Katie charges her husband $400 to share her booth at the craft shows (after all, she has paid the entrance fees). How many of each plant stand does Bobby need to sell to breakeven? Will this affect the number of scarves Katie needs to sell to breakeven? Explain.

The salespeople at Larkspur, a notebook manufacturer, commonly pressured operations managers to keep costs down so the company could give bigger discounts to large customers. David, the operations supervisor, leaked the $0.80 total unit cost to salespeople, who were thrilled, since that was slightly lower than the previous year's unit cost. Budgets were not yet finalized for the upcoming year, so it was unclear what the target unit cost would be. David knew the current year's operating capacity was two million notebooks, and Larkspur produced and sold just that many. The detailed breakdown of the $0.80 total unit cost is as follows. Direct material Direct labor Variable overhead Fixed overhead Total cost per unit $0.05 0.20 0.15 0.40 $0.80

Recently, a sales rep from one of the company's suppliers suggested that Whitcomb could increase its profitability by 40 percent if it introduced a second line of products, packaged dried fruit for snacks. The rep offered to do the analysis and show the company the assumptions made. When Whitcomb's management opened the spreadsheet sent by the sales rep, they noticed that there were several blank cells. In the meantime, the sales rep had taken a job with a competitor and told the managers at Whitcomb that "I can no longer advise you." Although they were not sure they should rely on the analysis, they asked you to see if you could reconstruct the sales rep's analysis. They had been considering this new business already and wanted to see if their analysis was close to that of an outside observer. Required: Complete the below table by filling in the blank cells.

Your friend, Julia, owns a corner store in your neighborhood. She purchases fresh milk from a nearby farm and sells them in her store. Cost of the milk is $5 per case, and each case can be sold for $6 per case. Since the milk does not go through rigorous treatment, it should be sold within a week. Any milk that is not sold during the week can be sold back to the farm for $2 per case. Based on the historical, she identified the following probability distribution of the demand. Weekly Demand (cases) Probability 16 0.05 17 0.15 18 0.35 19 0.25 20 0.2 One of the reasons why people come to her store is the availability of fresh milk, and those customers typically make other purchases along with fresh milk. She believes there will be a loss of such sales if she is not able to have enough fresh milk in the store, and estimates this loss to be $2 per case. Julia needs some help to determine how many cases of fresh milk she needs to order for the coming…
