Suppose that there is asymmetric information in the market for used cars. Sellers know the quality of the car that they are​ sel

ling, but buyers do not. Buyers know that there is a 50​% chance of getting a​ "lemon", a low quality used car. A high quality used car is worth​ $30,000, and a low quality used car is worth​ $15,000. Based on this​ probability, the most that a buyer would be willing to pay for a used car is ​$________. ​(Enter your response rounded to the nearest​ dollar.)

Answer:

$22,500

Explanation:

Chance of getting low quality car = 50%

Chance of getting high quality car = 50%

Cost of low quality car = $15,000

Cost of high quality car = $30,000

So, Price of the car = 50% of lower quality + 50% of higher quality

= (50% × $15,000) + (50% ×30,000)

=  $7,500 + $15,000

= $22,500

Hence, price of the used car will be $22,500.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": as-late-as-possible.

Explanation:

Primavera P6 is a Project Management Program useful to plan, schedule, execute, and control projects. In scheduling, there are constraints such as the As-Late-As-Possible (ALAP) which is used to delay a project's start without affecting its completion. For manufacturers using the Just-In-Time (JIT) inventory ALAP will be beneficial since the arrival of the raw materials must be delayed until it reaches the plant.

solong [7]

Answer:

0.2706 ; 0.05265 ; 0.1353

Explanation:

Given that :

λ = 2

According to the poisson distribution formula :

P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!

P(x = 1) = (2^1 *e^-2) / 1!

P(x = 1) = (2 * 0.1353352) = 0.2706

P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)

1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - [p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3) + p(x = 4)]

We obtain and add the individual probabilities. To save computation time, we can use a poisson distribution calculator :

1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - (0.13534+0.27067+0.27067+0.18045+0.09022)

1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - 0.94735 = 0.05265

P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5) = 0.05265

Probability that no emails was received :

x = 0

P(x = 0) = (2^0 *e^-2) / 0!

P(x = 0) = (1 * 0.1353352) / 1 = 0.1353
