It costs $8000 to run the day shift and $4500 to run the night shift. Demand for the next two days is as follows: day 1, 2000; night 1, 3000; day 2, 2000; night 2, 3000. It costs $1 per unit to hold a unit in inventory for a shift. a. Determine a production schedule that minimizes the sum of setup and inventory costs. All demand must be met on time.

There are two movie theaters in the town of Harkinsville: Modern Multiplex (Firm 1) and Galaxy (Firm 2). The demands for each firm are: Q1 = 125 – 3.5P1 + 2P2 and Q2 = 125 – 3.5P2 + 2P1, where quantities are measured in hundreds of moviegoers. Costs per customer are: $4 for Firm 1 and $3 for Firm 2. Instructions: Use no decimals. Use the average cost to calculate monopoly profits. Do not round if values are used to complete other calculations. Use commas (30,000 instead of 30000) Complete the following table. P1 P2 Q1 Q2 Profits F1 Profits F2 Firm 1 colludes, Firm 2 cheats w/ QDC 2,824 Firm 1 colludes, Firm 2 cheats w/ QBRF 1,441
