Answer:

$1000

Explanation:

Expected value of worst payoff (Ew) = $1000

Expected value of best payoff (Eb) = $3000

Expected value with perfect information (Ewpi) = $5000

Expected value of perfect information (Evpi) = $1000

The decision is to choose the options the maximum payoff that payoff of $3000

The benefits of taking the offer - Ewpi - Eb - Evpi = $5000 - $3000 - $1000 = $1000

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

expected value of best case option = $3,000

expected value with perfect information = $5,000

expected value of perfect information = $5,000 - $3,000 = $2,000

cost of perfect information = $1,000

expected gain of perfect information = expected value of perfect information - cost of perfect information = $2,000 - $1,000 = $1,000

Serga [27]

Answer: Total Revenue is $100 and the price elasticity is 0.4

Explanation: total revenue is computed as Price * Quantity

$0.5 * 200= $100

Elasticity is the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price.

Old price $1

New price $0.5

Old quantity 75

New quantity 200

Formula- % change in quantity demanded / % change in pride

NB change is (old-new)

Change in Qd= (75-200) / 75 =-1.67

Change in price=(1-0.5)/1=0.5

-1.67/0.5= -3.34

The negative is ignored in price elasticity and the answer is 3.34 which means the product is Elastic

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Following is the solution for the given problem.

Explanation:

Best order size, EOQ =√2DS/H

EOQ = √2*4700*60/5

EOQ = 336 units.

D = 4700/300 = 15.66.

σ L= √∑σ²

= √3*(5)² = 8.66.

Reorder point, R = D*L+ z σ L

Reorder point, R = 15.66*3 + 1.282*8.66

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

<em>Net operating income  $8,950</em>

Explanation:

<em>The overall impact on the net operating income is the amount of increase in contribution from the addtional sales less the increase in monthly advertising budget. </em>

<em>                                                          $</em>

Contribution = ($75 × 190) =     14,250

Fixed cost - advertising       <u>    ( 5,300)   </u>    

Net operating income          <u>     8950</u>

Please, note that the fixed costs of $194,000 per month are not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way and that are not completely traceable to the increase sales.
