Problem 12-02 (Algorithmic)
The management of Madeira Manufacturing Company is considering the introduction of a new product. The fixed cost to begin the production of the product is $31,000. The variable cost for the product is expected to be between $20 and $26 with a most likely value of $24 per unit. The product will sell for $50 per unit. Demand for the product is expected to range from 500 to 1600 units, with 1300 units the most likely demand.
Let c = variable cost per unit x = demand - Develop the profit model for this product. Enter your answer in
the form of an expression. (Example:
(c+10)⋅x+800)
Profit = - Provide the base-case, worst-case and best-case analyses. For
those boxes in which you must enter subtractive or negative numbers
use a minus sign. (Example: -300)
Base case: Profit = $ Worst case: Profit = $ Best case: Profit = $ - Discuss why simulation would be desirable.
A simulation the probability of each scenario.
- Develop the profit model for this product. Enter your answer in
the form of an expression. (Example:
(c+10)⋅x+800)

Problem 12-14 (Algorithmic) The management of Madeira Manufacturing Company is considering the introduction of a new product. The fixed cost to begin the production of the product is $38,000. The variable cost for the product is uniformly distributed between $18 and $24 per unit. The product will sell for $58 per unit. Demand for the product is best described by a normal probability distribution with a mean of 1,100 units and a standard deviation of 300 units. Develop an Excel...
