e nothing in inventory at the end of July. Livingston employs 500 production assembly workers and it takes one production assembly worker 3 minutes to assemble one unit of finished good. (The unit is complete at that point.) Each production assembly worker can provide 160 hours of assembly time a month without requiring overtime pay. a. Livingston wants to complete this plan without working any overtime in assembly. How many additional production assembly workers does Livingston need to hire to accomplish this? When should they be hired? b. Using this production plan, how many units will be in inventory at the end of October? c. What will the average inventory level be each month?

Answer:

Explanation:

worker's production rate = 60/3 = 20units per hour

monthly capacity 160 x 20 = 3200 units.

capacity needed to produce 2000000 units

= 2000000/3200

= 625

therefore, since they already have 500 workers, they need to hire 125 more workers.

b) At the end of October they will have 2 million inventory.

c) Average inventory in each of the months has been listed in the attachment below.

Suppose you are running a carnival. You are selling hamburgers and sodas. A hamburger is $1.75 and a soda is .75. You expect to
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

<em>Hamburgers = 27</em>

<em>Sodas = 93</em>

Explanation:

Let        x = Hamburgers

             y= Sodas

Now form a system of equation aX + bY = C

where

a= 1.75 = coefficient of variable X

b= 0.75 = coefficient of variable Y

C= 117.50

Put these values in above equation

           1.75x + 0.75y = 117.50 . . . . . (1)

Since I sold total of 120 hamburgers and sodas, we can write

            x + y = 120  . . . . . (2)

or          y = 120 - x          ....... put this value in eq.1

           1.75x + 0.75( 120 - x ) = 117.50

           1.75x + 90 - 0.75x = 117.50

            90 + x = 117.50

             x = 117.50 - 90

             x = 27     .......... put this in equation 2

     

          x + y = 120

          27 + y = 120

          y = 120 - 27

           y = 93

Suppose there are only two firms that sell Blu-ray players, Movietonia and Videotech. The following payoff Matrix shows the prof
Karolina [17]

Answer:

From the given Matrix we can see that if videotech is selecting a high price, movietonia has a higher profit when it is charging a low price and this profit is 18. Similarly when videotech is selecting a lower price movietonia again has a higher profit when it is selecting a lower price which is 10. This indicates that movie tonia has a dominant strategy of selecting a low price.

If movietonia is selecting a high price videotech has a a higher pay off of 18 when it is selecting a low price. In case movietonia is selecting a low price videotech again has a higher profit when it is selecting a low price and this profi is 10.

Therefore videotech and movietonia both have dominant strategy of selecting a low price and this implies that low price, low price will be the Nash equilibrium.

In case the two firms are not colluding, both of them will choose a low price.

This is definitely an example of business dilemma game. The statement is true.
