Consider the following strategic interaction. You hire a builder to build a warehouse. After the construction is almost done, you realize that the color is bad, so you ask the builder to change the paint, which involves a trivial expense ($200) for the builder. However, the builder charges you $1500 for changing the order. You can search for another painter. It will costs you $200 for painting and $1400 for your time (this is your opportunity cost). If the builder charges you the actual cost of $200, he breaks even. In addition, you receive a $1500 value for the color you like. Please draw the game tree. You need to mark the players, their strategies, and the corresponding payoffs clearly. Please make sure that there is no room for misinterpretation.

Estimate the cost to make the water bottle that I described in the last question above. What will you sell this for. Based on your sales price what do you estimate the gross profit margin will be f

5) Your t-shirt company currently uses a manual printing system to put designs on blank shirts (all equipment is paid for). The cost of goods sold is $8 and the retail price for the shirts is $25. You currently print 11,000 shirts/year with this equipment and that is the maximum capacity. You are considering investing in new equipment. You came across a semi-automated printing system for $30,000, plus you'll need to spend $5,000 for the electrician to update wiring and connect the equipment. To break even in one year, how many (total) shirts would you need to print next year?

After graduation, you decide to go into a partnership in an office supply store that has existed for a number of years. Walking through the store and stockrooms, you find a great discrepancy in service levels. Some spaces and bins for items are completely empty; others have supplies that are covered with dust and have obviously been there a long time. You decide to take on the project of establishing consistent levels of inventory to meet customer demands. Most of your supplies are purchased from just a few distributors that call on your store once every two weeks. You choose, as your first item for study, computer printer paper. You examine the sales records and purchase orders and find that demand for the past 12 months was 5,000 boxes. Using your calculator, you sample some days' demands and estimate that the standard deviation of daily demand is 10 boxes. You also search out these figures: Cost per box of paper: $11 Desired service probability: 98 percent Store is open every day.…

You need to replace your dryer. Both a big box store and a local appliance dealer are selling a dryer for the same price. Which of the following alternatives has a relevant benefit? A big box store offers free expedited delivery, making its delivery date the same as a local appliance dealer.

If the unit selling price is P16, the unit variable cost is P12, and fixed costs are P160,000, what is the break-even sales (units)?

What is make-or-buy analysis? Suppose that your company is trying to decide whether it should buy special equipment to prepare high-quality publications itself or lease the equipment from another company. Suppose that leasing the equipment costs $240 per day. If you decide to purchase the equipment, the initial investment is $6,800, and operations will cost $70 per day. After how many days will the lease cost be the same as the purchase cost for the equipment? Assume that your company would only use this equipment for 30 days. Should your company buy the equipment or lease it?

Aling Minda is operating a buy and sell business, she sells broomsticks (walis tingting) in her stall at a local market. She gets her broomsticks from a local supplier for 25 pesos each. She then adds 50 percent mark-up on each broomstick. Every day, aling Minda can sell 30 broomsticks a day. Use the template below and fill in the necessary figures based on the scenario. Remember to use the factors to consider in projecting revenues and refer to tables 1, 2 and 3 as your guide. Table 1 Projected Daily Revenue Name of Business Projected Projected Cost Volume Mark-up Selling Revenue per (D) _% Price (E) Merchandise/ Unit Average No. (B) (C) Products (A) of Items (Daily) Sold (Daily) (B)= (A x (A) (C)= (A+B) (D) (E) =(C x D) .50) Total

I know this is on Bartleby, but the solution is still not leading me to understand it. Can I have a more in-depth explanation? We are thinking of opening a small copy shop. It costs us $5000 to rent a copier for a year. It costs us $0.03 per copy to operate the copier. Other fixed costs of running the store amount to $400 per month. We charge an average of $0.10 per copy. We are open 365 days per year. Each copier can make up to 100,000 copies per year. Formulate a model for annual profit.a. Create a two-way table for 1 to 5 copiers rented and daily demands of 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 copies per day. That is, compute annual profit for each of these combinations of copiers rented and daily demand.b. If we rent three copiers, what daily demand for copies will allow us to break even?c. Using the data table from part a, chart profit as a function of the number of copiers; for a daily demand of 500 copies, and for a daily demand of 2000 copies. Show both lines on the same chart.
