Gulf Coast Electronics is ready to award contracts to suppliers for providing reservoir capacitors for use in its electronic devices. For the past several years, Gulf Coast Electronics has relied on two suppliers for its reservoir capacitors: Able Controls and Lyshenko Industries. A new firm, Boston Components, has inquired into the possibility of providing a portion of the reservoir capacitors needed by Gulf Coast. The quality of products provided by Lyshenko Industries has been extremely high; in fact, only 0.5% of the capacitors provided by Lyshenko had to be discarded because of quality problems. Able Controls has also had a high quality level historically, producing an average of only 1% unacceptable capacitors. Because Gulf Coast Electronics has had no experience with Boston Components, it estimated Boston Components’ defective rate to be 10%. Gulf Coast would like to determine how many reservoir capacitors should be ordered from each firm to obtain 75,000 acceptable-quality capacitors to use in its electronic devices. To ensure that Boston Components will receive some of the contract, management specified that the volume of reservoir capacitors awarded to Boston Components must be at least 10% of the volume given to Able Controls. In addition, the total volume assigned to Boston Components, Able Controls, and Lyshenko Industries should not exceed 30,000, 50,000, and 50,000 capacitors, respectively. Because of Gulf Coast’s long-term relationship with Lyshenko Industries, management also specified that at least 30,000 capacitors should be ordered from Lyshenko. The cost per capacitor is $2.45 for Boston Components, $2.50 for Able Controls, and $2.75 for Lyshenko Industries.

1. Many companies use a incoming shipments of parts, raw materials, and so on. In the electronics industry, component parts are commonly shipped from suppliers in large lots. Inspection of a sample of n components can be viewed as the n trials of a binomial experimem. The outcome for each component tested (trialD will be that the component is classified as good or defective defective components in the lot do not exceed 1 %. Suppose a random sample of fiver...
Part II: Dana Boar, controller of Digital Electronics Canada, developed the figures requested by her boss and president of Digital Electronics Canada, Hans Fritz. The numbers allowed her to see how the projected sales volume for 2017 related to breakeven, and examine the relative profitability of the two products, DELTA1 and DELTA2. Boar thought the figures were OK as far has her analysis went, but she began to wonder about some of the assumptions built into her calculations. For example,...

Case 27 To Use or Not to Use?
Beaufort Sea Production Company (BSPC) operates a medium-sized oil
field on Alaska’s north coast. The field is still producing at its
maximum rate, 325,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD). However, to
sustain this rate the company started a waterflood of the reservoir
two years ago. Now a capacity bottleneck in the water disposal
process is threatening to curtail production. In waterflooding,
salt water from the Beaufort Sea is treated to remove...
