1. The World Health Organization (WHO) is considering sending in a team of experts to deal with an outbreak of schistosomiasis in a developing country. It costs $25,000 for every additional five team members sent. Sending a larger team will allow WHO to prevent more fatalities, and they estimate the following effectiveness:

a) (20’) Please plot the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios in a two-dimensional graph with total effectiveness along the horizontal axis and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios along the vertical axis.

b) (20’) If saving a life is valued at $10,000, what is the optimal number of team members sent?

c) (20’) Suppose the WHO has a total budget of $150,000 to be spent on fighting this epidemic. How would your answer to b) change?

2. Patient BN is a 36-year-old female with a type of organ failure that reduces her quality of life to half of what it would be in good health. Without treatment she can expect to live only two years. With a successful transplant, BN can expect to live four years and have a quality of life that is near 80% what she would enjoy in good health. However, the transplant costs $100,000, plus $10,000 each year for drugs and follow-up care, and carries a 15% risk of rejection resulting in immediate death.

a) (20’) What is the cost per additional year of life gained (without discounting for time or quality of life)?

b) (20’) What is the cost per discounted Quality-adjusted Life-year (QALY) gained (assuming a 5%-time discount rate)?

Wildhorse provides shuttle service between four hotels near a medical center and an international airport. Wildhorse uses two 10-passenger vans to offer 12 round trips per day. A recent month’s activity in the form of a cost-volume-profit income statement is shown below.

Calculate the break-even point in dollars.

Umbrella Corp uses LIFO method to report inventory. Inventory at the beginning of the year consisted of 10,000 units of the company's one product for $15 each. During the year:

60,000 units were purchased at the cost of $18 each.

64,000 units were sold.

Near the end of the fiscal year, management is considering purchasing an additional 5,000 units at $18.

What would the effect of this purchase be on income before taxes?

Would the answer be the same if the company used FIFO instead of LIFO?

Note: please provide your answer and explanations on a Word or Excel sheet as hand writing is difficult to read. I would appreciate it.

Digitel Electronics’ engineering and marketing departments have prepared forecasts for the development costs and operating profits of the next generation of their digital electrical meters. Development costs for each of the next three years will be $50,000.Manufacturing equipment costing $100,000 will be purchased near the end of Year 3. Annual profits for the normal five-year product life (Years 4 to 8 inclusive) are projected to be $80,000. The salvage value of the manufacturing equipment at the end of Year 8 is $20,000. Use NPV as your selection criteria. Should Digitel proceed with the product development if its annually compounded cost of capital is: a. 14%? b. 17%?

• Think about some of your friends and what you have discovered by visiting their homes. Do they buy different things than you do? If so, why? How might a company distinguish you from them in terms of its targeting?
• Is it always harder to find new customers than it is to retain old ones or does it depend on the business you're in?
• Does one-to-one marketing have to be expensive? How can small organizations interact with their customers in a cost-effective way?
• Are large companies better off using multi segment strategies and small companies better off using niche strategies? Why or why not?
• How have companies such as JCPenney and Sears tried to change their position (reposition their stores)?
• Do you think hotel companies have segmented the market too much and confused customers?
