SITUATION3: Under the data collected from the office of Department of Transportation and DPWH over the last 5 years indicate that for each fatality, there are 40 non-fatal injury accidents ($1500 present cost each) and 300 property damage accidents ($2000 present cost each). What is the breakeven value of statistical (VSL) needed to justify a highway project if i is 8%? The death rate on a particular three-lane road is 8 per 100 million vehicle-miles. Adding a lane would reduce this to 5 per million, and other accidents would cost $1.5M per mile to build, and annual maintenance would be 3% of the first cost. Assume that the lane would last 40 years. The road carries 10000 vehicle per day. Use reduction factor of 3/8 for all accidents. (Non-CE students no need to answer this item).

2-42 A new integrated computer system is to be installed worldwide for a major corporation. Bids on this project are being solicited, and the contract will be awarded to one of the bidders. As a part of the pro- posal for this project, bidders must specify how long the project will take. There will be a significant pen- alty for finishing late. One potential contractor de- termines that the average time to complete a project of this type is 40 weeks with a standard deviation of 5 weeks. The time required to complete this project is assumed to be normally distributed. (a) If the due date of this project is set at 40 weeks, what is the probability that the contractor will have to pay a penalty (i.e., the project will not be finished on schedule)? (b) If the due date of this project is set at 43 weeks, what is the probability that the contractor will have to pay a penalty (i.e., the project will not be finished on schedule)? (c) If the bidder wishes to set the due date in the proposal so…

Based on the results of price changes that have been instituted in the past, Tennis Products’ chief economist estimates the arc price elasticity of demand to be –2.5. Furthermore, she estimates the arc cross elasticity of demand between Model A and Model B to be approximately 0.5 and between Model A and Model C to be approximately 0.2. Variable costs…
13.12 You work for Bellevue Window Products. While performing an analysis for a new window prod- uct, you found a report from last year that pro- vided the following information regarding the manufacture of a similar product: annual produc- tion rate T 40,000 units; selling price = $70 per unit; fixed production cost = $240,000 per year; variable production cost = $1,700,000 per year; variable selling expenses = $96,000 per year. As a first-cut, you decide to use this information to estimate (a) the breakeven production rate per year, (b) the company's profit last year, and (c) the annual production rate that would generate a profit of $1,000,000 per year. What are your estimates?

Monopoly outcome versus competition outcome Consider the daily market for hot dogs in a small city. Suppose that this market is in long-run competitive equilibrium with many hot dog stands in the city, each one selling the same kind of hot dogs. Therefore, each vendor is a price taker and possesses no market power. The following graph shows the demand (D) and supply (S = MC) curves in the market for hot dogs. %3D Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the market price and quantity that will result from competition.
