Chen and Wang argued: "As global resources are rapidly decreasing, implementing reverse logistics has shown that it can significantly reduce the cost of returned merchandise, improve customer satisfaction, and increase the profit of enterprises" (as cited in Gupta, 2013, p. 343). What support is there for these claims? What other benefits can be derived from a state of the art reverse logistics system? What does the research demonstrate the benefits to be? How can the Graph-Based Approach for Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Life Cycle Resource Flows help organizations realize these benefits? Are there any scriptural themes/ideas/teachings that would support or contradict Gupta's claim
