Poullus Limited (PL), a high-tech electronics manufacturing company, is currently operating at 70% of its maximum capacity. A new customer in Lesotho has asked PL to provide a special order for 200 virtual reality headsets at R2,500 per unit. The potential customer is not a current customer of PL, but the directors of PL are keen to try and win the contract as they believe that this may lead to more contracts in the future from Lesotho. As a result, they intend pricing the contract using relevant costs. 800 kilograms of material B will be required. This material will have to be purchased for the contract because it is not otherwise used by PL. The minimum order quantity from the supplier is 1 000 kilograms at a cost of R180 per kilogram. PL does not expect to have any use for any of this material that remains after this contract is completed.
Restoring balance to the nitrogen cycle is one of the challenges facing engineers. Improving the effectiveness and economical use of fertilizer has been identified as an important step in the right direction. Engineers have designed an improved way to transport fertilizer and then to apply it directly at the point where crops are grown. Further development, assessment, and optimization of the necessary equipment is estimated to require $235,000 in year 1, increasing by a gradient of $65,000 in each of years 2, 3, and 4. Then, it will begin to decrease by $75,000 in years 5, 6, 7, and 8. Interest is 14% per year.

Zynex Co manufactures a range of electronic devices, which it sells to online stores and retail outlets. It has a risk-seeking attitude and its objective is to maximise profit. Six months ago it released a new version of its smartphone, the ZV. Zynex Co's main smartphone competitor has announced that it will launch a new version of its smartphone in one month's time and Zynex Co is concerned about the effect of the launch of this rival product on future demand for the ZV. For each of the previous ten smartphones launched by its competitors, Zynex Co's marketing team has analysed the impact on Zynex Co's sales performance.
