The same grade of cemented carbide tooling is available in two forms for turning operations in the machine shop: disposable inserts and brazed inserts. Feed = 0.30 mm/rev. The Taylor equation parameters for this grade are n = 0.25 and C = 300 (m/min). For the disposable inserts, the price of each insert = $6.00, there are four cutting edges per insert, and the average tool change time = 1.0 min. Forthe brazed insert, the price of the tool = $30.00, and it can be used a total of 15 times before it must be scrapped. The tool change time forthe regrindable tooling = 3.0min. The standardtime to grind orregrind the cutting edge is 5.0min, and the cost rate to grind = $20.00/hr. Machine time on the lathe costs $24.00/hr. The work part to be used in the comparison is 375 mm long and 62.5 mm in diameter, and it takes 2.0 min to load and unload the work. For the two cases, compare the: a. cutting speedsfor minimum cost b. tool lives c. cycle times and costs per unit of production. d. Which tool would you recommend?

In return for their with optimizing his painting project, the castle servant informed poly and digit that he saw someone dressed as the king leaving behind a trail of crumbs as he walked into the jester's room late last night. poly and digit have finally found the crisp-collecting culprit — it turns out the jester's shoe size and hair color match the clues that were found! in gratitude, poly and digit agree to the servant with his current task of replacing all of the tables and chairs in the castle. his goal is to determine which furniture company should produce the new furniture. he receives information from a company that customizes elegant furniture, and he wants to analyze the company's production process in order to calculate some problems about cost and availability. read the following scenario, and assist poly and digit as they the servant with his calculations. the fit for a king furniture company requires 2020 hours of labor to produce a standard table, and a chair requires 1212 hours of labor. the labor available is 565565 hours per week. the company can produce at most 3535 chairs per week.

Suppose that two firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. as in class, the two firms are located at two ends of a line one mile apart. consumers are evenly distributed along the line. the firms have identical marginal cost, $60. firm b produces a product with value $110 to consumers. firm a (located at 0 on the unit line) produces a higher quality product with value $120 to consumers. the cost of travel are directly related to the distance a consumer travels to purchase a good. if a consumerhas to travel a mile to purchase a good, the incur a cost of $20. if they have to travel x fraction of a mile, they incur a cost of $20x. (a) write down the expressions for how much a consumer at location d would value the products sold by firms a and b, if they set prices p_{a} and p_{b} ? (b) based on your expressions in (a), how much will be demanded from each firm if prices p_{a} and p_{b} are set? (c) what are the nash equilibrium prices?
