The Acme Widget Company has found that if widgets are priced at $125, then 2700 will be sold each month. They have also found that for every increase of $18, there will be 100 fewer widgets sold each month. The cost to produce each widget is $25 plus the monthly fixed costs are $3800.
The research department at a manufacturing company has developed a new process that it believes will result in an
improved product. Management must decide whether to go ahead and market the new product. The new product may or
may not be better than the old one. If the new product is better and the company decides to market it, sales should
increase by $70,000. If it is not better and they replace the old product with the new product on the market, they will lose
$25,000 to competitors. If they decide not to market the new product, they will lose a total of $60,000 if it is better and
just research costs of $20,000 if it is not. Complete parts (a) and (b) below.
(a) Prepare a payoff matrix.

- The research department at a manufacturing company has developed a new process that it believes will result in an improved product. Management must decide whether to go ahead and market the new product. The new product may or may not be better than the old one. If the new product is better and the company decides to market it, sales should increase by $60,000. If it is not better and they replace the old product with the new product on the market, they will lose $25,000 to competitors. If they decide not to market the new product, they will lose a total of $50,000 if it is better and just research costs of $20,000 if it is not. Answer parts a through c below.

To encourage large orders from distributors, the manufacturer will reduce the price by $0.01 per unit for each unit in excess of 100 units. (For example, an order of 101 units would have a price of $89.99 per unit, and an order of 102 units would have a price of $89.98 per unit.) This price reduction is discontinued when the price per unit drops to $75. (a) Express the price per unit p as a function of the order size x.

- RELEVANT Magazine (a culture magazine) keeps in touch and informs their readers by posting updates through various social networks. These updates take up a large part of both the marketing and editorial teams’ time. Because these updates take so much time, marketing is interested in knowing whether reducing posts (updates) on Facebook (a specific site) will also lessen their fan interaction; if not, both departments may pursue using their time in more productive ways. The weekly number of posts (updates) and fan interactions for Facebook during a 9-week period are recorded in Table. Compute the covariance and correlation between Facebook posts (site updates) and fan interactions. The data are stored in the data file RELEVANT Magazine.

However, he estimates that this crop will increase by an additional 1,200 bushels of soybeans for each week he delays harvesting, but the price will drop at a rate of 50 cents per bushel per week; in addition, it is likely that he will experience spoilage of approximately 200 bushels per week for each week he delays harvesting. When should he harvest his crop to obtain the largest net cash return, and how much will be received for his crop at that time?arrow_forward
- Netflix made headlines in September 2011 when it split its streaming video service and its DVD by-mail service into two companies. This decision was based on projections that streaming videos will replace DVDs in the future. In this problem, you will explore these projections. Numbers below are close to the correct values, but vary to allow more practice with this idea. Total DVD and Blu-ray disc sales in 2009 were $8.72 billion. For the purposes of this problem, you will combine DVD and Blue-ray disk sales into one category of DVD sales. A study by In-Stat predicted that "physical disc sales will decline by $4.7 billion by 2014," and that "streaming, on the other hand, should grow from its current $2.1 billion to $6.3 billion over the same time period (2009–2014)."12 What is the slope, including units, of the model for DVD sales?

- A tutoring service provides tutoring for a fee. When the tutoring service charges $11/hour, there is a demand for 28 tutors per week. When the hourly rate rises to $17/hour, the demand drops to 16 tutors per week. On the other hand, at $11/hour, the service is able to support only 28 tutors per week, whereas at the rate of $17/hour, it is able to provide 58 tutors per week. Find the price per hour at which the number of tutors demanded and the number of tutors supplied will be equal.arrow_forwardYou take 12 semester hours at FTTC in each of the Spring and Fall semesters, and 6 semester hours in the Summer at $76 per hour. Each class is 3 semester hours and the average book per course costs $120. There is a $35 activity fee and a $25 technology fee for each semester. Caculate your monthly expenses.arrow_forwardWhen a company offers a new product or service, they estimate how much of that product or service people will want at different prices. This is referred to as the product or service demand . As the price of a product or service increases, the demand usually decreases, and this drives the price down. Companies use the estimated demand to determine how much of a product or service they are willing to supply at different prices. As the price of a product or service increases, companies are willing to supply more of it because they will earn more money. If you graph the demand and the supply curves on the same xy-plane, they will sometimes intersect at the point where the price and the supply are in equilibrium. Consider the scenario below. Yaseen is a local artist who wants to increase the amount of money she earns every month by selling at-home painting kits. These kits will include a photograph of the finished painting, a link and password to Yaseen’s YouTube channel where she will…arrow_forward
