- Problem 03 Complying with all, government housing regulations and requirements, the employees union of a certain firm has the option to purchase either of two sites, each having an area of 18 hectares (180,000 sq.m.) of undeveloped land. The first singly owned, would cost Php20.00 a sq.m, but would needa roadway system, including the access road, 4,000 meters long, at a cost of Php 110.00 per meter. Additional development expenses would be Php 60,000 to subdivide and grade into 320 house löts, and another Php 32,000 for a hollow block fence and security gates. The second site consists of three lots, separately owned, with a total area of 18 hectares: 7 hectares at Php 25.00 a sq.m. 5 hectares at Php 21.00 a sq.m and 6 hectares at Php 14.00 a sq.m. The road system for this would be only 3,200 meters long at Php 100.00 per meter, but needs two box culverts each costing Php 25.000.00. Lot grading would be Php 35,000; fencing and security 8atës Phip 24,000. Assuming that all…6.

In order to produce the new line, the bakery is considering either a major or minor renovation of the current plant. Bakery Products has the option of not developing the new line at all. The decision alternatives are shown in the payoff table below as well as the states of nature and probabilities. Payoffs are profits; Before making the final decision, Bakery Products can pay a market research firm $500.00 to survey consumer attitudes towards the company's products. The results can be either “vibrant” or “limp”. The reliability of the company, based on past performance, is given below. That is: P(V|F) = 0.80;P(V|N) = 0.60;P(V|U) = 0.30; P(L|F) = 0.20;P(L|N) = 0.40;P(L|U) = 0.70; a) Computed the revised probabilities round to two decimal places. b) After you have computed the revised probabilities round to two decimal places, construct the appropriate decision tree…2) A company is considering a plan to produce or buy/outsource a certain item used in the production of new type of cars.

Given these numbers, should the firm buy or make this item? b. There is a possibility that volume could change in the future. At what volume would the company be indifferent between making and buying?
- During a major expansion in 2004, Douwalla’s Import Company developed a new processing line for which the delivered equipment cost was $1.75 million. This year, the board of directors decided to expand into new markets and expects to build the current version of the same line. Estimate the cost if the following factors are applicable: construction cost factor is 0.20, installation cost factor is 0.50, indirect cost factor applied against equipment is 0.25, and the total plant cost index has risen from 2509 to 3713 over the years.James Lawson's Bed and Breakfast, in a small historicMississippi town, must decide how to subdivide (remodel) the largeold home that will become its inn . There are three alternatives:Option A would modernize all baths and combine rooms, leavingthe inn with four suites, each suitable for two to four adults.Option B would modernize only the second floor; the results wouldbe six suites, four for two to four adults, two for two adults only.Option C (the status quo option) leaves all walls intact. In this case,there are eight rooms available, but only two are suitable for fouradults, and four rooms will not have private baths. The details ofprofit and demand patterns that will accompany each option are: Which option has the highest expected monetary value?1. A builder has located a piece of property that she would like to buy and eventually build on. The land is currently zoned for four homes per acre, but she is planning to request new zoning. What she builds depends on approval of zoning requests and your analysis of this problem to advise her. With her input and your help, the decision process has been reduced to the following costs, alternatives, and probabilities: Cost of land: $2 million. Probability of rezoning: 0.60. If the land is rezoned, there will be additional costs for new roads, lighting, and so on of $1 million. If the land is rezoned, the contractor must decide whether to build a shopping center or 1,500 apartments that the tentative plan shows would be possible. If she builds a shopping center, there is a 70 percent chance that she can sell the shopping center to a large department store chain for $4 million over her construction cost, which excludes the land; and there is a 30 percent chance that she can sell it to an…
