A suburban specialty restaurant has developed a single drive-thru window. Customers order, pay, and pick up their food at the sa

andrew11 [14]

Solution :

The average number of the arrivals, λ = 6 per hour

Average service rate, $\mu = \frac{60 \times 2}{15}$

= 8

Average number of the customers in the system is given by,

$= \frac{\lambda}{\mu - \lambda }$

$= \frac{6}{8 - 6 }$

= 3

Average number of the customers that are waiting in the line behind the person who are being served is,

$=\frac{\left(\frac{\lambda}{\mu}\right)^2}{1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu}}$

$=\frac{\left(\frac{6}{8}\right)^2}{1-\frac{6}{8}}$

$=\frac{(0.75)^2 }{0.25}$

= 2.25

Proportion of the time the server is busy,

$=\frac{\lambda}{\mu}$

$=\frac{6}{8}$

= 0.75

The total cost incurred by Pharoah with the Mega Tax software is given by the fixed cost of $486, referring to the annual fees, added to the cost per tax return of $11 multiplied by the volume of returns filed (n):

$C= \$486+(\$11*n)$

i. if 316 returns are filed? (n = 316)

$C= \$486+(\$11*316)\\C=\$3,962$

ii. If 408 returns are filed? (n = 408)

$C= \$486+(\$11*408)\\C=\$4,974$

iii. If 524 returns are filed? (n = 524)

$C= \$486+(\$11*524)\\C=\$6,250$
