Comcast, Inc. (the cable tv company) is trying to determine the Lifetime Value of its customers. Here are some facts related to Comcast customers: - A study of historical sales data reveals that the average customer brings in about $2500 of sales revenues each year. - A study of historical cost data reveals that the average cost to service and retain a customer is about $700 per year. - Comcast spends about $500 to acquire a new customer, on average. - Comcast retains approximately 75% of its customers from one year to the next. - Comcast's discount rate is 7%. --

a. Calculate the Lifetime Value of a Comcast customer using the infinite time horizon version of the CLV formula.

b. How does your answer to a. change if year-to-year customer retention drops to 50% (and everything else stays the same)? c. What is the maximum amount Comcast can spend to acquire a customer and still maintain a positive Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)? (use the original assumptions above and ignore the fact that Comcast currently spends $500 to acquire a customer)

Scholastic Publishing Company received a six-chapter manuscript for a new college text-book. The editor of the college division is familiar with the manuscript and estimated a 0.65 probability that the textbook will be successful. If successful, a profit of $750,000 will be realized. If the company decides to publish the textbook and it is unsuccessful, a loss of $250,000 will occur.

Before making the decision to accept or reject the manuscript, the editor can also send the manuscript out for review (cost $5000). A review process provides either a favorable or unfavorable evaluation of the manuscript. Based on past experience the editor knows that 80% of the successful books and 50% of the unsuccessful books had received favorable evaluations.

Must be done in excel.

  1. Construct a decision tree for the above decision problem.
  2. Analyze the decision tree to determine the optimal decision strategy for the publishing company.
  3. Suppose the review is considered “perfect.” What is the most that Scholastic should pay for it?
  4. What is the most Scholastic should pay for the current (imperfect) review process?

1. Ellen Lee, human resource manager of High Fashion Clothing Company, a manufacturer of women’s clothing and accessories, had just returned from a management development seminar on work motivation. She felt that the company could immediately make use some of the theories she learnt to enhance the workers’ productivity. She was able to convince the executive committee of the company to launch a “high pay reward scheme” – giving extra bonus to those hard working staff members. After the program had been in operation for a number of months, she was puzzled to find that the results were not as she had expected. Clothing designers who belong to a group of yuppies (優皮士) did not seem to react enthusiastically to the programs. They responded by saying that they are not worrying about money, they are working for their interests. The motivation program was basically a waste of their time. Cutters, seamsters, pressers and packagers, who belong to a group of grassroot(草根階層) frontline staff reacted positively to the motivation program. Production was increased by 20 percent. (a) Use Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Theory to analyze the different needs of the two groups of staff in High Fashion Clothing Company.

(b) Hence explain why Ellen’s motivation program succeeded in one group but failed in the other group.

(c) What strategies would you recommend to Ellen to ensure high levels of motivation among the group of clothing designers?
