Our class has found a local store that would like to sell our student's totes. We decide that we will sell her the totes for $8 (our sell price which becomes the retailers unit cost). The retailer calculates her sell price (price to consumers) by using Mark Up pricing. Her Mark Up (%) is 85%. What will be the retailer's sell price? Round to the nearest WHOLE number.

During the flu season Aventis sells doses to distributors and to health-care providers for $25. However, sometimes the flu season is mild and not all doses are sold — if a dose is not sold during the season then it is worthless and must be thrown out.

Aventis should order more than 82.5 million units. 2. Aventis should order more than 60 million units. 3. Aventis should order more than 67.5 million units. 4. Aventis should order more than 75 million units.

At a recent manufacturing workshop, XYZ, Incorporated explained that demand for disposable masks increase rapidly in March 2020 when quarantine mandates first took effect. At the time, retailers could only place a single order to cover demands through the end of the summer. A certain retailer purchased disposal masks from a supplier at a cost of $20 per unit and sold them for $30 per unit. By the end of summer, demand for masks subsided considerably and all masks that weren't sold during the summer could be sold at a discounted price of $18 per unit. The retailer estimated that demand between March and August would be Normally distributed with mu = 10,000 and sigma = 1525 units With, supply chains becoming more stable since March 2020, the retailer is currently in the process of establishing a contract with a disposable mask supplier.

Your company makes hand sanitizer in two lines: Moisturizing+, and StandardSoap. On the market, Moisturizing+ retails for $175/L and StandardSoap retails for $95/L. You make the hand sanitizer by combining lotion, soap, and secret ingredient SpecialX. These ingredients are purchased from a mysterious supplier, and you can purchase at most 4000L of lotion, 5000L of soap, and 750L of SpecialX in a month. Lotion costs $25/L, soap costs $10/L, and SpecialX costs $35/L. To make 1L of Moisturizing+, you need to combine 0.5L of lotion, 0.3L of soap, and 0.2L of SpecialX. To make 1L of StandardSoap, you need to combine 0.4L of lotion, 0.55L of soap, and 0.05L of SpecialX. Your company has committed to donating 500L of StandardSoap to a local charity. Since this is a donation, you will not receive any revenue. However, the costs and purchasing limits apply to both the hand sanitizer that is sold on the market and donated to charity. You want to maximize your monthly profit. Assume that…

Imagine you are an analyst working for the Super Store Corporation. Your boss Sylvia is the VP of Sales and she is conducting a review of the company discount policy. As research for her review, she has asked you to perform an exploratory analysis of the Super Store discount data. Specifically, Sylvia has asked you to investigate if there is a relationship between discounted sales and profit, and how much the company is profiting or losing based on discounted sales. She also wants to see if there are opportunities for efficiencies with respect to how discounts are handled. Perhaps certain customers are receiving more discounts than other customers. Perhaps certain product categories or product segments are receiving more discounts than others. Sylvia has given you wide latitude to explore this question however you see fit, and will ultimately make a recommendation to the board of directors based on your findings. Sylvia will have only 5-7 minutes to present to board members, and…
