A garage band wants to hold a concert. The expected crowd has a Normal distribution with the mean of 3000 and standard deviation of 200. The average expenditure on concessions is Uniformly distributed with a minimum of $10 and maximum of 25 dollars. Tickets sell for $10 each, and the band’s profit is 80% of the gate (ticket sale) and concession sales, minus a fixed cost of $12,000. Use the provided spreadsheet model and conduct a Monte Carlo simulation with 500 trials to analyze the band profit.
In your analysis,
a. find the minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation for band profit.
b. create the frequency distribution (using FREQUENCY function) and the histogram for
band profit.

During December, Krause Chemical Company had the following selected data concerning the manufacture of Xyzine, an industrial cleaner:

Production Flow Physical Units
Completed and transferred to the next department 100
Add: Ending work in process inventory 10(40% complete as to conversion)
Total units to account for 110
Less: Beginning work in process Inventory 20(60% complete as to conversion)
Units started during 90

All materials are added at the beginning of processing in this department, and conversion costs are added uniformly during the process. The beginning work in process inventory had $120 of raw materials and $180 of conversion costs incurred. Materials added during December were $540, and conversion costs of $1,484 were incurred. Krause uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) process cost method. The equivalent units of production used to compute conversion costs for December were:

a. 110 units.
b. 104 units.
c. 100 units.
d. 92 units.

Olmsted Co. has small computer chips assembled in Poland and transports the final assembled products to the parent, where they are sold by the parent in the U.S. The assembled products are invoiced in dollars. It uses Polish currency (the zloty) to produce these chips, and assemble them in Poland. The Polish subsidiary pays the employees in the local currency (zloty).
