Quality Air Conditioning manufactures three home air conditioners: an economy model, a standard model, and a deluxe model. The p

rofits per unit are $57, $93, and $141, respectively. The production requirements per unit are as follows:
Number of
Fans Number of
Cooling Coils Manufacturing
Time (hours)
Economy 1 1 8

STandard 1 2 12

Deluxe 1 4 14

For the coming production period, the company has 320 fan motors, 380 cooling coils, and 3200 hours of manufacturing time available. How many economy models (E), standard models (S), and deluxe models (D) should the company produce in order to maximize profit? The linear programming model for the problem is as follows:

Max 57E + 93S + 141D
s.t.
1E + 1S + 1D ≤ 320 Fan motors
1E + 2S + 4D ≤ 380 Cooling coils
8E + 12S + 14D ≤ 3200 Manufacturing time
E, S, D ≥ 0
The sensitivity report is shown in the figure below.

a. Identify the range of optimality for each objective function coefficient. If there is no limit, then enter the text "NA" as your answer. If required, round your answers to one decimal place.

Objective Coefficient Range
Variable lower limit upper limit
E
S
D
b. Suppose the profit for the economy model (E) is increased by $6 per unit, the profit for the standard model (S) is decreased by $2 per unit, and the profit for the deluxe model (D) is increased by $4 per unit. What will the new optimal solution be? If required, round your answers to three decimal places. If your answer is zero, enter "0".

Optimal Solution
E
S
D
If required, round your answer for Total Profit to two decimal places.

Total Profit: $

c. Identify the range of feasibility for the right-hand-side values. If there is no limit, then enter the text "NA" as your answer. If required, round your answers to one decimal place.

Right-Hand-Side-Range
Constraints lower limit upper limit
Fan motors
Cooling coils
Manufacturing time
d. If the number of cooling coils available for production is increased by 120, will the dual value for that constraint change?

YES because the allowable increase for cooling coils is _____ without changing the optimal solution.

Meacham Enterprises' bonds currently sell for $1,280 and have a par value of $1,000. They pay a $135 annual coupon and have a 15
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Yield to call (YTC) = 7.64%

Explanation:

Yield to call (YTC) = {coupon + [(call price - market price)/n]} / [(call price + market price)/2]

YTC = {135 + [(1,050 - 1,280)/5]} / [(1,050 + 1,280)/2]

YTC = 89 / 1,165 = 0.07639 = 7.64%

Yield to call is how much a bondholder will earn if the bond is actually called, and it may differ from yield to maturity since the call price is generally higher than the face value, but the yield to maturity generally is longer than the call period.

Prock Petroleum's stock has a required return of 15%, and the stock sells for $60 per share. The firm just paid a dividend of $1
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Price =[PVF15%,1*D1]+[PVF15%,2*D2]+[PVF15%,3*D3]+[PVF15%,4*D4]+[PVF15%,4*Terminal value at year4 ]

60 = [.86957* 1.3]+[.75614*1.69]+[.65752*2.197]+[.57175*2.8561]+[.57175*TV]

     = 1.1304+ 1.2779+ 1.4446+ 1.6330+ .57175TV

60 = 5.4859+.57175TV

Terminal value = [60-5.4859]/.57175

         = 54.5141/.57175

       = $ 95.3460

Terminal value=D4(1+g)/(Rs-g)

95.3460 =2.8561(1+g)/(.15-g)

95.3460(.15-g)= 2.8561-2.8561g

  14.3019- 95.3460g = 2.8561-2.8561g

   95.3460g-2.8561g = 14.3019-2.8561

     92.4899 g = 11.4458

   g = 11.4458/92.4899

        = .1238 or 12.38%

Growth after year4 = 12.38%

**D1 =1(1+.30)=1.3

D2 =1.3(1+.3)=1.69

D3 = 1.69(1+.3)= 2.197

D4= 2.197(1+.3)= 2.8561
