A ticket between Corellia and Dantooine (located in a galaxy far far away) sells for $150. The plane can hold 100 people. It costs $8000 to fly an empty plane. Each person on the plane incurs variable costs of $30 (for food and fuel). If the flight is overbooked, anyone who cannot get a seat receives $300 in compensation. On average, 95% of all people who have a reservation show up for the flight. To maximize profit, how many reservations for the flight should you book?
Hint: You can assume that the number of people that show up for a flight follows a binomial random variable.
Two dentists, Lydia Russell and Jerry Carlton, are planning to establish practices in a newly developed community. Both have allocated approximately the same total budget for advertising in the local newspaper and for the distribution of fliers announcing their practices. Because of the location of their offices, Russell is expected to get 47% of the business if both dentist advertise only in the local newspaper; if both dentist advertise through fliers, then Russell is expected to get 42% of the business; if Russell advertises exclusively in the local newspaper and Carlton advertises exclusively through fliers, then Russell is expected to get 50% of the business. Finally, if Russell advertises through fliers exclusively and Carlton advertises exclusively in the local newspaper, then Russell is expected to get 49% of the business.

- A manufacturing company receives orders for engines from two assembly plants. Plant I needs at least 45 engines, and plant II needs at least 32 engines. The company can send at most 120 engines to these assembly plants. It costs $30 per engine to ship to plant I and $40 per engine to ship to plant II. Plant I gives the manufacturing company $20 in rebates toward its products for each engine they buy, while plant Il gives similar $15 rebates. The manufacturer estimates that they need at least $1500 in rebates to cover products they plan to buy from the two plants. How many engines should be shipped to each plant to minimize shipping costs? What is the minimum cost?

The annual rates of return for the three types of loans are 7% for home loans, 12% for personal loans, and 9% for automobile loans. The bank’s planning committee has decided that at least 40% of the new funds must be allocated to home loans. In addition, the planning committee has specified that the amount allocated to personal loans cannot exceed 60% of the amount allocated to automobile loans. Assume that ASB has the original $1 million in new funds available and that the planning committee has agreed to relax the requirement that at least 40% of the new funds must be allocated to home loans by 1%.

- Southwest Hospital has an operating room used only for eye surgery. The annual cost of rent, heat, and electricity for the operating room and its equipment is $360,000, and the annual salaries of the people who staff this room total $540,000. Each surgery performed requires the use of $760 worth of medical supplies and drugs. To promote good will, every patient receives a bouquet of flowers the day after surgery. In addition, one-quarter of the patients require dark glasses, which the hospital provides free of charge. It costs the hospital $30 for each bouquet of flowers and $40 for each pair of glasses. The hospital receives a payment of $2000 for each eye operation performed. 1. Identify the revenue per case and the annual fixed and variable costs for running the operating room. 2.

- Tech has three health care plans for its faculty and staff to choose from, as follows: Plan 1-monthly cost of $32, with a $500 deductible; the participants pay the first $500 of medical costs for the year; the insurer pays 90% of all remaining expenses. Plan 2-monthly cost of $5 but a deductible of $1,200, with the insurer paying 90% of medical expenses after the insurer pays the first $1,200 in a year. Plan 3-monthly cost of $24, with no deductible; the participants pay 30% of all expenses, with the remainder paid by the insurer.

The store would like to reduce these losses and is considering two methods. The first is to hire a security guard, and the second is to install cameras. To help decide which method to choose, the manager hired a security guard for 6 months. During the next 6-month period, the store installed cameras. The monthly losses were recorded and are listed here. The manager decided that because the cameras were cheaper than the guard, he would install the cameras unless there was enough evidence to infer that the guard was better. What should the manager do?
