A manager must decide how many machines of a certain type to purchase. Each machine can process 100 customers per day. One machine will result in a fixed cost of $2,100 per day, while two machines will result in a fixed cost of $3,900 per day. Variable costs will be $17 per customer, and revenue will be $45 per customer. a. Determine the break-even point for each range. (Round your answers to the next whole number.) One machine Two machines b. If estimated demand is 90 to 120 customers per day, how many machines should be purchased? (Click to select) ▼

Assume that the operations manager of a small semi-conductor manufacturer wants to run a Simulation model to better understand the uncertainties related to cost and demand for a particular product. He assumes that the total cost per month could be anywhere between $150,000 and $200,000 with equal likelihood. He also assumes that the demand is normally distributed with a mean of 5,000 items per month and a standard deviation of 1,000. Each item is sold for $95. a) Use the random numbers in the following table to simulate the costs, revenues and profits per month. Use Random Number A to generate the costs and Random Number B to generate the revenues per month and then calculate the profit as the difference between revenues and costs. Complete the table by reporting the minimum, maximum and average profit per month according to this simulation.

Spruce Enterprises anticipates fixed costs of $25,000. Variable costs and expenses are expected to be 60% of sales. The president has asked you to develop a worksheet to calculate sales needed to break even and sales needed to achieve any desired net income (file name DESNI). Your worksheet should include a Data Section that contains fixed costs, desired net income, and variable costs as a percentage of sales. Assume as initial input for your model that the company wishes to achieve a net income of $10,000.
You have recently hired an equipment operator for $30.00 per hour. To determine his/her billing rate you simply multiply $30.00 by 1.20 to ensure you get a 20% profit margin. Is this process correct?
You are the manager of an apartment complex with 100 units. When you set the rent at $1600 per month, all apartments are rented. As you increase rent by $50 per month, on average, 2 fewer apartments are rented. Maintenance costs run $200 per month for each occupied unit. What is the rent that maximizes the total amount of profit? Answer:
The manager of a car wash must decide whether to have one or two wash lines. One line will mean a fixed cost of $5,600 a month, and two lines will mean a fixed cost of $9,520 a month. Each line would be able to process 15 cars an hour. Variable costs will be $3 per car, and revenue will be $5.95 per car. The manager projects an average demand of between 14 and 18 cars an hour. Would you recommend one or two lines? The car wash is open 280 hours a month.. Choose line

1. Find a franchisee's breakeven sales in dollars. 2. Is franchising a good idea for Wong if franchisees want a minimum monthly operating income of $7,000 and Wong believes that most locations could generate $26,000 in monthly sales?
If breakeven point is 1,100 units, each unit sells for $32, and fixed costs are $20,000, then on a graph the: > Total cost line will be zero at zero units sold > Total revenue line and the total cost line will intersect at $35,200 of revenue > Revenue line will start at $20,000 > Total revenue line and the total cost line will intersect at $55,200 of revenue
