24) Which of the following statements concerning MRP systems is FALSE? a) MRP is a computer-based inventory planning and control information system designed to handle production scheduling of dependent-demand inventories for batch systems b) MRP is designed to determine how much is needed and when the need occurs for items that experience dependent demand (components, subassemblies, parts, and raw materials) C) MRP systems are based on a replenishment philosophy, which indicates that material should be ordered when stock runs low d) The ordering philosophy of MRP may result in "lumpy" demand for component parts

Assume you own a copper mine. The mine has total known reserves of 500 (million metric tons). The market demand for the copper is estimated to be: P = -1.75Q + 1000 and the marginal cost curve is estimated to be: P = 1.25Q + 100. What is the efficient quantity of copper to extract if you need only consider the current period in your decision making? Assume you need to consider allocation of the mine’s resources across two periods of time—the present and the future. Assume the “future” period is 10 years from the present and you use a discount rate 7.5%. What would be the efficient (inter-temporal) allocation of the mine’s resources in each period? What would be the price in each period if demand is constant across time?

The demand function for a certain product is determined by the fact that the product of the price and the quantity demanded equals 8000. The product currently sells for $2.20 per unit. Suppose manufacturing costs are increasing over time at a rate of 18% and the company plans to increase the price p at this rate as well. Find the rate of change of demand over time. Find the demand function represented in this problem where p is the price of the product and q is the quantity demanded for the product. (Type an equation.)
You and your friends love to go fishing. There is a sporting goods store in your neighborhood that sells a fishing pole for $82 but costs the store $60, and a fully stocked tackle box that sells for $58 but costs $40. Assuming the mark-up policy is linear, determine the equation that relates price (P) to cost (C). Following this same mark-up policy for other items, what would be the price of a pair of waders which cost the company $80?
The Lead Zeppelin Company produces powered and steerable lighter-than-air craft. The company’s airships are specially lined and are therefore safer than normal dirigibles. The table below shows the weekly production of dirigibles, along with the associated Average Cost and Total Revenue figures (the Average Cost and Total Revenue figures are actually in thousands of dollars, so the $15 represents $15,000, but we have left off the zeros to save space). Quantity Average Cost Total Cost Total Revenue 0 -- 0 $0 1 $15 15 $10 2 $9 18 $20 3 $8 24 $30 4 $8.50 34 $40 5 $9 45 $50 6 $10 60 $60 7 $12 84 $70 The Lead Zeppelin Company has decided that it will produce at least 1 dirigible. Now the question becomes, how many more dirigibles should it produce to make as much profit as possible? Use the profit-maximizing rule to explain how many dirigibles the Lead Zeppelin Company should produce to…
Suppose your product sells for $1.20 per unit. The total cost of producing x units is C(x) = 50 + 0.20x + .001x^2 dollars. a.) Find the marginal revenue and marginal profit functions b.) Find the marginal profit when x = 400 c.) What is the approximate profit from selling the 401st unit? d.) Find the value of x for which the marginal profit is zero.
(a) if a company has total cost c(x)= 24,000+15x+0.2x^2 on total revenues given by R(x)=395x-0.8x^2, find the break even point? (b) if the supply function for a commodity is p= q^2+4q+16 on the demand function is p= -3p^2+ 2q+ 436, find the equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price?
