The company knows that it will need 20,000 barrels of jet oil oil at some time in October or November.
Heating oil futures contracts are currently traded for delivery every month on the exchange
Each contract size is 1,000 barrels.
Later, the company finds that it is ready to purchase the jet oil on October 10
Spot price (of jet fuel) and futures price (on heating oil) on Oct. 10 are $89.00 per barrel and $87.80 per barrel.
5. If no cross hedging was necessary (i.e. no asset mismatch, hence the optimal hedge ratio would be 1), assuming that there was a JET OIL FUTURES, what would have been the number of contracts to enter? And what would have been the effective price per barrel and the total effective price paid on Oct. 10?
6. If it was a perfect hedge (no timing mismatch or asset mismatch at all), what would have been the effective price per barrel and the total effective price?

Infocomp Systems Lab is a research and development (R&D) company that develops computer systems and software primarily for the medical industry. The lab has proposals from its own researchers for eight new projects. Each of the proposed research projects requires limited resources, and it is not possible to undertake all of them. The following table shows the developmental budget, the number of researchers, and the expected annual sales from each project if successfully developed and implemented:
|
Project |

The lab has developed the following set of prioritized goals for selecting which projects to initiate:
(1) The company would like to remain within a total developmental budget of $5,000,000.
(2) The number of available research personnel is 27, and Infocomp would like to avoid obtaining extra researchers.
(3) The company would like the expected future annual sales from the implemented projects to be at least $6,500,000.
(4) Projects 1, 3, 4, and 6 are considered offensive in that they represent new product initiatives, while projects 2, 5, 7, and 8 are existing product upgrades and thus defensive in nature. The lab would like to select at least two projects from each group.
(5) Projects 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 are considered the most risky of the projects, and the company would prefer not to select any more than three of these projects.
(6) The lab’s owner has indicated that she would like to see projects 5 and 6 initiated if doing so would not interfere with the achievement of any of the more important goals determined by the lab’s top management.
a. Formulate a goal programming model to determine which projects Infocomp Systems Lab should select to best achieve its goals.
No need to solve in excel. Looking for Decision variables, objective function and constraints.

1. Use two diagrams (one for Alberta, one for the world) to
explain why the following might be
true: A drought around the world raises the total revenue that
farmers received from the sale of
grain, but a drought only in Alberta reduces the total revenue that
Alberta farmers receive.
2. You have the following information about good X and good
Y:
• Income elasticity of demand for good X: -3• Cross-price
elasticity of demand for good X with respect to the price of good
Y: 2
Would an increase in income and a decrease in the price of good Y
unambiguously decrease the
demand for good X? Why or why not?
3. A price change causes the quantity demanded of a good to
decrease by 30 percent, while the
total revenue of that good increases by 15 percent. Is the demand
curve elastic or inelastic?
Explain.

Given the data shown in the table for a monopolist:
| Output | Price | Total Cost | MC | Total Revenue | Marginal Revenue | |
| 1 | 10 | 10 | ||||
| 2 | 9 | 11 | ||||
| 3 | 8 | 13 | ||||
| 4 | 7 | 16 | ||||
| 5 | 6 | 20 | ||||
| 6 | 5 | 25 |
1. Complete the table -- calculate MC, Total Revenue and MR for all output levels.
2. When the output level is 6 units:
a. Should the monopolist increase, decrease or leave output unchanged?
b. Is MR greater than, less than, or equal to MC?
3. Identify the profit maximizing P and Q.
4. What is the per-unit profit when Q = 2?
5. What is the total profit at the profit-maximizing solution?
6. Suppose barriers to entry overtime significantly decrease. Will the profit maximizing price increase, decrease or stay the same?
