Within a company is a (micro)economy that is monitored by the accounting procedures. In terms of the accounts, the various departments "produce" costs, some of which are internal
and some of which are direct costs. This problem shows how an open Leontief model can be used to determine departmental costs.
The sales department of an auto dealership charges 10% of its total monthly costs to the service department, and the service department charges 20% of its total monthly costs to the
sales department. During a given month, the direct costs are $88,200 for sales and $49,000 for service. Find the total costs (in dollars) of each department. (Round your answers to the
nearest whole number.)

Suppose the development department of a firm charges 10% of its total monthly costs to the promotional department, and
the promotional department charges 5% of its total monthly costs to the development department. The direct costs of the
development department are $18,500, and the direct costs of the promotional department are $8,100. The solution to the

- Dave Fletcher, the general manager of North Carolina Engineering Corporation (NCEC), thinks that his firm’s engineer-ing services contracted to highway construction firms are directly related to the volume of highway construction business contractedwith companies in his geographic area. He wonders if this is reallyso, and if it is, can this information help him plan his operationsbetter by forecasting the quantity of his engineering servicesrequired by construction firms in each quarter of the year? Thefollowing table presents the sales of his services and total amountsof contracts for highway construction over the past eight quarters: a) Using this data, develop a regression equation for predictingthe level of demand of NCEC’s services. b) Determine the coefficient of correlation and the standard errorof the estimate.arrow_forwardHappy Pet, Inc., is a large pet store located in Long Beach Mall. Although the store specializes in dogs, it also sells fish, turtle, and bird supplies. The Everlast Leader, a leather lead for dogs, costs Happy Pet $11 each. There is an annual demand for 4,000 Everlast Leaders. The manager, Stephan Wagner, has determined that the ordering cost is $40 per order and the carrying cost, as a percentage of unit cost, is 11%. Happy Pet is now considering a new supplier of Everlast Leaders. Each lead would cost only $10.45, but, in order to get this discount, Happy Pet would have to buy shipments of 3,000 at a time. Should Happy Pet use the new supplier and take this discount for quantity buying? The total cost without the discount is $ (round your response to the nearest whole number) The total cost with the discount is s (round your response to the nearest whole number). Should Happy Pet use the new supplier and take this discount for quantity buying?

The firm has 900 hours of production time available in its cutting and sewing department, 300 hours available in its finishing department, and 100 hours available in its packaging and shipping department. The production time requirements and the profit contribution per glove are given in the following table Production Time Model Cutting and Sewing Finishing Packaging and Shipping Profit / Glove Regular Model 1 1/2 1/8 $5 Catcher Model 3/2 1/3 1/4 $8 Assuming that the company is interested in maximizing the total profit contribution, answer the following: What is the linear programming model for this problem? Find the optimal solution using the graphical solution procedure. How many gloves of each model should Kelson Manufacture? What is the total profit contribution Kelson can earn with…arrow_forward
