The Boeing Company faces a critical strategic choice in its competition with Airbus Industries for the long-haul flight segment: Should it design and build a super-747 model that can carry 550 passengers at speeds around 350 mph, or a plane that can fly at 95 percent of the speed of sound but carry only about 350 passengers? As a member of Boeing's Planning Group, your task is to build a model to investigate the trade-offs involved in this decision

- G.97.Brawdy Plastics, Inc., produces plastic seat belt retainers for General Motors at the Brawdy Plastics plant in Buffalo, New York. After final assembly and painting, the parts are placed on a conveyor belt that moves the parts past a final inspection station. How fast the parts move past the final inspection station depends upon the line speed of the conveyor belt (feet per minute). Although faster line speeds are desirable, management is concerned that increasing the line speed too much may not provide enough time for inspectors to identify which parts are actually defective. To test this theory, Brawdy Plastics conducted an experiment in which the same batch of parts, with a known number of defective parts, was inspected using a variety of line speeds. The following data were collected.

Use…Suppose that a firm can produce a part it uses for $520 per unit, with a fixed cost of $25,000. The company has been offered a contract from a supplier that allows it to purchase the part at a cost of $544 per unit, which includes transportation. The key outputs in the model are the difference in these costs and the decision that results in the lower cost. Assume that the production volume is uncertain. Suppose the manufacturer has enough data and information to estimate that the production volume will be normally distributed with a mean of 1,000 and a standard deviation of 85. Use a 100-trial Monte Carlo simulation to find the average cost difference and percent of trials that result in manufacturing or outsourcing as the best decision. Please include table showing both the cost difference and decision for each trial. Please include the Excel worksheet with all the details with your answer.

To assess profit potential, they need an estimate of demand for bottled water on campus. If demand exceeds the breakeven level of seven bottles per week per customer, the business would generate profit. The entrepreneurial class needs to know whether or not demand exceeds seven bottles per consumer per week, because below this level of demand, revenues wouldn’t cover expenses. Unless sample data indicates sufficient demand, the class will stop development. Since the class of entrepreneurs doesn’t know that the population mean is, they will estimate this mean using their sample data. They take a random sample of thirty students on campus and find that on average a student consumes 9.9 bottles per week. They also find that the sample standard deviation is 4.1 bottles per…
