Consider again the case of One Hour Loan. Recall that activity 1 takes 4 minutes/loan, activity 2 takes 5 minutes/loan, activity 3 takes 7 minutes/loan, activity 4 takes 2 minutes/loan, and activity 5 takes 4 minutes/loan. Recall further that currently the assignment of tasks to workers is as follows: W1 does activity 1, W2 does activities 2 and 3, and W3 does activities 4 and 5. How would you rebalance the process to maximize process capacity, assuming that the five activities have to be carried out in the given order

Two products, qi and vh, emerge from a joint process. product qi has been allocated $34,300 of the total joint costs of $55,000. a total of 2,900 units of product qi are produced from the joint process. product qi can be sold at the split-off point for $11 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $10,900 and then sold for $13 per unit. if product qi is processed further and sold, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point?

The market demand curve for a popular teen magazine is given by q = 80 - 10p where p is the magazine price in dollars per issue and q is the weekly magazine circulation in units of 10,000. if the circulation is 400,000 per week at the current price, what is the consumer surplus for a teen reader with maximum willingness to pay of $3 per issue?
