Assume Clinique expects to sell 3 million ounces of BB cream within the first year after introduction butexpects that half of those sales will come from buyers who would otherwise purchase Clinique’s moisturizer (that is, cannibalized sales). Assuming that Cliniquenormally sells 10 million ounces of moisturizer per year and that the company will incur an increase in fixed costs of $2 million during the first year of production for the BB cream, will the new product be profitable for the company?

Economics Daegu considers producing electric razors for men. If the market demand is high, he would get a return of $100,000, but if there were a low demand for this type of razor, he would lose $60,000. Daegu also considers the possibility of ordering a market survey to gather additional information about the market demand. The survey includes a sophisticated questionnaire administered to a test market and costs $5,000. Daegu believes that there is a 62:38 chance that the market information will be favorable (i.e., predicting a high market demand) and unfavorable (i.e., predicting a low market demand). Furthermore, the probabilities of a favorable survey given a high market demand and an unfavorable survey given a low demand are both 0.8. Daegu is not sure if the value of the survey is worth the cost Draw the decision tree and advise Daegu
11. For most products, higher prices result in a decreased demand, whereas lower prices result in an increased demand (economists refer to such products as normal goods). Let d = annual demand for a product in units p = price per unit Assume that a firm accepts the following price-demand relationship as being a realistic representation of its market: d = 800 - 10p where p must be between $20 and $70. a. How many units can the firm sell at the $20 per-unit price? At the $70 per-unit price? b. What happens to annual units demanded for the product if the firm increases the per-unit price from $26 to $27? From $42 to $43? From $68 to $69? What is the suggested relationship between per-unit price and annual demand for the product in units? c. Show the mathematical model for the total revenue (TR), which is the annual demand multiplied by the unit price. d. Based on other considerations, the firm's management will only consider price alternatives of $30, $40, and $50. Use your model from…
