A bakery has determined that the number of loaves of its white bread demanded daily has a normal distribution with mean 7,200 loaves and standard deviation 300 loaves. Based on cost considerations, the company has decided that its best strategy is to produce a sufficient number of loaves so that it will fully supply demand on 94% of all days. a. How many loaves of bread should the company produce? b. Based on the production in part (a), on what percentage of days will the company be left with more than 500 loaves of unsold bread?

St. John's Brewery (SJB) is getting ready for a busy tourist season. SJB wants to either increase production or produce the same amount as last year, depending on the demand level for the coming season. SJB estimates the probabilities for high, medium and low demands as 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 respectively, on the basis of the number of tourists forecasted by the local recreational bureau. If SJB increases production, the expected profits corresponding to high, medium and low demands are $750,000, $325,000 and $100,000 respectively. If SJB does not increase production, the expected profits are $450,000, $325,000 and $150,000 respectively. (NOTE: Text answers are case sensitive and the value of different parts of this question is indicated in square brackets [*/*]) Construct a decision tree for SJB. On the basis of the EV, what should SJB do? What is the expected value of increasing production? What is the expected value of not increasing production? Should SJB increase production (enter…
