(All answers were generated using 1,000 trials and native Excel functionality.) The management of Brinkley Corporation is interested in using simulation to estimate the profit per unit for a new product. The selling price for the product will be $45 per unit. Probability distributions for the purchase cost, the labor cost, and the transportation cost are estimated as follows: Procurement Cost ($) Probability Labor Cost ($) Probability Transportation Cost ($) Probability 10 0.25 20 0.10 3 0.75 11 0.45 22...

(All answers were generated using 1,000 trials and native Excel functionality.) Statewide Auto Insurance believes that for every trip longer than 10 minutes that a teenager drives, there is a 1 in 1,000 chance that the drive will results in an auto accident. Assume that the cost of an accident can be modeled with a beta distribution with an alpha parameter of 1.5, a beta parameter of 3, a minimum value of $500, and a maximum value of $20,000. Construct...

Problem 14-15 (All answers were generated using 1,000 trials and native Excel functionality.) In preparing for the upcoming holiday season, Fresh Toy Company (FTC) designed a new doll called The Dougie that teaches children how to dance. The fixed cost to produce the doll is $100,000. The variable cost, which includes material, labor, and shipping costs, is $34 per doll. During the holiday selling season, FTC will sell the dolls for $42 each. If FTC overproduces the dolls, the excess...
