Demand for stereo headphones and MP3 players for joggers has caused Nina Industries to grow almost 50 percent over the past year. The number of joggers continues to expand, so Nina expects demand for headsets to also expand, because, as yet, no safety laws have been passed to prevent joggers from wearing them. Demand for the players for last year was as follows:   MONTH DEMAND (UNITS) January 4,240 February 4,340 March 4,040 April 4,440 May 5,040 June 4,740 July 5,340 August 4,940 September 5,440 October 5,740 November 6,335 December 6,030     a. Using linear regression analysis, what would you estimate demand to be for each month next year? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)     b. To be reasonably confident of meeting demand, Nina decides to use 4 standard errors of estimate for safety. How many additional units should be held to meet this level of confidence? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round…

It is thought that it will not be possible to order new magnets during the fair period, and magnets that are not sold during the fair period will not be sold later. A box of magnets costs the business $100 and generates $460 from its sale. The table includes predictions about demand probabilities. a-) What is the overstocking cost of the business in dollars/box? b-) How many dollars/box is the missing stocking cost?

Your market research indicates that they want a burger that is loaded with everything as long as it meets certain health requirements. Money is no object to them. The ingredient list in the table shows what is available to include on the burger. You must include at least one of each item and no more than five of each item. You must use whole items (for example, no half servings of cheese). The final burger must contain less than 3000 mg of sodium, less than 150 grams of fat, and less than 3000 calories. To maintain certain taste quality standards you'll need to keep the servings of ketchup and lettuce the same. Also, you'll need to keep the servings of…
