The Ambrosia Bakery makes cakes for freezing and subsequent sale. The bakery, which operates 6 days a week, 50 weeks a year, can produce cakes at the rate of 100 cakes per day. The bakery sets up the cake-production operation and produces until a predetermined number (Q) have been produced. When not producing cakes, the bakery uses its personnel and facilities for producing other bakery items. The setup cost for a production run of cakes is $600. The cost of holding frozen cakes in storage is $10 per cake per year. The annual demand for frozen cakes, which is constant over time, is 6000 cakes. Determine the following:

  1. Optimal production run quantity (Q)

  2. Total annual inventory costs

  3. Optimal number of production runs per year

  4. Optimal cycle time (time between run starts)

  5. Run length in working days

Detailed interviews were conducted with over 1,000 street vendors in the city of Puebla, Mexico, in order to study the factors influencing vendors’ incomes. Vendors were defined as individuals working in the street and included vendors with carts and stands on wheels and excluded beggars, drug dealers, and prostitutes. The researchers collected data on gender, age, hours worked per day, annual earnings, and education level. These data are saved in STREETVEN file. Consider an interaction model ? = ?0 + ?1?1 + ?2?2 + ?3?1?2 + ? for the vendor’s mean annual earning ?(?). ?ℎ??? ? = ?????? ????????,?1 = ??? ??? ?2 = ℎ???? ?????? ??? ???.

a. Use statistical software R to fit the interaction model and provide the summary of the model. Also write least squares prediction equation. b. What is the estimated slope relating annual earnings (y) to age (x1) when number of hours worked (x2) is 10? Interpret the result. c. What is the estimated slope relating annual earnings (y) to hours worked (x2) when age (x1) is 40? Interpret the result. d. Conduct a hypothesis test to decide whether age (x1) and hours worked (x2) interact. Write your conclusion.

  1. Jon, Sara, Rohit, and Maria currently earn $100k, $120k, $40, and $20. Assume utility function is U(y)=(y)^(0.5).   Consider a utilitarian social planner deciding on whether to enact the following policy: tax 10% for all earnings above $50k, and transfer it as a lump sum to all earning below $50. Assume further that 30% of the potential revenue based on current earnings is “lost” (leaky bucket) due to reduced work incentives.

Hanson Inn is a 96-room hotel located near the airport and convention center in Louisville, Kentucky. When a convention or a special event is in town, Hanson increases its normal room rates and takes reservations based on a revenue management system. The Classic Corvette Owners Association scheduled its annual convention in Louisville for the first weekend in June. Hanson Inn agreed to make at least 50% of its rooms available for convention attendees at a special convention rate in order to be listed as a recommended hotel for the convention. Although the majority of attendees at the annual meeting typically request a Friday and Saturday two-night package, some attendees may select a Friday night only or a Saturday night only reservation. Customers not attending the convention may also request a Friday and Saturday two-night package, or make a Friday night only or Saturday night only reservation. Thus, six types of reservations are possible: convention customers/two-night package; convention customers/Friday night only; convention customers/Saturday night only; regular customers/two-night package; regular customers/Friday night only; and regular customers/Saturday night only.

The cost for each type of reservation is shown here:

Two-Night
Package
Friday Night
Only
Saturday Night
Only
Convention $225 $123 $130
Regular $295 $146 $152

The anticipated demand for each type of reservation is as follows:

Two-Night
Package
Friday Night
Only
Saturday Night
Only
Convention 40 20 15
Regular 20 30 25

Hanson Inn would like to determine how many rooms to make available for each type of reservation in order to maximize total revenue.

  1. Define the decision variables and state the objective function. Round your answers to the nearest whole number.
    Let CT = number of convention two-night rooms
    CF = number of convention Friday only rooms
    CS = number of convention Saturday only rooms
    RT = number of regular two-night rooms
    RF = number of regular Friday only rooms
    RS = number of regular Saturday only room
    CT + CF + CS + RT + RF + RS
  2. Formulate a linear programming model for this revenue management application. Round your answers to the nearest whole number. If the constant is "1" it must be entered in the box.

  4. Suppose that one week before the convention the number of regular customers/Saturday night only rooms that were made available sell out. If another nonconvention customer calls and requests a Saturday night only room, what is the value of accepting this additional reservation? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

    The dual value for constraint 10 shows an added profit of $   if this additional reservation is accepted.

New Balance, a major athletic-wear company, is dissatisfied with the number of employee days lost due to sickness. Per employee, the mean number of days lost per year is 21, and the standard deviation is 5. In order to try to reduce this loss, the board of directors appoint an occupational psychologist to make recommendations for changes in corporate policy. The psychologist suggests that providing free fitness classes at lunchtimes could help. The directors agree to try providing these classes at one corporate location. After one year, the number of days lost for each employee at the corporate location is as follows: 25, 26, 16, 15, 26, 14, 23, 4, 17, 21, 22, 5, 14, 20, 10, 18 a) Represent the null and alternative hypotheses in symbol form b) Identify the rejection region using  = 0.05 for a two-tailed test. Draw a rough graph showing the critical region. c) What conclusions can be drawn from this study about the effect of providing free fitness classes on the number of employee days lost due to sickness? Be sure to state your conclusions in plain English.
