Current annual volume is 1000 operations. A major customer of the center is the United Health Insurance system. United currently sends the University Eye Institute 200 patients per year or 20% of the total. United pays $2,500 per operation as does every payor. The United Health Insurance Company is satisfied with the quality and service provided by the University Eye Institute and has proposed that they send the Center an additional 100 patients (operations) per year. United proposes that the fee be reduced to $2,000 for the additional 100 patients and for the prior 200 patients.

The company World Airline System is composed of the routes X and Y, and each route requires 10 aircraft. These routes can be serviced by three types of aircraft — A, B, and C. There are 5 (five) Type A aircraft available, 10 (ten) Type B, and 10 (ten) Type C. These aircraft are identical except for their operating costs, which are as follows: Annual Operating Cost ($ millions) Aircraft Type Route X Route Y A 1.5 1.5 B 2.5 2.0 C 4.5 3.5 The aircraft have a useful life of 5 (five) years and a salvage value of $1 million. The aircraft owners do not operate the aircraft themselves, but rent them to operators. Owners act competitively to maximize their rental income, and operators attempt to minimize their operating costs. Airfares are also competitively determined. Assume the cost of capital is 10%. Which aircraft would be used on which route, and how much would each aircraft be worth? What would happen to usage and prices of each aircraft if…
This is for subject engineering economic analysis. I need both questions answered please, these are together. a) A new business is starting up. They estimate the materials for their product will cost $47/item. Labor to manufacture the product will be $15/item. Utilities are estimated at $600/month. Rent will be $4,500/month. Taxes are estimated at $7/item. How many product items need to be manufactured each month (assuming all are sold) to obtain a monthly profit of $3,500 if each item is priced at $100? b) A 15 KW motor cost $550 five years ago. The cost index then for electrical machinery was 525. It is 500 now. How much do you estimate a 12 KW motor would cost now? Use (0.5+x/100) for the Motor Power Sizing Exponent. (You can use 7 for the x-value in this problem)

A diesel refinery is upstream of an industrial farm. The runoff from the refinery pollutes the river and damages the crops. The farm earns $499 using the polluted water, but would earn $628 if it were clean. The refinery earns $1772 but would only earn $1607 if it had to divert resources to prevent the runoff. There are no environmental laws. Assume that a scrubbing machine that would prevent the runoff costs $24 plus an installation cost. What is the most that installation could cost for clean water to be the socially optimal outcome achieved through private bargaining? O a. $141.00 O b. $36.00 O c. Anything, the machine is not required as clean water will already be achieved. O d. $105.00 O e. $165
