This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?

One of the growers is excited by this advancement because now he can sell more crops, which he believes will increase revenue in this market. as an economics student, you can use elasticities to determine whether this change in price will lead to an increase or decrease in total revenue in this market. using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand for soybeans between the prices of $5 and $4 per bushel is , which means demand is between these two points. therefore, you would tell the grower that his claim is because total revenue will as a result of the technological advancement.
