Suppose that a new car costs $10,000 and that the annualoperating cost and resale value of the car are as shown inTable 13.

A manufacturing firm, Caleb Corp, produces and sells product in its home (US) market, and in a foreign market. There is inherent risk in the revenues collected from the foreign market due to volatility in the exchange rate. Under a benchmark strategy, all of the production takes place in the home country. The resulting expected profits for Caleb Corp are variable, due to variation in the exchange rate. As an approximation, the firm has estimated profits for five possible ranges of the exchange rate, with profit represented as a lottery, L= (.2, 150; .2, 200; .3, 220; .2,250; .1, 270) The probabilities are estimated probabilities for the different ranges. The outcomes in this lottery are the estimated final profit levels (not changes in profit). (a) Calculate the expected profit if the firm follows this benchmark strategy, i.e., E(L)

Now suppose the firm can also buy forward contracts on foreign currency to neutralize the effect of the exchange rate on profits. Assume that these provide complete hedging, but that it involves an additional cost, so that following the…
A car rental company is developing a replacement plan for its car fleet over the next 4 years. Based on past data, they have estimated all costs associated with replacement of individual cars within this planning horizon. All costs such as purchasing, operating, maintenance, and resale, associated with the policy to buy a car in year i and sell it in year j, is denoted as c, and is estimated for the whole planning horizon (in x$1000. All replacements (buying and selling) are assumed to occur at the beginning of the indicated years, and a car must be in service for at least one year before replacement is considered. What is the least cost replacement policy?

Two of the mathematics professors at Enormous State University are Professor A (known for easy grading) and Professor F (known for tough grading). Last semester, roughly three-fifths of Professor F's class consisted of former students of Professor A; these students apparently felt encouraged by their (utterly undeserved) high grades. (Professor F's own former students had fled in droves to Professor A's class to try to shore up their grade point averages.) At the end of the semester, as might have been predicted, all of Professor A's former students wound up with a C− or lower. The rest of the students in the class—former students of Professor F who had decided to "stick it out"—fared better, and one-fourth of them earned higher than a C−. After discovering what had befallen them, all the students who earned C− or lower got together and decided to send a delegation to the Department Chair to complain that their grade point averages had been ruined by this callous and heartless beast!…
A bank with a branch located in a commercial district of a city has the business objective of developing an improved process for serving customers during the noon-to-1pm lunch period. Management decides to first study the waiting time in the current process. The waiting time is defined as the number of minutes that elapse from when the customer enters the queue until he/she reaches the teller’s window. In addition, suppose that another branch, located in a residential area, is also concerned with improving the process of serving customers in the noon-to-1 pm lunch period and data were collected at random at these branches and recorded below; No of Customers Commercial dist branch (time) Residential area branch (time) 1 – 5 3 3 6 - 10 5 6 11 - 15 8 5 16 – 20 8 3 21 - 25 4 2 Required Which of the branches has a relatively better mean waiting time? Which shop can be surer of meeting the mean waiting time at the two branches? Assuming…
Suppose a company charges a premium of $150 per year for an insurance policy for storm damage to roofs. Actuarial studies show that in case of a storm, the insurance company will pay out an average of $8000 for damage to a composition shingle roof and an average of $12,000 for damage to a shake roof. They also determine that out of every 10,000 policies, there are 7 claims per year made on composition shingle roofs and 11 claims per year made on shake roofs. What is the company’s expected value (i.e., expected profit) per year of a storm insurance policy? What annual profit can the company expect if it issues 1000 such policies? Determine the probability of a composition shingle roof claim out of 10,000 = ______ Determine the probability of a shake roof claim out of 10,000 = ______ How many claims are made out of 10,000? = _______ What is the probability of no claims out of 10,000? = _______ How much does each shingle roof claim cost the company, don’t forget each person pays $150…

A candy manufacturer selects mints at random from the production line and weighs them. For one week, the day shift weighed n1 = 194 mints and the night shift weighed n2 = 162 mints. The numbers of these mints that weighed at most 21 grams was y1 = 28 for the day shift and y2 = 11 for the night shift. Let p1 and p2 denote the proportions of mints that weigh at most 21 grams for the day and night shifts, respectively. a) Give a point estimate for p1-p2 b) Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for p1-p2 c) Can you claim a difference between difference between proportions of mints that weight at most 21g for the day and night shifts?
The process for cleaning up waste in a nuclear reactor core room eliminates 85% of the waste present in the area. If there is 1.7 kg of waste in the room at the beginning of the monitoring period and 2 kg of additionalwaste are generated each week, determine a recurrence relation and initial conditions describing the amount wn, of waste in the core room at the end of week n of the monitoring period.
