In preparing for the upcoming holiday season, Fresh Toy Company (FTC) designed a new doll called The Dougie that teaches children how to dance. The fixed cost to produce the doll is $100,000. The variable cost, which includes material, labor, and shipping costs, is $32 per doll. During the holiday selling season, FTC will sell the dolls for $40 each. If FTC overproduces the dolls, the excess dolls will be sold in January through a distributor who has agreed to pay FTC $10 per doll. Demand for new toys during the holiday selling season is extremely uncertain. Forecasts are for expected sales of 60,000 dolls with a standard deviation of 15,000. The normal probability distribution is assumed to be a good description of the demand. FTC has tentatively decided to produce 60,000 units (the same as average demand), but it wants to conduct an analysis regarding this production quantity before finalizing the decision. (a) Determine the equation for computing FTC's profit for given values of the…

A chef must decide how many chocolate lava cakes to prepare for the upcoming Mother's Day Dinner special. The chef can either prepare 50, 100, or 150 lava cakes. Assume that demand for the lava cakes can be 50, 100, or 150. Each dish costs $5 to make and is priced at for $7 on the menu. Unsold cakes are donated to a nearby charity center. Assume that there is no opportunity cost for lost sales. The cafe owner told the chef that in the past years, the probability that clients will order 50 cakes is 0.30; the probability they will order 100 cakes is 0.50, and the probability that they will order 150 cakes is 0.20. What is the best alternative using the EMV criterion?
