2) A small grocery store sells fresh produce that it obtains daily from a local farmer. During the strawberry season, demand for fresh strawberries can be reasonably approximated using a normal distribution with a mean of 40 quarts per day and a standard deviation of 6 quarts per day. The marginal cost of fresh strawberries is $0.35 per quart. The grocer orders 49 quarts per day. If this order quantity is optimal, what is the implied marginal benefit per quart of fresh strawberries

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1.05

Explanation:

Mean is 40 quartz per day

standard deviation is 6 quartz per day

Optimal orders = mean demand + Standard deviation

Optimal order = 40 + 6

= 46 quartz per day

$0.35 * 2.84 * 49 / 46

= $1.05
