You are considering adding a new food product to your store for resale. You are certain that, in a month, minimum demand for the

product will be 5 units, while maximum demand will be 8 units. (Unfortunately, the new product has a one-month shelf life and is considered to be waste at the end of the month.) You will pay $70/unit for this new product while you plan to sell the product at $100 ($30/unit profit). The estimated demand for this new product in any given month is 5 units (p=0.2), 6 units (p=0.2), 7 units (p=0.4), and 8 units (p=0.2).

Answer:

Using EMV analysis, the number of units of the new product should be purchased for resale = Purchase 7.

The maximum EMV of profit you can make is 270.

Explanation:

We can use the following method to solve the given problem

Solution:

Using EMV analysis,

EMV (Purchase 6 for resale)= 6(40)(0.1) + 6(40)(0.4) + 6(40)(0.5)=240

EMV (Purchase 7 for resale) = [6(40)-60](0.1) +7(40)(0.4) + 7 (40)(0.5) = 270

EMV (Purchase 8 for resale) = [6(40)-2(60)] (0.1) + [7 (40) - 60] (0.4) + 8(40)(0.5)= 260

Largest EMV= 270; Choose to purchase 7 units for resale.

"Born and raised in India, Rashmi has always enjoyed Indian cooking. As a matter of fact, cooking was her passion and she always
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Modify.

Explanation:

The SCAMPER approach is useful when analyzing how to implement new ideas into existing products or services. SCAMPER stands for <em>Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to another use, Eliminate, </em>and <em>Reverse</em>.

The Modifying function implies asking questions such as "<em>What could you add to modify this product</em>?" or "<em>What element of this product could you strengthen to create something new</em>?" which looks for spotting lacking features of products to improve them according to consumers' preference.

Thus, <em>by deciding to change the spices of Indian traditional food for less spicy ingredients to fit Americans' food habits, Rashmi is using the modifying component of the SCAMPER tool.</em>
