In this research note that the single source capacitated facility location problem with general stochastic identically distributed demands is studied. The demands considered are independent and identically distributed random variables with arbitrary distribution. The unified a priori solution for the locations of facilities and for the allocation of customers to the operating facilities is found. This solution minimizes the objective function which is the sum of the fixed costs and the value of one of two different recourse functions. For each case the recourse function is given in closed form and a deterministic equivalent formulation of the model is presented. Some numerical examples are also given. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
