Textbook Question

Chapter 3.1, Problem 46E

For Exercises 42–47, perform the following steps.

(a) Write a system of inequalities to express the conditions of the problem.
(b) Graph the feasible region of the system.

46. Production Scheduling A cement manufacturer produces at least 3.2 million barrels of cement annually. He is told by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that his operation emits 2.5 lb of dust for each barrel produced. The EPA has ruled that annual emissions must be reduced to no more than 1.8 million lb. To do this, the manufacturer plans to replace the present dust collectors with two types of electronic precipitators. One type would reduce emissions to 0.5 lb per barrel and operating costs would be 16¢ per barrel. The other would reduce the dust to 0.3 lb per barrel and operating costs would be 20¢ per barrel. The manufacturer does not want to spend more than 0.8 million dollars in operating costs on the precipitators. He needs to know how many barrels he could produce with each type. Let x = the number of barrels (in millions) produced with the first type and y = the number of barrels (in millions) produced with the second type.

Suppose the market demand for mangoes in the Sultanate of Oman is given by Qd = 300 – 20 P and the market supply for mangoes is given by Qs = 20 P – 100, where P = price (per kg mangoes). Graph the supply and demand schedules for mangoes using $5 through $15 as the value of P. In equilibrium, how much mangoes would be sold and at what price? What would happen if suppliers set the price of mangoes at $15? Explain the market adjustment process.

[For Q4 – Q5] Consider the following lifecycle model of consumption. Minjoon has 50 years of life remaining. He plans to work 30 more years from now and then retire. He earns $1,000 per year while he is working and has $200 per year pension income after retirement. He currently has $1,000 of savings. He wants equal consumption every year. The interest rate is zero. Q4. What will be Minjoon's wealth at the moment of retirement? Answer: a) $1,000. b) $3,000. c) $5,000. d) $10,000. Q5. Which of the following statements regarding this lifecycle model is (are) correct? I. If the income while working increases from $1,000 per year to $1,100 per year, Minjoon's optimal consumption before retirement will increase by $60 per year. II. Minjoon will decrease his consumption at the moment of retirement because he will have less income after his retirement. Answer: a) None of the above. b) I only. c) II only. d) I and II.
