Budget fans value gold seats as worth $12 and purple seats are worth $10. There are an equal number of the two fans. The team sells tickets to the purple seats for $10. To maximize profits, how much should they charge for a gold seat? Answer is 27, please show calculations.First Fiddler's Bank has foreclosed on a home mortgage and is selling the house at auction. There are three bidders for the house, Ernie, Teresa, and Marilyn. First Fiddler's does not know the willingness to pay of these three bidders for the house, but on the basis of its previous experience, the bank believes that each of these bidders has a probability of 1/3 of valuing it at $600,000, a probability of 1/3 of valuing at $500,000, and a probability of 1/3 of valuing it at $200,000. First Fiddler's believes that these probabilities are in de pendent among buyers. If First Fiddler's sells the house by means of a second- bidder, sealed- bid auction (Vickrey auction), what will be the bank's expected revenue from the sale? (Choose the closest option.) The closest option is 448, 148. Please explain in details thank you.From the given graph solve all three true or false statements.
- The last question has different answer as options.18. Choose the correct answer from the given below.A computer reseller needs to decide how many laptops to order next month. The lowest end laptop costs $220 and the retailer can sell these for $300. However, the laptop manufacturer already announced that they are coming out with a new model in a couple of months. Any laptops that will not be sold by the end of next month will have to be heavily discounted at half-price. The reseller also needs to consider that every time he fails to fulfill a laptop order, he stands to lose $25 for every unit. Based on the past months’ sales, the reseller estimates the demand probabilities for sales (S) as follows: P(0 units) = 0.3; P(1 units) = 0.4; P(2 units) = 0.2; P(3 units) =0.1. The reseller thinks it’s a good idea to conduct a survey on whether or not his customers are going to buy laptops and how many. The survey results will either be Yes (Y), No (N) or Don’t Know (DK). The probability estimates of the results based on the demand for number of units are: P(Y|S = 0 units) = 0.1 P(Y|S = 1…

- You're a contestant on a TV game show. In the final round of the game, if contestants answer a question correctly, they will increase their current winnings of $1 million to $3 million. If they are wrong, their prize is decreased to $750,000. You believe you have a 25% chance of answering the question correctly. Ignoring your current winnings, your expected payoff from playing the final round of the game show is [$ blank]. Given that this is positive [blank (positive/negative)], you should [blank (should/should not)] play the final round of the game. (Hint: Enter a negative sign if the expected payoff is negative.) The lowest probability of a correct guess that would make the guessing in the final round profitable (in expected value) is [blank]. (Hint: At what probability does playing the final round yield an expected value of zero?)When a famous painting becomes available for sale, it is often known which museum or collector will be the likely winner. Yet, the auctioneer actively woos representatives of other museums that have no chance of winning to attend anyway. Suppose a piece of art has recently become available for sale and will be auctioned off to the highest bidder, with the winner paying an amount equal to the second highest bid. Assume that most collectors know that Valerie places a value of $15,000 on the art piece and that she values this art piece more than any other collector. Suppose that if no one else shows up, Valerie simply bids $15,000/2=$7,500 and wins the piece of art. The expected price paid by Valerie, with no other bidders present, is $________.. Suppose the owner of the artwork manages to recruit another bidder, Antonio, to the auction. Antonio is known to value the art piece at $12,000. The expected price paid by Valerie, given the presence of the second bidder Antonio, is $_______. .Pls select the correct option and explain it in 7-8 sentences.
