Q5) A firm is planning to manufacture a new product. The sales department estimates that the quantity that can be sold depends on the selling price. As the selling price is increased, the quantity that can be sold decreases. Numerically they estimate: P = $35.00 - 0.02Q where P =selling price per unit Q = quantity sold per year On the other hand, the management estimates that the average cost of manufacturing and selling the product will decrease as the quantity sold increases. They estimate C = $4.00Q + $8000 where C = cost to produce and sell Q per year The firm's management wishes to produce and sell the product at the rate that will maximize profit, that is, where income minus cost will be a maximum. What quantity should the decision makers plan to produce and sell each year?

E4 ACME Corporation produces a variety of products for its diverse customer base, including the jet-powered pogo stick and jet-propelled tennis shoes, both of which are essential for catching roadrunners. Currently, they produce 40,000 engines per year that are used in the production of these two products. As the production manager for thisproduct line, you have determined that last year’s costs to produce the engines included: $99,600 in direct material expenses, $298,800 in direct labor expenses, $224,100 in variable overhead costs (i.e. power to operate the equipment), and $116,200 in fixed overhead costs (i.e. utilities to keep the factory operational). ACME plans to produce these engines only for the next 6 years. If they produce the engines in-house, they anticipate that direct material costs will increase at a rate of 5% each year. Further, they anticipate that labor costs will increase at a rate of 6% per year and variable overhead costs will increase at a rate of 3% per year.…

3 Your company plans to raise price on product A by 5% per year. Due to competition, sales volume from product A is expected to decline at 10% per year. Revenue will be $5M for this year. Alternatively, based on the projection from the marketing department, you may reduce the sales volume decline from 10% to 5% if the price is kept unchanged. The product will be discontinued at the end of year 5 for both scenarios. If the firm's TVOM is 10%, Determine the revenue cash flow streams for both alternatives.
