Homework Answers
Solution:
From the below graph of cost function C(x)
The average cost is minimised when x=8.582(i.e. approximately 9)
Therefore,
The average cost in minimized when approximately 9 lawn mowers are produced per hour.
And the minimum average cost is approximately $ 308.95 per
mower.

Problem 8-04 (Algorithmic) Lawn King manufactures two types of riding lawn mowers. One is a low-cost mower sold primarily to residential home owners; the other is an industrial model sold to landscaping and lawn service companies. The company is interested in establishing a pricing policy for the two mowers that will maximize the gross profit for the product line. A study of the relationships between sales prices and quantities sold of the two mowers has validated the following price-quantity relationships....

Suppose the labor cost (in dollars) for manufacturing a camera can be approximated by L(x,y) = x+y2-Gox - 6x - 3y - 2xy + 182 where x is the number of hours required by a skilled craftsperson and y is the number of hours required by a semiskilled person. Find values of x and y that minimize the labor cost. Find the minimum labor cost. Labor cost will be minimized when x = - and y=0 The minimum labor cost...

Togo makes riding lawn mowers and tractors. The company’s expected quarterly demand is given below in the chart. The company will have 300 mowers in inventory at the beginning of the month and desires to maintain at least that number at the end of each month. Below is other critical data: Production cost per unit = $325 Inventory carrying cost per month per unit = $60 (based on ending month inventory) Hiring cost per worker = $450 Firing cost per...
