Northwoods Backpackers is a retail catalog store in Vermont that specializes in outdoor clothing and camping equipment. Phone orders are taken each day by a large pool of computer operators, some of whom are permanent and some temporary. A permanent operator can process an average of 76 orders per day, whereas a temporary operator can process an average of 53 orders per day. The company averages at least 600 orders per day. The store has 10 computer workstations. A permanent operator processes about 1.3 orders with errors each day, whereas a temporary operator averages 4.1 orders with errors daily. The store wants to limit errors to 24 per day. A permanent operator is paid $81 per day, including benefits, and a temporary operator is paid $50 per day. The company wants to know the number of permanent and temporary operators to hire to minimize costs.

Google started as one of many internet search engines, amazon started as an online book seller, and ebay began as a site where people could sell used personal items in auctions. these firms have grown to be so large and dominant that they are facing antitrust scrutiny from competition regulators in the us and elsewhere. did these online giants grow by fairly beating competition, or did they use unfair advantages? are there any clouds on the horizon for these firms -- could they face diseconomies of scale or diseconomies of scope as they continue to grow? if so, what factors may limit their continued growth?
