An individual wishes to invest PhP 50,000 over the next year in two types of investment: Investment A yields 5%, and investment B yields 8%. Market research recommends an allocation of at least 25% of the actual total investment in A and at most 50% of the actual total investment in B. Moreover, investment in A should be at least half the investment in B. How should the fund be allocated to the two investments?

A factory ships weekly shipments of an item to a distribution center and the average quantity shipped is 350 units. The weekly ordering rate for this distribution center is 50 units for an item. Unit price is $ 650. The period of supply from the factory to the distribution center is two weeks (2 weeks). The distribution center must pay for the stock from the moment the manufacturer ships the goods. If the distribution center wants to increase the purchase quantity to 400 units, the factory will give priority to the distribution center and guarantee it Supply period (one week only). Required: What is the effect on the average cycle inventory and the pipeline inventory of the distribution center? With the necessity to comment on the results.

A local electricity company produces and distributes electricity to residential customers. The firm is a monopoly and it is regulated such that p = MC. The firm faces the following demand function: p = 800 – 2g and its total cost function is: C = 22500 + 200g + q². a) Find the deadweight loss that would result if this company was allowed to operate as a profit maximizing firm, compared to the situation under regulation. b) Calculate the Lerner index of Monopoly Power at the profit maximizing point.
From the data given compute the sales price for each product T and O. From the data given compute variable cost per unit for each product T and O. Letter Co. produces and sells two products, T and O. It manufactures these products in separate factories and markets them through different channels. They have no shared costs. This year, the company sold 50,000 units of each product. Sales and costs for each product follow.
a plant has a 200 horsepower that works cpnsstatnly for 3000 hours per year. it is using a drive motor with an efficiency of 84.3%. The motor has reached its life span, and needs to be changed. A new one will cost $1,100. A motor with an efficiency of 86.3% will cost $13,000 and the installation of the motor will be $1,200. Both motors will last for 20 years but then would need a new one Find the annual savings when it comes to replacing the old compressor with the more efficient compressor.
A producer of perishable product offers a wage incentive to drivers of its trucks. A standard delivery takes an average of 30 hours. Drivers are paid at the rate of $20 per hour up to maximum of 40 hours. If the trip requires more than 30 hours, the drivers receive compensation for only 30 hours. There is an incentive for drivers to make the trip in less (but not to much less) than 30 hours. For each hour under 30, the hourly wage increases by $1.25.Determine the function w = f(x) where w equals the hourly wage in dollars and x equals the number of hours required to complete the trip.a) What trip time x will maximize the driver salary for the trip?b) What is the hourly wage associated with this trip?c) What is the maximum salaryd) How does this salary compare with that received for a 20 hours trip?
A computer equipment manufacturer produces scanners and printers. The resources needed for producing these devices and the corresponding profits are; If there are $200,000 worth of capital and 5240 hr of labor available each day, how many of each device should be produced per day to maximize profit.

32. A hardware company sells a lot of low-cost, highvolume products. For one such product, it is equallylikely that annual unit sales will be low or high. Ifsales are low (30,000), the company can sell theproduct for $20 per unit. If sales are high (70,000),a competitor will enter and the company will be ableto sell the product for only $15 per unit. The variablecost per unit has a 20% chance of being $10, a 60%chance of being $11, and a 20% chance of being $12.Annual fixed costs are $20,000.a. Use simulation to estimate the company’s expectedannual profit.b. Find a 95% interval for the company’s annualprofit, that is, an interval such that about 95% ofthe actual profits are inside it.c. Now suppose that annual unit sales, variable cost,and unit price are equal to their respective expectedvalues—that is, there is no uncertainty. Determinethe company’s annual profit for this scenario.d. Can you conclude from the results in parts a and cthat the expected profit from a simulation is…
