he Roosevelt Company presently makes 27,000 units of a certain component each year for use on its production line.  The cost per unit for the component at this level of activity is as follows

Direct materials.................................$4.20

Direct Labor.....................................$12.00

Variable factory overhead................. $5.80

Fixed factory overhead......................$6.50

Roosevelt has received an offer from an outside supplier who is willing to provide 27,000 units of this component at a price of $25 per component.  Assume that if the component is purchased from the outside supplier, $35,100 of annual fixed factory overhead could be avoided and the facilities now being used to make the component could be rented to another company for $64,800 per year. If Roosevelt chooses to buy the component from the outside supplier under these circumstances, how much would annual net income increase or decrease by?

5. (4pts) If the unit price (cost) of gruel 2, gruel 3, and gruel 5 increase by $0.5, respectively, and that of gruel 4 decreases by $0.5, do you want to change the current dog food mix? Will the minimum cost for the dog food change? If so, by how much? Show your calculations.

6. (3pts) Would you be interested in buying gruel 6 that sells for $4 per 16 oz, which contains 3 oz of protein, 6 oz of carbohydrate, and 7 oz of fat? Show your calculations.

7. (4pts) If the dog food buyer requests to increase the protein level by 0.6 oz in exchange for reducing the fat level by 0.7 oz, would you take this offer? Explain and show your calculation.

A group of 51 college students from a certain liberal arts college were randomly sampled and asked about the number of alcoholic drinks they have in a typical week. The purpose of this study was to compare the drinking habits of the students at the college to the drinking habits of college students in general. In particular, the dean of students, who initiated this study, would like to check whether the mean number of alcoholic drinks that students at his college in a typical week differs from the mean of U.S. college students in general, which is estimated to be 4.73.

The group of 51 students in the study reported an average of 4.35 drinks per with a standard deviation of 3.88 drinks.

Find the p-value for the hypothesis test.  

The p-value should be rounded to 4-decimal places.
