Answers only Please don’t make it confusing Please be clear Please write or type neatly The management of Madeira Manufacturing Company is considering the Introduction of a new product. The fixed cost to begin the production of the product is $28,000. The pected to be between $21 and $32 with a most likely value of $27 per unit. The product will sell for $45 per unit. Demand for the product is expected to range from 300 to 1800 units, with 1200 units the most likely demand Let c-variable cost per unit. x demand a. Develop the profit model for this product. Enter your answer in the form of an expression. (Example:(+10)x800) Profit a b. Provide the base-case, worst-case and bst-case analyses. For those boxes in which you must enter subtractive or negative numbers use a minus Base case: Profit Worst case: Profit Best case: Profit c. Discuss why simulation would be desirable. A simulation the probability of each scenario

Explanation / Answer

(a)

Let c = variable cost per unit

x = Demand

Profit = 45x - cx -28000

= (45-c)x - 28000

(b)

Base case :

Profit = (45-27)1200 -28000

= -6400

Worst Case:

Profit = (45-32)×300- 28000

= -24100

Best case :

Profit = (45-21)×1800 -28000= 15200

(c)

The possibility of $15200 profit is interesting , but the worst case loss of 24100 is Risky. Risk analysis would be helpful in evaluating the probability of a loss.
