Answer:
A
Explanation:
Optimization using total value calculates the total value of each feasible option and then picks the option with the highest total value.
Optimization using marginal analysis calculates the change in total value when a person switches from one feasible option to another, and the uses these marginal comparisons to choose the option with the highest total value.
Both gives identical answers.
Optimization can be implemented using many different techniques.
One of it, is Total value total benefit - total cost (net benefit).
It translate all cost and benefits into common units, like dollar per month.
Calculate the total net benefit of each alternative.
Pick the alternative with the highest net benefit.
From what I understood in the problem, the total budget that covers all types of media is only $1,000 per month. For the allocation, each type of media would get at least 25% of the budget. If we infer on this information, there should only be 4 types of media, at least. This is because four 25% portions would equal to 100%. If it exceeds 25% for each of the four types, it would be over the $1000 budget. With that being said, it is also possible that there will be 3 or 2 types of media. Nevertheless, let's just stick to the least assumption of 25% for each of the 4 types.
If local newspaper advertising is one of the four types, then:
$1000(25%) = $250
It would get $250 from the overall budget.
Answer:
Cappuccino machines should be produced in Atlanta and coffee makers in Fort Worth. The Fort Worth facility would need to operate 100 hours per week and the Atlanta facility would need to operate 140 hours per week.
Total costs associated to operating the facilities = ($2,400 x 100) + ($600 x 140) = $324,000
Explanation:
Since there is not constraint regarding the total number of labor hours that each plant can operate, then we must choose the plant that operates at the lower cost. The only restriction is total time = 7 days x 24 hours = 168 hours per week:
production costs Atlanta:
coffee maker = $600 / 160 = $3.75 per unit
cappuccino machine = $600 / 200 = $3 per unit
production costs Fort Worth:
coffee maker = $2,400 / 800 = $3 per unit
cappuccino machine = $2,400 / 200 = $6 per unit
Cappuccino machines should be produced in Atlanta and coffee makers in Fort Worth. The Fort Worth facility would need to operate 100 hours per week and the Atlanta facility would need to operate 140 hours per week.
Answer:
D) foreign; domestic
Explanation:
The central Bank can improve the domestic currency by using the reserves. If the domestic currency undervalued the central bank may intervene to sell the Foreign currency and purchase the domestic currency, which will increase the demand of domestic currency and increase the supply of foreign currency in the market which will improve the value of domestic currency and undervalue the foreign currency.
