Dwayne cole, owner of a Florida firm that manufactures display cabinets, develops an 8- month aggregate plan. Demand and capacity ( in units) are forecast as follows: Capacity The cost of producing each unit is $ 1,000 on regular time, $ 1,300 on overtime, and $ 1,800 on a subcontract. Inventory carrying cost is $ 200 per unit per month. There is no beginning or ending inventory in stock, and no backorders are permitted from period to period. Let the production (workforce) vary by using regular time first, then overtime, and then subcontracting.

a) Set up a production plan that minimizes cost by producing exactly what the demand is each month. This plan allows no backorders or inventory. What is this plan€™s cost?

b) Through better planning, regular- time production can be set at exactly the same amount, 275 units, per month. If demand cannot be met there is no cost assigned to shortages and they will not be filled. Does this alter the solution?

c) If overtime costs per unit rise from $ 1,300 to $ 1,400, will your answer to ( a) change? What if overtime costs then fall to $1,200?

Alandowner and his neighbor purchased adjoining undeveloped lots. after both built homes on their respective lots, the landowner suggested to the neighbor that a common driveway be built where the two lots joined. the neighbor agreed. the landowner and the neighbor split the cost of constructing the driveway and entered into a written agreement to equally share the costs of its upkeep and maintenance. the agreement was recorded in the county recorder's office. two years later, the neighbor built a new driveway located entirely on his lot. the common driveway, which the landowner continued to use but which the neighbor no longer used, began to deteriorate. the landowner asked the neighbor for money to maintain the common driveway, but the neighbor refused to contribute. three years later, the neighbor conveyed his lot to a friend. the friend entered into possession and used only the driveway built by the neighbor. by this time, the common driveway had deteriorated badly and contained numerous potholes. the landowner asked the friend to pay half of what it would take to repair the common driveway. the friend refused. the landowner repaired the driveway and sued the friend for 50% of the cost of repairs. will the landowner prevail?
