McBurger, Inc., wants to redesign its kitchens to improve productivity and quality. Three designs, called designs K1, K2, and K3, are under consideration. No matter which design is used, daily production of sandwiches at a typical McBurger restaurant is for 550 sandwiches. A sandwich costs $1.40 to produce. Non-defective sandwiches sell, on the average, for $2.50 per sandwich. Defective sandwiches cannot be sold and are scrapped. The goal is to choose a design that maximizes the expected profit at a typical restaurant over a 300-day period. Designs K1, K2, and K3 cost $100,000, $140,000, and $160,000, respectively. Under design K1, there is a .80 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .20 chance that 70 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K2, there is a .85 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .15 chance that 75 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K3, there is a…
Mohave Corp. makes several varieties of beach umbrellas and accessories. It has been approached by a company called Lost Mine Industries about producing a special order for a custom umbrella called the Ultimate Shade (US). The special-order umbrellas with the Lost Mine Company logo would be distributed to participants at an upcoming convention sponsored by Lost Mine. Lost Mine has offered to buy 3,200 of the US umbrellas at a price of $33 each. Mohave currently has the excess capacity necessary to accept the offer. The following information is related to the production of the US umbrella: Direct materials $ 13.00 Direct labor 7.00 Variable manufacturing overhead 9.50 Fixed manufacturing overhead 2.50 Total cost $ 32.00 Regular sales price $ 41.00 Required:1. Assume that Mohave is operating at full capacity. Calculate the special-order price per unit at which Mohave would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order.

The price per pound of the farm-level commodity for boneless, skinless chicken breasts are $4.42 per pound. The dollar per pound of a grocery store boneless, skinless chicken breasts is $12.17 per pound. The dollar value of Chick-fil-a's version of the original farm-level commodity of the Original Chicken Sandwich is at $4.49 per sandwich. 1. Estimate the cost and weight of the meal and divide the cost of the meal by the share of the commodity in the meal. We are just assigning values and weights. (If my calculations are right, the sandwich itself weighed about 5 ounces: 5/16 = 0.3125 lbs. 0.3125 * 4.49 = $1.40/lb. -is that correct?) 2. Divide the $/lb farm-level value by the grocery store $/lb value. 3. Divide the $/lb farm-level value by the restaurant $/lb value
