Suppose that a company needs 1,500,000 items during a year and that preparation for each production run costs $900. Suppose also that it costs $14 to produce each item and $3 per year to store an item. Use the inventory cost model to find the number of items in each production run so that the total costs of production and storage are minimized.

A vendor charges $43 for a jacket. What is the demand function?
A demand of 230 banquet attendees can be expected at a dinner plate price of $80.00 each. A demand of 370 banquet attendees can be expected at a dinner plate price of $45.00 each. Catering Service A has a fixed cost of $1,800 and a marginal cost of $30 for each plate. Catering Service B has a fixed cost of $2,500 and a marginal cost of $22 for each plate. Costs for both caterers include the food, drinks, plates, utensils, tablecloths, glasses, crew, and cleanup. Dinner plates will only be sold as an entire unit. To justify company resources and to ensure the event will benefit the charity, the CEO insists the tickets be sold for no less than $40. All profits will go toward a charity of the committee's choosing. Additional spontaneous donation to the charity will be accepted the night of the banquet. Studies estimate that 5% will give $5, 23% will give $20, 18% will give $50, 7% will give $100, and 2% will give $500. Determine the break-even quantities for each of the two possible…

Eid-ul-Adha is right around the corner. Every year End largely affects the commodity market. Suppose, Government has imposed a maximum selling price of per kg onion at 50 taka, whereas the market price was 70 taka per kg before the announcement a. explain the effects of this ceiling price on the demand and supply of the onion market. In your graph , show the effects of the price changes on quantity demanded and quantity supplied. Does it create excess supply or excess demand? What will happen to the market price? b. In the above situation, who (buyers or sellers) is going to get the benefit from such policy? Explain it in your own words (due: use a graph where a Price Ceiling is binding)
