The Ace Company sells a single product at a budgeted selling price per unit of $20. Budgeted fixedmanufacturing costs for the coming period are $10,000, while budgeted fixed marketing expenses forthe period are $24,000. Budgeted variable costs per unit include $2 of selling expenses (commission)and $4 of manufacturing costs. What is the budgeted operating income if the anticipated sales volumefor the period is (1) 10,000 units, and (2) 15,000 units? (Round answers to the nearest whole number.)

If a monopolist produces q units, she can charge 400 4q dollars per unit. The variable cost is 60 per unit. a. How can the monopolist maximize her profit? b. If the monopolist must pay a sales tax of 5% of the selling price per unit, will she increase or decrease production (relative to the situation with no sales tax)? c. Continuing part b, use SolverTable to see how a change in the sales tax affects the optimal solution. Let the sales tax vary from 0% to 8% in increments of 0.5%.
Assume the demand for a companys drug Wozac during the current year is 50,000, and assume demand will grow at 5% a year. If the company builds a plant that can produce x units of Wozac per year, it will cost 16x. Each unit of Wozac is sold for 3. Each unit of Wozac produced incurs a variable production cost of 0.20. It costs 0.40 per year to operate a unit of capacity. Determine how large a Wozac plant the company should build to maximize its expected profit over the next 10 years.

The Feed ’N Ship Ranch fattens cattle for localfarmers and ships them to meat markets in KansasCity and Omaha. The owners of the ranch seek todetermine the amounts of cattle feed to buy so thatminimum nutritional standards are satisfied and atthe same time total feed costs are minimized. Thefeed mix can be made up of the three grains thatcontain the following ingredients per pound of feed: The cost per pound of stocks X, Y, and Z is $2, $4,and $2.50, respectively. The minimum requirementper cow per month is 4 pounds of ingredient A, 5pounds of ingredient B, 1 pound of ingredient C, and8 pounds of ingredient D.The ranch faces one additional restriction: itcan obtain only 500 pounds of stock Z per month from the feed supplier, regardless of its need. Be-cause there are usually 100 cows at the Feed ’N Ship Ranch at any given time, this means that no morethan 5 pounds of stock Z can be counted on for usein the feed of each cow per month.(a) Formulate this as an LP problem.(b) Solve using…
Grey Manufacturing Company expects sales to total 13,000 units in the first quarter, 12,000 units inthe second quarter, and 15,000 units in the third quarter of the current fiscal year.

you are thinking of opening a small copy shop. It costs $5000 to rent a copier for a year, and it cost $0.03 per copy to operate the copier. Other fixed costs of running the store withh amount to $400 per month. You plan to charge $0.10 per copy, and the store will be open 365 days per year. Each copier can make up to 100,000 copies per year. a. for one to five copiers rented and daily demands of 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 copies perday, find annual profit. That is, find annual profit for each of these combinations of copiers rented and daily demand. b. if you rent three copies, what daily demand for copies will allow you to break even? c. Graph profit as a function of the number of copiers for a daily demand of 500 copiers; for a daily demand of 2000 copies. Interpret your graph

Based on current dividend yields and expected capital gains, the expected rates of return on portfolios A and B are 11 % and 14 %, respectively. The beta of A is 0.8 % while that of B is 1.5. The T-bill is currently 6 %, while the expected rate of return of the S&P 500 index is 12 %. The standard deviation of portfolio A is 10 % annually, while that of B is 31 % , and that of the index is 20 %: If you currently hold a market index portfolio, would you choose to add either of these portfolios to your holdings? Explain. If instead you could invest only in bills and one of these portfolios, which would you choose, and why? Investor Y, who put K1 in large stocks (the S & P 500 portfolio) on December 31, 1925, and re-invested all dividends in that portfolio, would have ended on December 31, 2003, with K1992.80.
