R(p) = pN(p).| Bob is currently selling tires for 60 dollars each. His weekly sales are running at 130 tires per week, so N(60) = 130. His marketing department estimates that he will lose 2 sales per week for each 10 dollar increase in unit price, so N'(60) = -0.2. Estimate Bob's increase in weekly revenue for each one dollar increase in tire price. Revenue increase =1 dollars

It specializes in the manufacture of plasma cutting torches. Over the past eight years it has held the Chinese renminbi price of the PT350 cutting torch fixed at Rmb 18,000 per unit. Over that same period it has worked to reduce costs per unit, but has struggled of late due to higher input costs. Over that same period the renminbi has continued to be revalued against the U.S. dollar by the Chinese government. After completing the table - assuming the same price in renminbi for all years - answer the following questions. Cost ACFI260 Fin... a.

Question 5 A machine that produces a certain piece must be turned off by the operator after each piece is completed. The machine "coasts" for 15 seconds after it is turned off, thus preventing the operator from removing the piece quickly before producing the next piece. An engineer has suggested installing a brake that would reduce the coasting time to 3 seconds. The machine produces 50,000 pieces a year. The time to produce one piece is 1 minute 45 seconds, excluding coastint time. The operator earns $8 an hour and direct costs for operation are $5 an hour. The direct costs are incurred whenever the operator has to work. The brake will require servicing every 520 hours of operation. It will take the operator 30 minutes to perform the necessary maintenance and will require $42 in parts and material. The brake is expected to last 7,500 hours of operation (with proper maintenance) and will have no salvage value. How much could be spent for the brake if the Minimum Attractive Rate of…

American solar farms receive billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies each year. These subsidies allow them to substitute grain production for energy production. How do U.S. solar farm subsidies hurt or benefit Mexican farmers? 2. What does this imply for U.S. food production independence? What could be done to address this problem, and would the solution be effective? Notice, having a positive effect, a negative effect or no net-effect is a possibility on Mexican farmers.

Every year, there is some form of construction work going on at UF's campus. In January 2018, bids were opened for a new building on campus for UFPD. The bid/construction value of the building was set at $5 Million. Another building of similar structure and purpose is planned with a bid opening in January 2023. What is the expected bid for the new building? It is given that in January 2000, the Florida Construction Cost Index had a value of 5550, while in January 2018, that value was 8000. You can use these price indices to calculate an average inflation in construction costs.
Problem 6Cannes Croissants (not a real company) wishes to determine the optimum production quantity for its topselling product, almond croissants. The annual demandfor almond croissants is 12,000 units. The setup costs fora production run of the croissants is US$15. The holdingcost per unit per year is US$0.50. Production is mostefficient when 80 croissants are produced per day. Thecompany operates 300 days during a year.a What is the economic production quantity (EPQ)?b How many production runs will there by per year?c What is the maximum inventory level?d What is the total annual cost (in US dollars)?e What is the length of a production run in days?
