Cool-Aire Corporation manufactures a line of room air conditioners. Its breakeven sales level is 33,000 units. Sales are approximately normally distributed. Expected sales next year are 38,000 with a standard deviation of 3000 units. (3 points)

a)      Determine the probability that Cool-Aire will incur an operating loss (Hint: Find your Z statistic first and then refer to the Z table.)

 

b)      Determine the probability that Cool-Aire will operate above its breakeven point. (Hint: The probability of operating above breakeven is one minus your answer above.)

Chapter 10

1.      Assume that a firm in a perfectly competitive industry has the following total cost schedule: (3 points)

Output Total Cost Average Cost Marginal Cost
10 110   na
15 150    
20 180    
25 225    
30 300    
35 385    
40 480    

 

a)      Calculate the average and marginal costs for the firm.

b)      At a market price of $15 per unit, how many units will be produced and sold? What is the profit per unit? What is total profit?

c)      Is the industry in long run equilibrium at this price? Why or why not?

 

2.      The Poster Bed Company believes that its industry can best be classified as monopolistically competitive. An analysis of the demand for its canopy bed has resulted in the following estimated  demand function (P), inverse demand function (Q), total revenue function (TR), and marginal revenue function (MR): (6 points)

P = 910 – 6Q   è  Q = 151.67 – .167P

TR = 910Q -6Q2

MR = 910 – 12Q

The cost analysis department has estimated the total cost function (TC) and the marginal cost function (MC) for the poster bed as:

TC = 30Q2 + 10Q + 2000

MC = 60Q + 10

 

a)      Calculate the level of output that should be produced to maximize short run profits.

(Hint: Set MR = MC and solve for Q) (2 points)

b)      What price should be charged? (1 point)

c)      Compute total profit at this price – output combination. (1 point)

d)      Compute the point price elasticity of demand at the profit-maximizing level of output.   (2 points)

 MIS500-Assign2 Page 1 of 3 ASSESSMENT BRIEF Subject Code and Name MIS500 Foundations of Information Systems Assessment Assessment Two – Solution Plan Individual/Group Individual Length 2000 words Learning Outcomes This assessment addresses the following subject learning outcomes: b) Synthesise requirements and recommend a number of tested and verifiable solutions to address limitations to contemporary business problems c) Devise and communicate a strategy which embodies the principles of agile methodology, to address complex business needs across an organisation, while meeting objectives and applications of information technology. Submission By 11:59 PM AEST/AEDT Friday of Module 4.1 (week 7) Weighting 40% Total Marks 40 marks Context: The assessment suite in this subject is built on top of skills you are building in your learning activities. Although the learning activities do not carry any assessable weight by themselves, completing them and seeking input from your peers and the learning facilitator is essential for you to achieving a positive result in the subject. Before beginning this assessment, be sure that you have completed the learning activities in the modules one, two and three. Instructions: Read the feedback from the learning facilitator on your first assessment carefully. Fix any holes in your analysis and build a cache of external references if you fell short of the referencing requirement. With your (enhanced) first assessment as a starting point, use the identification of activities, sub-activities and linkages between them to formulate a solution plan for Latureae. Using the principles of agile, present a recommended systems blueprint to the Latureae management. If you make recommendations on specific systems, you should refer to external sources on how these have led other firms to significant efficiency improvements in the past. The solution plan should be appropriately justified and illustrate to management what the expected gains of implementing your solution would ideally be.  MIS500-Assign2 Page 2 of 3 There is no required format for the assessment. Students should use initiative and be sure to conform to the APA referencing style, making use of external sources as appropriate. Be sure to bookend your assignment with an introduction and conclusion as well as a list of references that make considerable use of the Torrens University library and databases. Submission Instructions: You are expected to begin this assessment when you begin the trimester, especially as you relate the learning activities (formative assessment) to this and the other (summative) assessments. Be sure to keep several drafts of your work as well as your notes and any sources you used to draw on in preparing it. Extensions will be considered only in extenuating circumstances where the student has applied before the due date. At that point, students are required to provide the latest draft, in case the extension is not granted. Students are responsible for keeping appropriate back-ups and drafts of their assignments and to submit the correct version. Torrens University Australia policies apply to the preparation and submission of this assignment.  MIS500-Assign2 Page 3 of 3 Learning Rubric: Assessment Two Assessment Criteria Fail (Unacceptable) 0-49% Pass (Functional) 50-64% Credit (Proficient) 65-74% Distinction (Advanced) 75 -84% High Distinction (Exceptional) 85-100% Solution Plan Presented to Management 30% The focus for this criterion cannot be seen in the assignment.
