 2. The mode of Pooled Take-back is preferred if less than 2.The feasibility and effectiveness of is verified.
