As a manager of a small software retailing company, you are concerned with projected profit next year. While profit can be determined as the difference between sales and maintenance cost, or in symbols, P = S - M, where P is profit, S is sales, and M is maintenance cost including technical support. It is argues that when sales goes up so does maintenance cost because the cost of technical support will go up. Further, it is measured that the correlation between S and M is 0.8. Now given the figure that sales next year is expected to be $300 thousand with standard deviation of $4 thousand and maintenance cost is expected to be $150 thousand with standard deviation of $6 thousand, what would be the expected profit and its standard deviation you will include in your report?
Q59 Assume that Cronos Group, a nondiscriminating monopolist of cannabis products finds that it can sell its 82nd unit of output for $12. We can surmise that the marginal Multiple Choice revenue of the 82nd unit is less than $12. revenue of the 82nd unit is also $12. revenue of the 82nd unit is greater than $12. cost of the 82nd unit is also $12. cost cannot be calculated from the data given.
W7 Q5 A paper published in the Harvard Business Review points out a new way to calculate economic profit that could be more appropriate for service firms and other people-intensive companies. Instead of focusing on investment and return on investment, the focus is on employee productivity, in terms of both generating revenues and reducing costs. The approach is to first determine economic profit in the conventional way, except that we ignore taxes, so that economic profit is before tax, as follows: Economic profit = Operating profit − Capital charge Assume the following information for a hotel chain that wishes to adopt the new method. The firm has $100 million in operating profit, has $1 billion in investment, and uses a cost of capital rate of 5%, so the capital charge is $50 million and the economic profit is $50 million. Relevant calculations are contained in Part 1 of the following schedule: Part 1: Economic Profit (in thousands, except cost of capital rate) Revenue…
In June, an investor purchased 250 shares of Oracle (an information technology company) stock at $23 per share. In August, she purchased an additional 360 shares at $23 per share. In November, she purchased an additional 510 shares, but the stock increased to $29 per share. What is the weighted mean price per share? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
A company that manufactures oximeters (devices that are placed on the fingers to measure the amount of oxygenation that a person is producing) has recently been stretched by high demand due to COVID-19. From that company, it is known that in the month of August 2020 a total of 10,000 oximeters were produced that qualified as conforming product, that the company was running a total of 25 days, Monday through Saturday, 9.5 hour shifts, of that time half an hour daily was for calibration and warm-up of the production machines and one hour daily was lunch for the workers. In addition, daily half-hour meetings are held to discuss the day's production. Because they are currently working under pressure due to high demand, there are no kanban waiting times. Determine the parts per hour of work that were produced during the month of August 2020.

Rail Tours, Inc., sells packaged tours on rail lines, including gourmet meals and a reserved bed. The most popular tours are in the autumn, when foliage colors are at their peak. The overnight package for Saturday and Sunday morning are especially heavily booked. A market survey firm has just completed a study in which they conclude that if the package cost is $200 per couple, then Rail Tours can expect to sell 400 spaces on a typical Saturday. If the price is raised to $225, then unit sales will drop to 390. If the price is raised further to $250, unit sales drop to 380. a) From the data given, write down the demand equation and determine its intercepts. Are there any precautions needed when operating at the extreme ends of the demand curve?b) The survey firm also reports that if per capita income changes, Rail Tours can expect a large change in bookings. In particular, if per capita income falls by 1%, then bookings will tend to fall by about 2%. Are tour packages a normal good?…
Latest statistics obtained from Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) official website states thatthere is currently a total of 14,794 registered Professional Engineers in Malaysia, as shown inFigure 1. This is slightly below 10% of the total Graduate Engineers registered with BEM.Most developed nations have an engineer to population ratio of 1:100, that is 1 engineer forevery 100 persons in the population. This means that there is still a shortage of registeredengineers in Malaysia since our population is approximately 32.7 million. Discuss the impact of a shortage in registered Graduate Engineers and ProfessionalEngineers to the nation. a) You are required to provide at least three (3) different impactsand include any credible references to support your discussion.b) Recommend at least four methods to increase the number of registered ProfessionalEngineers in Malaysia.(Answer must be at least 1500 words)

Suppose in period 0 an industry comprises 24 equal-sized firms, each with sales of £12 millions. The assumed random growth process is as follows: in any subsequent year, each firm has an equal chance of either doubling or halving its sales. (In other words, 50% of the firms will increase their sales and 50% will decrease their sales.). Show the validity of Gibrat’s law, using both CR8 and HHI indices after 2 periods.
Jim has been employed at Gold Key Realty at a salary of $2,000 per month during the past year. Because Jim is considered to be a top salesman, the manager of Gold key is offering him one of three salary plans for the next year: (1) a 25% raise to $2,500 per month; (2) a base salary of $1,000 plus $600 per house sold; or, (3) a straight commission of $1,000 per house sold. Over the past year, Jim has sold up to 6 homes in a month. Write down the month salary payoff table for Jim.
A company produces and sells a consumer product and thus far has been able to control the volume of the product by varying the selling price. The company is seeking to maximize its net profit. It has been concluded that the relationship between price and demand, per month, is approximately D = 500 - 5p, where p is the price per unit in dollars. The fixed cost is $1,000 per month, and the variable cost is $20 per unit. Obtain the answer mathematically to the following questions: a.What is the optimal number of units that should be produced and sold per month? b. What is the maximum profit per month? c. What are the breakeven sales quantities and the range of profitable demand volume?
