Question 4

In a typical week, Zooter has ample warehouse capacity to store the scooters it manufactures. The company has just learned that one of its warehouses got flooded and will not be available to store scooters produced in the coming week. As a result, Zooter projects that its total storage capacity for the coming week will be limited to 8000 cubic feet. One unit of Razor model requires 6 cubic feet of storage capacity and one unit of Navajo model requires 7 cubic feet of storage capacity. In terms of decision variables R and N, which algebraic expression represents the constraint “the total storage capacity required for the next week’s production cannot exceed 8000 cubic feet”?

Consider the decision tree we constructed for IDEA in Session 1 of week 4. Assume that all of the data used in the example – including the 0.5 probability that the market is strong – remain the same as in Session 1, except for the fixed upfront cost charged by Supplier S. Suppose that, instead of a fixed upfront cost of 0€, Supplier S charges IDEA a fixed upfront cost of 175,000€.

Consider the decision tree we constructed for IDEA in Session 1 of week 4. Assume that all of the data used in the example remain the same except for the probability of the market remaining weak or strong. Suppose that, instead of a 0.5 chance that the market is strong, the probability that the market is strong is now 0.6.
