(a): average flow time = 10 days
Average inventory = 1400 hotel beds
Thus, average inventory = average flow rate*average flow time
So, 1400 = average flow rate*10 days
Or average flow rate = 1400/10

(b): Average daily spending over the course of next season
= $250 + (6-1 days)*$150 per day
= 250 + (5*150)
= $1,000 per bed.
Now average daily spending in the village = $1,000 per bed*800 beds
= $800,000

Some of the larger superstores like Best Buy and Circuit City moved in and began squeezing Eddy. As it turned out his tagline, “where the prices are insane,” was quite true, and he was forced out of business. Unbeknownst to many, Eddy was an avid skier, and his desire to...
