beer requires 5 lb of corn and 2 lb of hops. Producing a barrel of ale requires 2 lb of corn and 1 lb of hops. 60 lb of corn and 25 lb of hops are available. Formulate an LP that can be used to maximize revenue. Solve the LP graphically.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Let x represent the amount of beer sold and y represent the amount of ale sold. The revenue of selling x barrels of beer is 5x and selling y barrels of ale is 2y hence the total revenue = 5x + 2y. If z represent the maximum revenue then:

z = 5x + 2y

Since 60 lb of corn is available and beer requires 5 lb of corn while ale require 2 lb of corn hence:

5x + 2y ≤ 60

Also, 25 lb of hops is available and beer requires 2 lb of hops while ale require 1 lb of hops hence:

2x + y ≤ 25

Also x > 0 and y > 0

The LP is:

z = 5x + 2y

5x + 2y ≤ 60

2x + y ≤ 25

x > 0 and y > 0

Using geogebra graphing, the maximum revenue is at (0, 30)

Hence:

z = 5x + 2y = 5(0) + 2(30) = 60

The maximum revenue is 60

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

1. Which Statement is true:

B. low p/e ratio could mean that the company has a great deal of uncertainty in its future earnings.

2. Qualitative analysis:

According to your understanding, a company with less competition is considered to be (more or less) risky than companies with a wide multiple competitors.

Explanation:

Company A's Price/Earnings (P/E) ratio is calculated as the market price of its shares divided by the earnings per share.  It shows the value investors have over a stock.  With a high P/E ratio, the company's stock could be over-valued, or investors are expecting high growth rates in the future.  This is unlike a low P/E ratio that shows that the stock is undervalued or that investors are not expecting high growth rates in the future because of uncertainty.

Without competition, Company A is riskier  than Company B which operates efficiently and competitively.  There is that competitive edge that competitive companies possess.  Monopolies do not enjoy that advantage.  It is, therefore, riskier to have no competition.

<h3>What is Globalization?</h3>

The contact and integration of people, businesses, and governments around the globe is known as globalization (Commonwealth English; see spelling variations). Since the 18th century, globalization has accelerated due to advancements in communications and transportation technologies. The expansion of international trade and the sharing of ideas, beliefs, and cultures are both results of the increase in global relationships. The main function of globalization is an economic process of connection and integration that has social and cultural components. However, the history of globalization and contemporary globalization both include significant amounts of disagreements and international diplomacy.

Globalization affects the economy in terms of commodities, services, information, technology, and financial resources. The opening up of international marketplaces has a liberating effect on trade in products and money.

Suppose that you own a 20-acre plot of land that you would like to rent out to wheat farmers. For them, bringing in a harvest in
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

1. The most that the farmer would pay to rent 20 acre is $100.

2. The price of wheat rose to $6 per bushel is $900.

Explanation:

Given the information, we have:

Total cost per acre

= $35 + $80 + $70 = $185

Revenue from wheat per acre

= 40 x $5 = $200

Contribution per acre = $200 - $185 = $15

The most that the farmer would pay to rent 20 acre is

==>20 x ($15 - $10) = $100

If the price of wheat rose to $6, the most that farmer would pay

= 20 x (240 - 185 - 10)

= $900
