Cornology Our company was founded in 1992 in Bangkok, Thailand. With much effort and innovation we revolutionized the popcorn market in the country; eating popcorn in the cinema became a trend. Our latest big success happened in October 2014, when we launched the “Love Combo”. This combo is a mix of sweet flavors that also eliminates bad breath. Now that we have established a renowned and stable brand in our home country, it is highly recommended that we enter another market, in order to internationalize

Assignment #1: JET Copies Case Problem   Read the “JET Copies” Case Problem on pages 678-679 of the text.  Using simulation estimate the loss of revenue due to copier breakdown for one year, as follows: 1. In Excel, use a suitable method for generating the number of days needed to repair the copier, when it is out of service, according to the discrete distribution shown. 2. In Excel, use a suitable method for simulating the interval between successive breakdowns, according to the continuous

Management Science – Workshop 2: Case Study Recreational Properties 1. 1. Framing the Decision 2. Recreational Properties obtained a package of options to acquire three parcels that would allow them to develop a ski resort. The company paid €500,000 for the package of options in June 2001. The options gave the company the right, but not the obligation, to acquire the three parcels at a (strike) price of €10 million in June 2002. 3. Furthermore, in order to develop the three parcels

Daily Water Level forecasting in a Reservoir using A Probabilistic Nonlinear Model A reservoir is a place, either natural or artificial for storing water and this storage may be drawn from for use, often to meet the uneven distribution of water in space and time. The natural flow of rivers and streams differ significantly with the change in weather throughout a year and may lead to overflows (flood) or low flows (droughts) in various regions (Postel and Richter 2012; Poff et al. 2007). Under such

MINITAB to calculate the probabilities for this distribution. In column C1 enter the word ‘success’ as the variable name (in the shaded cell above row 1. Now in that same column, enter the numbers zero through ten to represent all possibilities for the number of successes. These numbers will end up in rows 1 through 11 in that first column. In column C2 enter the words ‘one fourth’ as the variable name. Pull up Calc >

Elizabeth Vo HADM 564 April 16, 2012 Case 13: Southeastern Specialty, Inc. Financial Risk (1, 2, 3, 4, & 6) 1. Is the return on the one-year T-bill risk free? No, the return on the one-year T-bill is not risk free. Financial risk is related to the probability of earning a return less than expected and the larger the chance of earning a return far below that expected, the greater the amount of financial risk. Risk free assumes 100% probability that the investment will earn the total

Analysis of “King of the Bingo Game” Ideas of slavery, identity, and what is acceptable behavior differ greatly in the past-Civil War North and South. Ralph Ellison’s “King of the Bingo Game” depicts how traditional southern slave mentalities are in conflict even after Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of the slaves, leading many, like the nameless main character to try and find a new identity and giving him a taste of power to control his life and the lives of others. From the beginning

Ivan Niven’s Proof of Pi Being Irrational The proof of pi being irrational can be done by contradiction. To do this, Niven first assumed that π =a / b, for relatively prime integers, a and b. He then created a polynomial function of power 2n that depends on the constant a and b. Next, define the polynomial for a constant integer n, which Ivan Niven used in his proof: This function f(x) has properties that are required in proving that pi is irrational. One property is that when f(x) =0; then f(x)

Self-Reflection on lab 3 On lab 3 “What does ‘random’ motion look like? Describing diffusion and random motion”, we were able to see the random motion of various beads suspended in fluids of varying viscosity. We also identified how the motion of the beads differ based on bead size, bead mass, and the fluid viscosity. Furthermore, the impact of the parameters on the diffusion were studied. Based on their diffusion the random motion of the various beads was analyzed. Overall, even if there were many
