You are creating a model for a manufacturing company with four major plants and ten warehouses. They want to reduce costs by determining the optimal number and location of the plants and warehouses. During the initial set of meetings, one of the team members is very concerned about modeling the “samples” that the firm sends out. As part of the marketing of the product, the firm sends out quite a bit of sample product. This product is pulled from the plants or warehouses and shipped to customers via small-parcel. It accounts for about 10% of the demand records (and about 0.5% of the demand volume) and about 3% of the logistics costs. Should you include this part of the business in the model?

Tables 1 and 2 show the quantities of the goods that Suzie bought and the prices she paid during two consecutive weeks. Suzie’s CPI market basket contains the goods she bought in Week 1. Calculate the cost of Suzie’s CPI market basket in Week 1 and in Week 2. What percentage of the CPI market basket is gasoline? Calculate the value of Suzie’s CPI in Week 2 and her inflation rate in Week 2.

Use the following information to work Problems 4 and 5.

The GDP price index in the United States in 2000 was about 90, and real GDP in 2000 was $11 trillion (2005 dollars). The GDP price index in 2010 was about 111, and real GDP in 2010 was $13.1 trillion (2005 dollars).

Calculate nominal GDP in 2000 and in 2010 and the percentage increase in nominal GDP between 2000 and 2010.What was the percentage increase in production between 2000 and 2010, and by what percentage did the cost of living rise between 2000 and 2010?

wo men, A and B, who usually commute to work together decide to conduct an experiment to see whether one route is faster than the other. The men feel that their driving habits are approximately the same, so each morning for two weeks one driver is assigned to route I and the other to route II. The times, recorded to the nearest minute, are shown in the following table. Using this data, find the 98%98%confidence interval for the true mean difference between the average travel time for route I and the average travel time for route II.

Let d=(route I travel time)−(route II travel time)d=(route I travel time)−(route II travel time). Assume that the populations of travel times are normally distributed for both routes.

Step 1 of 4: Find the mean of the paired differences, d‾‾. Round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 2 of 4: Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Step 3 of 4: Find the standard deviation of the paired differences to be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to one decimal place.

Step 4 of 4: Construct the 98% confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

After rigorous field survey, the insurance company finds that the probability to have cancer is 10% on average. The company offers a fixed rate policy where the premium is $1,000. Reimbursement is $9,000, which is the amount of medical expense you must pay if you get cancer. Suppose there are two types of customers: heavy smoker, who has a probability of 15% of getting cancer. Nonsmoker, who has a probability of 5% of getting cancer.

A) Assuming utility function is ?? = ?? , where x is the amount of money. Calculate utilities for both heavy smoker and nonsmoker. Who will be buying the insurance?

B) What is the expected profit for the insurance company?

On July 1, $12,000 rent on building is paid for the months of July, August, and September. Merchandize inventory $40,000 is purchased on account. The company uses perpetual inventory system. On July 1, $20,000 is borrowed from a local bank, and a note payable is signed. Credit sales for the month are $62,000, The cost of merchandize sold is $38,000. $2,000 is paid on account for office supplies. $55,000 is collected from customers on account. $10,000 is paid to employees for wages in July. A bill of $3,000 is received from utility company for the month of July. A customer paid $9,000 for merchandize to be delivered in August and September.

A company that manufactures pavers used in residential landscaping. The company guarantees that the paver average weight is no more than 10kg. However, recently the company has received many complaints that the pavers are heavier than expected. In an effort to address the customers complaints, the quality control manager selected a random sample of 40 pavers. The average and standard deviation obtained from this sample are 10.3kg and 3.1 kg, respectively. At α = 0.10, can it be concluded the pavers average weight is higher than 10kg? Use the critical value/rejection point method.

Twenty-five volunteer athletes participated in a study of cross-disciplinary athletic abilities. The group comprised athletes from football, baseball, water polo, volleyball, and soccer. None had ever played organized basketball, but did acknowledge interest and some social participation in the game. Height (inches), weight (pounds), and speed in the 100-yard dash (seconds) were recorded for each subject. The basketball test consisted of the number of field goals that could be made in a 60-min. period. The data are given in Athlete.jmp on Blackboard. We are interested in predicting GOALMADE using some combination of WEIGHT, HEIGHT, DASH100.

3) Using JMP output from above, do any of the input variables (HEIGHT, WEIGHT, DASH100) exhibit collinearity?

4) Now, we want to determine if the variables WEIGHT and/or HEIGHT should be added to the model that already contains DASH100 to explain GOALMADE. Write the full and reduced models; then perform the appropriate test. (Please show your expanded ANOVA table, but you do not need to state your hypotheses explicitly.)

5) Finally (without running any more JMP output), determine if the variable DASH100 is useful in explaining GOALMADE when HEIGHT and WEIGHT are already in the model. State the test-statistic, p-value, and conclusion only
