Carr Company produced a pilot run of ninety units of a recently developed piston used in one of its products. Carr expected to produce and sell 1,890 units annually. The pilot run required an average of 0.55 direct labor hours per piston for 90 pistons. Carr experienced an seventy percent learning curve on the direct labor hours needed to produce new pistons. Past experience indicated that learning tends to cease by the time 1,440 pistons are produced. Carr's manufacturing costs for pistons are presented below. Direct labor $ 18.00 per direct labor hour
Variable overhead 8.00 per direct labor hour
Fixed overhead 20.00 per direct labor hour
Materials 3.00 per unit
Carr received a quote of $10 per unit from Truck Machine Company for the additional 1,800 needed pistons. Carr frequently subcontracts this type of work and has always been satisfied with the quality of the units produced by Truck. If the pistons are manufactured by Carr Company, the total direct labor hours for the first 1,440 pistons (including the pilot run) produced is calculated to be (round to two digits after the decimal point):.

M. cotteleer electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. one of the components has an annual demand of 235 units, and this is constant throughout the year. carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering (setup) cost is $21 per order. a) to minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed? b) how many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy? c) what is the average inventory if costs are minimized? d) suppose that the ordering cost is not $21, and cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. for this order policy (of q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.

David consumes two things: gasoline (g) and bread (b). david's utility function is u(g, b) = 10g^0.25 b^0.75. use the lagrange technique to solve for david's optimal choices of gasoline and bread as a function of the price of gasoline, p_g, the price of bread, p_b, and his income m. with recent decrease in the price of gasoline (maybe due to external shock such as shale gas production) does david increase his consumption of gasoline? for david, how does partial differential g/partial differential p_g depend on his income m? that is, how does david's change in gasoline consumption due to an increase in the price of gasoline depend on his income level? to answer these questions, find the cross-partial derivative, |partial differential^2 g/partial differential m partial differential p_g.
