You are scheduling production of your popular Rustic Coffee Table. The table requires a top, fourlegs, 1/8 gallon of stain, 1/16 gallon of glue, 2 short braces between the legs and 2 long bracesbetween the legs, and a brass cap that goes on the bottom of each leg. You have 100 gallons ofglue in inventory, but none of the other components. All items except the brass caps, stain, andglue are ordered on a lot-for-lot basis. The caps are purchased in quantities of 1,000, stain and glueby the gallon. Lead time is 1 day for each item. a) Schedule the order releases necessary to produce 640 coffee tables on days 5 and 6, and128 on days 7 and 8. (See Appendix A1.) I need answer in appendix A1 MRP form Please take note of this !!!
Please help me!! Qx=1.0-2.0Px+1.5I+0.8Py-3.0Pm+1.0A Where Qx= sales of CFC cornflakes, in millions of 10-ounce boxex per year Px= the price of CFC cornflakes, in dollars per 10-ounce box I= personal disposable income, in trillions of dollars per year Py= price of competitive brand of cornflakes, in dollars per 10-ounce box Pm= price of milk, in dollars per quart A= adveritising expenditures of CFC cornflakes,in hundreds of thousands of dollars per year This year, Px=$2, I=$4, Py=$2.50 , Pm=$1, A=$2 Questions c) Estimate the level of sales next year if CFC reduces Px by 10 percent and increases advertising by 20 percent, Income rises by 5 percent, Py is reduced by 10 percent, and Pm remains unchanged. (d) By how much should CFC change its adveritsing if it wants its sales to be 30 percent higher than this year?
15. Please select all that are true regarding variable costs (VC): Variable costs must be more than revenue for profitability Variable costs per unit are assumed to be constant in the relevant range of output Total variable costs are from all Q produced Variable costs are the total cost of producing a good or service Variable costs change over time Variable costs are assumed to be proportionate to Quantity Variable costs are the marginal profit per unit Variable costs are less of a risk than fixed costs since FC remain even at zero Q
1. Why does price minus extraction cost rise at the rate of interest in a competitive market for an exhaustible resource? In a competitive market for an exhaustible resource, the user cost of producing an exhaustible resource rises at the rate of interest because.. a. Exhaustible resources should be extracted if price minus marginal cost rises faster than the rate of interest. b. Exhaustible resources should be unextracted if price minus marginal cost rises faster than the rate of interest. c. Price minus marginal cost is less than marginal revenue minus marginal cost d. When price minus marginal cost rises at the rate of interest, marginal revenue minus marginal cost rises faster than the rate of interest.

Background question: Suppose there is a nonrenewable resource with inverse demand function p= 30-0.8q and with marginal extraction costs (MEC)= 8. The resource stock, S is finite and = 35 units. Suppose the time horizon is 2 periods and the discount rate is r= 8%. What quantity should be extracted in each period? What is the optimal price of the resource in the 2 periods? Please answer this!Following Hotelling, we might expect the real price of nonrenewable resources to increase continually over time, as resource stocks are depleted. But empirical evidence for a number of nonrenewable (mineral) resources indicates that their prices over the past century have not been increasing monotonically. Instead the price paths for a number of nonrenewable resources have been “U-shaped”. Provide an explanation for what’s going on. i.e. resolve this apparent anomaly between theory and observation- why would the price of these resources be driven down instead of increasing as the theory predicts?
2. Models of inventory systems frequently consider the relationships among openingstock, production quantity, demand or sales, and closing stock. For a givenproduction period j, let Sj – 1 = closing stock from the previous periodXj = production quantity in periodDj = demand in period jSj = closing stock for period jRequireda) Write the mathematical relationship or model that describes how these fourvariables are related.b) What constraint should be added to produce capacity for period j is given bycj?
3. Explain the reality of loss-making beginning and uncertainties in taking ECE ideas to market.Briefly explain different means of creating and capturing economic value out of technologypossibilities
Question: Indicate whether the following statemnts are true or false:- a) If the firm increases the volume of used resources by 30%, and the volume of production thus increases by 20%, then there is a positive effect of the production scale. b) Average fixed costs decrease as production increases. c) The economic profit usually exceeds the accounting profit.

Mike spends RM35,000 per annum on painting supplies and storage space. He recently received two job offers from a famous marketing firm – one offer was for RM 95,000 per year, and the other was for RM 105,000. However, he turned both jobs down to continue a painting career. If Mike sells 20 paintings per year at a price of RM 8,000 each: Question 1: What are his accounting profits? Question 2: What are his economic profits?
1. Definition of economic costs Hubert lives in Detroit and runs a business that sells boats. In an average year, he receives $728,000 from selling boats. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $428,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $262,000. He owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $18,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Hubert does not operate this boat business, he can work as a paralegal, receive an annual salary of $21,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his showroom at the $18,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this boat business. Identify each of Hubert’s costs in the following table as either an implicit cost or an explicit cost of selling boats. Implicit Cost Explicit Cost The wholesale cost for the boats that Hubert pays the manufacturer The wages and utility…
