7. Advertising and Corporate Clusters Consider corporations that use advertising firms to develop marketing campaigns. Each corporation buys one campaign per year, and the cost per campaign is $120?n, where n ? the number of corporations in the cluster (and campaigns per year). The cost of labor per firm is $30 ? n. A corporation’s profit equals its total revenue of $200 minus the sum of its marketing and labor costs. There are two location options: an isolated site (n ? 1) or a cluster with up to five corporations. Use a graph like Figure 3–2 to show the profit gap (profit in cluster − profit in isolation) for one through five corporations. If initially all corporations are isolated and then one joins another to form a two-corporation cluster, other firms [will, won’t] have an incentive to join the cluster because.... In the long-run equilibrium, there will be a cluster of corporations, each of which will earn a profit of , differing from the profit of an isolated site by

Hau Lee Furniture, Inc., spends 60% of its sales dollars in the supply chain and has a current gross profit of $10,000. Hau wishes to increase gross profit by $5,000 (50%). He would like to compare two strategies: reducing material costs vs. increasing sales. The current material costs and production costs are 60% and 20%, respectively, of sales dollars, with fixed cost at a constant $10,000. Analysis indicates that an improvement in the supply chain that would reduce material costs by 8.3% ($5,000/$60,000) would produce a 50% net profit gain for Hau, whereas a much larger 25% increase in sales ($25,000/$100,000) would be required to produce the same result. Now Hau finds its current profit of $10,000 inadequate. The bank is insisting on an improved profit picture prior to approval of a loan for some new equipment. Hau would like to improve the profit line to $25,000 so he can obtain the bank’s approval for the loanWhat percentage improvement is needed in the supply chain strategy for…
1. Which of the following statements is false?a) A high-efficiency organisation would want to have fewer storage facilities to increaseresponsiveness but this practice too is known to reduce responsivenessb) Having many production sites increases cost and reduces efficiency but responsiveness tocustomer demands increases because of proximityc) A highly responsive organisation for example would want to have many storage facilitieslocated nearer to customers but this practice reduces efficiencyd) None of the above
A company estimated that the relationship between the unit price and demand per month for a potential new product is approximated by P = $ 100 – $ 0.1D. The company can produce the product by increasing fixed costs $ 17,500 per month, and the estimated variable costs is $ 40 per unit. What is the optimal demand, D*, and based on this demand, should the company produce new product? Why? a) Work out the complete solution by differential calculus, starting with formula for profit or loss per month b) Solve graphically for an approximate answer
A recent engineering was given the job of determining the best production rate for a new type of casting in a foundry. After experimenting with many combinations of hourly production rates and total production cost per hour, he summarized his findings in (table 1). The engineering then talked to the firm’s marketing specialist, who provided estimates of selling price per casting as a function of production output (see table 2). There are 8,760 hours in a year. What production rate would you recommend to maximize total profits per year? Table 1 Total cost per hr Casting production per hr $1,000 100 $2,600 200 $3,200 300 $3,900 400 $4,700 500 Table 2 Selling price / casting Casting production per hr $20.00 100 $17.00 200 $16.00…
A popular buffet has two types of customers. Type A who are willing to pay $25 but only eat for $15, and type B who value the food at $30 but eat for $20. There are 200 customers visiting daily and from their experience the restaurant knows they have 40% type A and 60% type B customers. How much revenue and profit will they make daily? Only typed answer

Victor plans to set up an online business selling software applications that he develops and supports. He believes that a price of $130 for his product including the technical support would be competitive. His monthly fixed expenses amount to $850. Victor would hire some college students to provide the technical support of the application paying them for 3 hours at $15 per hour for each client. a) How many clients does Victor need to acquire to break even? b) If he wants to achieve a target profit of $500 monthly, how many clients does he need?
A local company is planning to manufacture and market a four-slice toaster. For this toaster, the research department’s estimates are aweekly demand of 300 toasters at a price of $25 per toaster and a weekly demand of 400 toasters at a price of $20. The financial department’s estimates are fixed weekly costs of$5,000 and variable costs of $5 per toaster. a) Assume that the relationship between price ? and demand ? is linear. Use the research department’s estimates to express ? as a function of ? and determine the domain of the function. b) Using your knowledge from Finite Math, determine the Revenue function in terms of ?. c) Determine the Marginal Revenue at 2 different production levels for example 250 and 500 units. Interpret these results. (HINT: Consider what a positive or negative first derivative implies) d) Assume that the cost function is linear. Use the financial department’s estimates to express the cost function interms of ?. e) Determinethe Marginal costand interpret the…
