- Assume the demand for a companys drug Wozac during the current year is 50,000, and assume demand will grow at 5% a year. If the company builds a plant that can produce x units of Wozac per year, it will cost 16x. Each unit of Wozac is sold for 3. Each unit of Wozac produced incurs a variable production cost of 0.20. It costs 0.40 per year to operate a unit of capacity. Determine how large a Wozac plant the company should build to maximize its expected profit over the next 10 years.Scenario 3 Ben Gibson, the purchasing manager at Coastal Products, was reviewing purchasing expenditures for packaging materials with Jeff Joyner. Ben was particularly disturbed about the amount spent on corrugated boxes purchased from Southeastern Corrugated. Ben said, I dont like the salesman from that company. He comes around here acting like he owns the place. He loves to tell us about his fancy car, house, and vacations. It seems to me he must be making too much money off of us! Jeff responded that he heard Southeastern Corrugated was going to ask for a price increase to cover the rising costs of raw material paper stock. Jeff further stated that Southeastern would probably ask for more than what was justified simply from rising paper stock costs. After the meeting, Ben decided he had heard enough. After all, he prided himself on being a results-oriented manager. There was no way he was going to allow that salesman to keep taking advantage of Coastal Products. Ben called Jeff and told him it was time to rebid the corrugated contract before Southeastern came in with a price increase request. Who did Jeff know that might be interested in the business? Jeff replied he had several companies in mind to include in the bidding process. These companies would surely come in at a lower price, partly because they used lower-grade boxes that would probably work well enough in Coastal Products process. Jeff also explained that these suppliers were not serious contenders for the business. Their purpose was to create competition with the bids. Ben told Jeff to make sure that Southeastern was well aware that these new suppliers were bidding on the contract. He also said to make sure the suppliers knew that price was going to be the determining factor in this quote, because he considered corrugated boxes to be a standard industry item. Is Ben Gibson acting legally? Is he acting ethically? Why or why not?Scenario 3 Ben Gibson, the purchasing manager at Coastal Products, was reviewing purchasing expenditures for packaging materials with Jeff Joyner.

- Daily demand for a type of sandwich sold at DoorRed Cafe (DRC) is normally distributed with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 27. DRC orders the sandwiches from a wholesaler (everyday morning before 5:30 AM) at a wholesale price of $4 per sandwich and sells them at a retail price of $7 per sandwich. Pursuant to the contract between DRC and its wholesaler, the transportation cost is currently borne by the wholesaler. The wholesaler does not take back any unsold sandwiches. However, DRC can sell any unsold inventory at a discounted price of $3 after 5:00 PM every day. d) Now suppose that the contract between DRC and its wholesaler expires and pursuant to the new contract, if DRC orders more than 56 sandwiches (anything more than or equal to 57), the transportation cost is no longer borne by the wholesaler and DRC will have to pay $30 for transportation. If DRC orders less than or equal to 56, the transportation cost for DRC is still zero.

The airline knows from history that an average of 28 customers (with a standard deviation of 14) cancel their reservation or do not show for the flight. Revenue from a ticket on the flight is $122. If the flight is overbooked, the airline has a policy of getting the customer on the next available flight and giving the person a free round-trip ticket on a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $228. Super Discount considers the cost of flying the plane from New York to Los Angeles a sunk cost. By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight? Note: Use Excel's NORM.S.INV function to find the z value. Round z value to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.Demand for team swimsuits at a local sports store is normally distributed with a mean of 205 per day and a standard deviation of 18, while the lead time for new orders of swimsuits is 12 days with a standard deviation of 6. the standard deviation of demand during lead time,
- Three years ago, Barbara Jones started a business that creates and delivers holiday and birthday gift baskets to students at the local university. Barbara sells the baskets for $ 29 each, and her variable costs are $ 19 per basket. She incurs $ 12,500 in fixed costs each year. Last year, Barbara sold 4,000 baskets, and she believes that demand this year will be stable at 4,000 baskets. The following are the actions Barbara could take if she wants to earn $ 30,900 in operating income by selling only 4,000 baskets. Consider each action independently.

The retailer sells the product at an exogenousand fixed retail price r. The manufacturer produces the product at a unit cost of c. Themanufacturer uses a linear sales rebate contract and determines the following contract terms:For each unit ordered, he charges the retailer a wholesale price w, and for each unit sold, hepays the retailer a rebate s.
