CPT Inc. is a local manufacturer of conveyor systems. Last year, CPT sold over $2 million worth of conveyor systems that netted the company $100,000 in profits. Raw materials and labor are CPT’s biggest expenses. Spending on structural steel alone amounted to over $500,000, or 25 percent of total sales. In an effort to reduce costs, CPT now uses an online procurement procedure that is best described as a first-price, sealed-bid auction. The bidders in these auctions utilize the steel for a wide variety of purposes, ranging from art to skyscrapers. This suggests that bidders value the steel independently, although it is perceived that bidder valuations are evenly distributed between $7,000 and $23,000.
You are the purchasing manager at CPT and are bidding on three tons of six-inch hot-rolled channel steel against 5 other bidders. Your company values the three tons of channel steel at $12,000. What is your optimal bid?

Parker County is considering reestablishing bobcats in a number of local parks. The cats are known predators of small pets and livestock, but also an important predator for controlling certain rodent and small mammal populations. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has conducted both a statewide and county level contingent valuation survey. They found that the local (county level) marginal willingness to pay represented by the equation: MWTP= -.4Q+130. The DEC found the statewide marginal willingness to pay represented by the equation: MWTP= -0.9Q+400. Further, the DEC has estimated an aggregate marginal cost of establishing and maintain the bobcats to be MC= 0.5Q+30. What would be the efficient population of bobcats if only the local willingness to pay was considered? What would be the net benefits to local people if this population was maintained? What would be the efficient population of bobcats if only the statewide willingness…
- You are the manager of a local sporting goods store and recently purchased a shipment of 60 sets of skis and ski bindings at a total cost of $25,000 (your wholesale supplier would not let you purchase the skis and bindings separately, nor would it let you purchase fewer than 60 sets). The community in which your store is located consists of many different types of skiers, ranging from advanced to beginners. From experience, you know that different skiers value skis and bindings differently. However, you cannot profitably price discriminate because you cannot prevent resale.There are about 20 advanced skiers who value skis at $400 and ski bindings at $275; 20 intermediate skiers who value skis at $300 and ski bindings at $400; and 20 beginning skiers who value skis at $200 and ski bindings at $350.What is your maximum revenue if you charge a separate price for skis and bindings?$ What is your maximum revenue if you sell skis and bindings as a bundle?$You are the manager of a local sporting goods store and recently purchased a shipment of 60 sets of skis and ski bindings at a total cost of $25,000 (your wholesale supplier would not let you purchase the skis and bindings separately, nor would it let you purchase fewer than 60 sets).

Part of the negotiation concerned the ability of Jonathon to demolish a wall in order to remodel the interior and build a pizza oven. The landlord shook Jonathon’s hand and told him they had a deal and that he could go ahead and get started. Jonathon took out a large bank loan to finance the remodelling. Four weeks later, Jonathon received a letter from the landlord indicating that he did not intend to proceed with the lease. Jonathon has already spent $100,000 on the remodelling but he has not received a signed a lease as yet. Since there is no breach of contract, does Jonathon have any other recourse in equity?
