Suppose a baker wants to know, on average, how many pastries they sell in a day. They sampled over 4 days. On the first day they sold 10, on the second day they sold 12, on the third day they sold 18, and on the fourth day they sold 16. The population standard deviation of pastry sales is 3. What is the point estimate (average) number of pastries sold? 26 08 056 O 14 Nex

a. Assume that the cost of goods sold is 60% and that the monthly discount rate is 1%. Looking at the values in the exhibit above, you note that the average monthly revenue for a subscribed customer rises as the company sends more emails. In addition, the average monthly revenue for an unsubscribed customer also rises as the company sends more emails. What could explain both of these patterns? b. Calculate the 6-month LTV for each of the four tested email frequencies. Please show the spreadsheet with your calculations and be clear about any assumptions you are making. c. Based on this test, how many emails-per-week should the company be sending to its customers? This email frequency should apply to all customers; the company doesn't want to implement a different email frequency for different kinds of people
