5. The owner of a boat has estimated the following distribution of demand for a particular kind of boat. No. demanded 0 1 Probability 0.10 0.30 0.35 0.25 Each boat costs him (8 + a) (hundred) rials and he sells them for (12 + b) (hundred) rials each. Boats that are left unsold at the end of the season must be disposed off for 6 + a (hundred) rials each. How many should be stocked so as to maximize his expected profit? Note: a = 9 and b = 9

Ajax has established a new sandwich shop format for airports and train stations.Here, the sandwitches are only made from a specially made,long,individual loaf of bread.But the innovations is that the sandwiches are not made ahead in large batches.Intead,a few of each variety of sandwich are made at a time,in the shop,with the result being a better ability to exactly match supply to demand. If prior to this change the shop has roughly 5 percent leftovers of one-half of the sandwich varieties each day,but could have sold 10 percent more of the two best sellers that day,what are the potential benefits of the new format if the store sells 12 different sandwiches each with an average demand of 20 per day?

A municipal solid-waste site for a city must be located at Site A or Site B. After sorting, some of the solid refuse will be transported to an electric powerplant where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of refuse from each site to the power plant are shown in Table P2-4. If the power plant will pay $8.00 per cubic yard of sorted solid waste delivered to the plant, where should the solid-waste site be located? Use the city’s viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only. One site must be selected.
