Explanation of Solution

Formulating a Linear Problem

  • The steps for defining a linear problem include:
    • Identifying the decision variables.
    • Writing the objective function.
    • Mentioning the constraints.
    • Explicitly stating the non-negativity restriction.
  • A problem will be a linear problem if and only if the decision variables, objective function and constraints all are linear functions.
  • If all the three conditions are satisfied, then it is a linear problem.
  • Let G be the fraction of money invested in stocks, T be the fraction of money invested in T-bills and G be the fraction of money invested in gold.
  • LINDO is a software package for linear programming and it helps to get a good feasible solution quickly.
  • Hence in this case, the linear problem in LINDO form  is

You are considering developing a new product. Forecastyear 1 sales are for 80,000 units, and the year 1 price is$4.00 per unit. In file Simidata.xls you are given data onseven similar products from the past. (See Figure 63.)For example,For product 1, actual sales were 92.26% of forecast sales.Year 2 price (in real dollars) was 76.7% of year 1 price.Year 2 demand was 30.7% more than year 1 demand.Product 1 only sold for 6 years.The risk-adjusted discount rate is 11% per year. We assumethat the price index will climb 5% per year.We are unsure about the fixed cost of developing theproduct. It is equally likely to be $50,000 or $150,000. Weare also unsure about the year 1 variable cost of producingit. It is equally likely to be $1, $1.50, or $2. After year 1,variable cost will climb by 5% per year. It costs $3 to buildone unit of annual capacity.a Assuming 80,000 units of annual capacity, estimatethe 10-year risk-adjusted NPV of this product.b What capacity level do you recommend?
Hi Can you kindly please give me an example of a Python code that plots the efficient frontier curve of asset classes, whereby for a given range of risk levels (x-axis of efficient frontier), the curve must show the 1) portfolio weights, 2) the portfolio return and 3) Sharpe ratio for a given risk free rate.   NB: The code must be in Python (Programming Language).
[Very Hard] Suppose, you are working in a company ‘X’ where your job is to calculate the profit based  on their investment.  If the company invests 100,000 USD or less, their profit will be based on 75,000 USD as  first 25,000 USD goes to set up the business in the first place. For the first 100,000 USD,  the profit margin is low: 4.5%. Therefore, for every 100 dollar they spend, they get a profit  of 4.5 dollar. For an investment greater than 100,000 USD, for the first 100,000 USD (actually on 75,000  USD as 25,000 is the setup cost), the profit margin is 4.5% where for the rest, it goes up to  8%. For example, if they invest 250,000 USD, they will get an 8% profit for the 150,000  USD. In addition, from the rest 100,000 USD, 25,000 is the setup cost and there will be a  4.5% profit on the rest 75,000. Investment will always be greater or equal to 25,000 and  multiple of 100. Complete the RECURSIVE methods below that take an array of integers (investments)  and an iterator (always…
