The lee family is looking to buy a house in one of two suburban areas just outside of a major city, and air quality is a top priority for them. overall air quality is calculated by taking measures in 100 locations within each suburb and then calculating a measure of central tendency. in one suburb, there is a major bus station that creates very poor air quality at its location but has no impact in the surrounding parts of the suburb. in this situation, which measure of overall suburb air quality would be most useful?

M. cotteleer electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. one of the components has an annual demand of 235 units, and this is constant throughout the year. carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering (setup) cost is $21 per order. a) to minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed? b) how many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy? c) what is the average inventory if costs are minimized? d) suppose that the ordering cost is not $21, and cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. for this order policy (of q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.
