3-32 ** High-low method, regression analysis OBJECTIVES 4, 5 Rockhampton College has recently opened a restaurant as part of its hospitality major. For the first 10 weeks the manager did not estimate any costs but instead hoped revenues would cover costs. One of the new waiters, who happens to be taking a cost accounting class, suggests that the manager take the past known weekly costs and try to determine a cost equation by relating the cost to the number of customers served. The cost and customer data are as follows: Week Number of customers per week Weekly total costs of restaurant 751 $16800 745 16597 3 810 17 800 4 833 18 600 825 876 17900 19600 7 855 18900 8. 897 18500 925 20305 10 910 20000 The manager gives this information to the waiter, who runs a regression and gets the following equation: Weekly total restaurant costs = $2453 + ($19.04 × Number of customers per week) Required 1 Plot the relationship between number of customers per week and weekly total restaurant costs. 2…
Economic Dispatch Question It is required to investigate the economic dispatch of three power plants located in the western part of Victoria. The total load (PD) to be supplied by those power plants is 1500 MW. Assume the cost functions and the generation limits for these power plants are as follows. 350+ 4.2 P₁ + 0.006 P² 600 + 3.1 P₂ + 0.004 P² 500+ 4.2 P3 +0.007 P3 a) b) c) Plant 1: C₁ Plant 2: C₂ Plant 3: C3 = = = 150 ≤ P₁ ≤ 550 350 ≤ P₂ ≤ 700 120 ≤P3 ≤ 400 If the total load is shared among the three power plants equally, what is power generation of each power plant and what is the total operating cost in $/hr in this case. Find the optimal (economic) dispatch of each plant, the incremental operating cost 1, and the total operation cost in $/hr. (You don't need to use the iteration method). If it is expected that those power plant will operate in average 18 hrs a day, how much saving in cost if the economic dispatch operation with shared power operation (in part a).

Davis Stores sells clothing in 15 stores located around the southwestern United States. The managers at Davis are considering expanding by opening new stores and are interested in estimating costs in potential new locations. They believe that costs are driven in large part by store volume measured by revenue. The following data were collected from last year’s operations (revenues and costs in thousands of dollars). Store Revenues Costs 101 $4,120 $4,244 102 2,247 2,934 103 5,768 5,211 104 4,022 4,048 105 2,944 3,736 106 4,063 3,389 107 6,914 5,059 108 1,809 2,474 109 5,516 4,768 110…
