Production Cost Analysis and Estimation Applied Problems

Please complete the following two applied problems:

Problem 1:

     William is the owner of a small pizza shop and is thinking of increasing products and lowering costs. William’s pizza shop owns four ovens and the cost of the four ovens is $1,000. Each worker is paid $500 per week.

Workers employed / Quantity of pizzas produced per week

0 / 0

1 / 75

2 / 180

3 / 360

4 / 600

5 / 900

6 / 1140

7 / 1260

8 / 1360

Show all of your calculations and processes. Describe your answer for each question in complete sentences, whenever it is necessary.

  1. Which inputs are fixed and which are variable in the production function of William’s pizza shop? Over what ranges do there appear to be increasing, constant, and/or diminishing returns to the number of workers employed?
  2. What number of workers appears to be most efficient in terms of pizza product per worker?
  3. What number of workers appears to minimize the marginal cost of pizza production assuming that each pizza worker is paid $500 per week?
  4. Why would marginal productivity decline when you hire more workers in the short run after a certain level?
  5. How would expanding the business affect the economies of scale? When would you have constant returns to scale or diseconomies of scale? Describe your answer.

Problem 2:

     The Paradise Shoes Company has estimated its weekly TVC function from data collected over the past several months, as TVC = 3450 + 20Q + 0.008Q2 where TVC represents the total variable cost and Q represents pairs of shoes produced per week. And its demand equation is Q = 4100 – 25P. The company is currently producing 1,000 pairs of shoes weekly and is considering expanding its output to 1,200 pairs of shoes weekly. To do this, it will have to lease another shoe-making machine ($2,000 per week fixed payment until the lease period ends). Show all of your calculations and processes. Describe your answer for each item below in complete sentences, whenever it is necessary.

  1. Describe and derive an expression for the marginal cost (MC) curve.
  2. Describe and estimate the incremental costs of the extra 200 pairs per week (from 1,000 pairs to 1,200 pairs of shoes).
  3. What are the profit-maximizing price and output levels for Paradise Shoes? Describe and calculate the profit-maximizing price and output.
  4. Discuss whether or not Paradise Shoes should expand its output further beyond 1,200 pairs per week. State all assumptions and qualifications that underlie your recommendation.

XML is a technology concerned with the description and structuring of data. XML document describes any information with flexibility structure. For example, the following XML document describes a note to Tove from Jani with heading and content of the note.

<note>

  <to>Tove</to>

  <from>Jani</from>

  <heading>Reminder</heading>

  <body>Don’t forget me this weekend!</body>

</note>

Your assignment is to construct the following XML documents to use in police reports describing user and review. The details of the reports are listed below.

User is a person who files a report. This XML document describes the person profile.

user(

    userID SERIAL,

    username varchar(255),

    password varchar(255),

    firstname varchar(255),

    middlename varchar(255),

lastname varchar(255),

    email varchar(255),

dob date,

    gender varchar(10),

profile_photo bytea,

home_phone varchar(50),

    cell_phone varchar(50),

    created_date timestamp default current_timestamp

);

Review is a review of a user. This XML document describes a review of a person who files a report for credibility of the report.

review(

    reviewID SERIAL,

    reviewDescription text,

    star double precision,

    userID serial references users(userID),

    created_date timestamp default current_timestamp

);

How do I go about creating these XML document with this information?

ONLY NEED TO ANSWER QUESTION BELOW:

(4 points + 1 point BONUS) There is some evidence to suggest that exposure to airborne fungal products may be associated with adverse health effects, for example, respiratory tract infections. A random sample of Canadian elementary schools was obtained and the following data was obtained for each: mesophilic fungi (y, in cfu/m3), building age (Age, x1, in years), air exchange rate (Rate, xz, per hour),indoor C02 (C02, X3, ppm), and outdoor temperature (Temperature, X4, °C).

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Management, Organization and Media. It needs to be at least 3000 words.

Likewise, organizational behavior to a large aspect normally focuses on managerial and organizational behaviors within an organizational setup. The movie “the devil wears Prada” focuses on Andy who is an aspiring journalist who gets himself a job or position considered to be dream a job for many girls (Bell, Warren & Schroeder, 2013). Andrea is hired as a second assistant to Miranda Priestly, who is described as a powerful and ruthless executive of the magazine company where Andy finds her job (Champoux, 2001). To Andy, her new job position is seen as a stepping stone into the famous world of publishing and she tries her best to last in the position for a period of one year in spite of the position demanding too much from her. However, her time at the position opens up a new world for Andy for another journalist position she desires in her future. This essay, therefore examines management and organizational issues raised in the movie “The Devil Wears Prada” directed by David Frankel in 2006 (The devil wears Prada, 2006).

In the movie “the devil wears prada” issues of leaderships have been displayed in different characters and especially the main characters in the movie. Leadership can be described as the act of influencing others to follow a certain path or take a different direction from the one they choose to achieve certain set objectives (Czarniawska et al, 1994). The two characters in the movie that exudes leadership qualities are Miranda Priestly and Emily Charlton. What makes these two characters execeptional in the movie in regards to the leadership and managerial issues? Emily, who was acting as Miranda’s second in the power position, however deteriorates when Andrea Sach is appointed to occupy her position. This means that the privileges and powers she was enjoying while serving in her position are taken away, and given to someone else. Just like many
