When a law firm represents a group of people in a class action lawsuit and wins that lawsuit, the firm receives a
percentage of the group's monetary settlement. That settlement amount is based on the total number of
people in the group – the larger the group and the larger the settlement, the more money the firm will receive.
A law firm is trying to decide whether to represent car owners in a class action lawsuit against the manufacturer
of a certain make and model for a particular defect. If 5 percent or less of the cars of this make and model have
the defect, the firm will not recover its expenses. Therefore, the firm will handle the lawsuit only if it is
convinced that more than 5 percent of cars of this make and model have the defect. The firm plans to take a
random sample of 1000 people who bought this car and ask them if they experienced this defect in their cars.
From the perspective of the law firm, would you recommend that the significance level of a = 0.01 or
a = 0.10 be used…

- 15. The Lake Placid Town Council decided to build a new community center to be used for conventions, concerts, and other public events, but considerable controversy surrounds the appropriate size. Many influential citizens want a large center that would be a showcase for the area. But the mayor feels that if demand does not support such a center, the community will lose a large amount of money. To provide structure for the decision process, the coun- cil narrowed the building alternatives to three sizes: small, medium, and large. Everybody agreed that the critical factor in choosing the best size is the number of people who will want to use the new facility. A regional planning consultant provided demand estimates under three scenarios: worst case, base case, and best case. The worst-case scenario corresponds to a situation in which tourism drops substantially; the base-case scenario corresponds to a situation in which Lake Placid continues to attract visitors at current levels; and…arrow_forwardThe Pharoah Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Pharoah has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Pharoah will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs.Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $ 618,100, useful life 26 years.Building B: Lease for 26 years with annual lease payments of $ 70,340 being made at the beginning of the year.Building C: Purchase for $ 653,200 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 26 years at a net annual rental of $ 6,540. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year.

- 1. A new airline has decided to join the market. It is considering offering flights out of Cagayan, and would initially like to travel to three different locations: Cebu, Palawan, and Bohol. The distances of each round-trip flight going out of Cagayan are (approximately): 720 miles, 1500 miles, and 1140 miles, respectively. The company would like to use the slogan, "the average price per flight is never more than P10, 000." As for costs, it anticipates flights to Cebu will run about 10% of airfare. Similarly, Palawan will run 12% and Bohol will run 14% of airfare. The company wants to ensure that the overall average cost is no more than 10% of earned airfare. Recent market research allows the company to conclude that it could probably sell about 1900 Cebu tickets, 700 Palawan tickets, and 1000 Bohol tickets. Under these conditions and assuming that all tickets sold are round-trip flights, how much should the company charge per ticket in order to maximize its total revenue? a.
