14. Digital Controls, Inc. (DCI) manufactures two models of a radar gun used by police to mon- itor the speed of automobiles. Model A has an accuracy of plus or minus 1 mile per hour, whereas the smaller model B has an accuracy of plus or minus 3 miles per hour. For the next week, the company has orders for 100 units of model A and 150 units of model B. Although DCI purchases all the electronic components used in both models, the plastic cases for both models are manufactured at a DCI plant in Newark, New Jersey. Each model A case re- quires 4 minutes of injection-molding time and 6 minutes of assembly time. Each model B case requires 3 minutes of injection-molding time and 8 minutes of assembly time. For next week the Newark plant has 600 minutes of injection-molding time available and 1080 min- utes of assembly time available. The manufacturing cost is $10 per case for model A and $6 per case for model B. Depending upon demand and the time available at the Newark plant, DCI…

Mickey Mouse: To Talk or Not? When Walt Disney created the Disney empire in the 1950s, he forbid its star characters such as Mickey Mouse and Pluto to talk. Mr. Disney thought it would be too difficult to control the service encounters between customers and the Disney characters, and it would ruin the “magic” of Disney. Therefore, Disney characters were trained to gesture and use only their body language to interact and entertain guests. Today, during a meeting of (fictional) senior “imagineering” managers, Mr. Luke Tomas, V. P. of Costume Design, said, “Mr. Walt Disney would not like Mickey Mouse talking if he were alive.” “But Luke, if Mickey speaks it gives us new ways to interact with our guests,” responded Cindy Bridgetown, V.P. of Imagineering, and Luke’s boss. “Cindy, we can’t control the conversation if Mickey talks to guests. Kids and parents are going to get their feelings hurt one way or another. And it’s too demanding on our employees.” Using the “What Do Operations…

Her husband, Dustin, tells her that forecasted cold weather is going to lower the market price for the day and that she is likely to lose money today if she opens her stand. He suggests that she shuts down for the day (i.e., the short run) to avoid the negative profit. Is he right? Why or why not? 3. Grandma promises to sneak you some bourbon while your parents are cleaning up the dinner dishes, but only if you can impress her with something you learned in your economics class. Carefully explain to Grandma why the short run average total cost curve is U-shaped so that the two of you can sip a little Maker's together.
