During the Inept Management Day festivities, the citizens of X country elect through online polls the most clueless, psychologically unstable, incompetent, and damaging leader, and then hang the pictures of that leader on their balcony clotheslines. Company Y sells copies of the picture and needs to order them from a print shop. The cost per picture copy bought from print shop is 71.50 local currency units (LCU), and during the festivities they are sold for 119.50 LCU per copy. It is expected that any stock of the pictures remaining unsold after the festivities can be given for recycling to a toilet paper manufacturer at the sale price of 59.50 LCU per copy. Assume that a uniform probability distribution ranging from 6830 to 7680 copies describes the demand, with average expected demand of 7255. What is the optimal order size of picture copies for the Inept Management Day under these conditions?

The Marketing Manager of Dotcom Limited has conducted a market research on the price-demand relationship for its consumer durable Product-V which has been recently launched. The price-demand pattern will be as follows: Price per unit (Rs.) 16.650 16.050 14.400 13.050 Product-V is manufactured in batches of 1.000 units. The production manager of Dotcom Limited has also researched and studies the pattern and believes that 50% of the variable manufacturing cost would have a learning effect. This learning curve effect will continue up to 4.000 units of production at constant rate But after 4.000 units of production unit variable manufacturing cost would be equal to the unit cost at the 4 batch. The manufacturing unit cost of the first batch will be Rs. 6.600 of which only 50% is subjected to learning and experience curve effect. The average unit variable of all 4 batches will be Rs 6.180 The price and maximum contribution at which Dotcom Limited should sell Product-V is: Rs.14,400, Rs.…
