...programming model for Julia’s Food Booth, I feel that Julia should lease the food booth at the Tech stadium football games. Yes. Julia should lease the booth because she would potentially make a profit of $1150 ($2250-$1100) each game; this is more than what she needs to run the booth. In addition, because she has cash on hand of $1500 to purchase and prepare the food items for the first game, Julia would not have to use any of the money that she makes to buy ingredients for the next game. She could still use the cash that she has on hand to buy ingredients for the next game. Next, if Julia were to borrow some more money from a friend before the first game to purchase more ingredients, she could increase her profit. Julia should borrow $138.40, so that she can make an additional profit of $207.60. An allowable increase in the ‘budget’ constrains her from borrowing more money than this. Because the shadow price for the budget constraint is 1.50 and the allowable increase is 138.40, the budget can go up to 1638.40 and the profit would increase by 1.50 for every dollar that is added to the budget. Also, Julia should hire a friend of hers to help her for $100 per game. It would be physically difficult and probably too much for her to prepare all of the hot dogs and BBQs before the game and during half time. If she borrows the extra $138.40, she can use a portion of this money to pay her friend without losing out on any money. Lastly, although Julia is basing her analysis...

...Assignment #3: Case Problem "Julia's Food Booth" Complete the "Julia's Food Booth" case problem on page 109 of the text. Address each of the issues A - D according the instructions given. (A) Formulate and solve an L.P. model for this case. See Excel worksheet. (B) Evaluate the prospect of borrowing money before the first game. I would suggest that Julia consider borrowing money before the first game to open up her food booth. According to the first constraint, she is subject to a $1,500 budget with a potential to make a profit of $2,250 if she were to sell all her pizza and hot dogs. This result yields a profit of $750 or 50%. Even if no sales were made, the potential is high, considering the opportunity. Plus, I am sure that a small initial investment is not detrimental to her personal funds, to where if things did not go as planned, she could recover the funds. (C) Evaluate the prospect of paying a friend $100/game to assist. I would suggest that Julia consult a friend for $100/game to assist in her food booth. After running a break-even analysis (see Excel), holding all things constant, where she only sells pizza and hot dogs, she would have to sell 67 slices of pizza and 48 hotdogs to break-even after paying her friend $100. This does not seem too farfetched, considering her maximum sales, given these constraints, is 1,250 slices of pizza and 1,250 hot dogs, only about 5% and 4% of maximum sales, respectively. On top of that, Julia may need the help to meet demand...

...(A) Formulate and solve an L.P. model for this case. Decision variables p=Pizza, h=Hot Dog, s=Sandwich. maximize Z = 0.75x1 + 1.05x2 + 1.35x3 subject to: 24.5p + 16h + 25s = 0 p, h, s >= 0 The maximum profit occurs when p = 1250, h=1250, and s=0 and Z = $2250 To produce the maximum results Julia should stock 1250 slices of pizza, and 1250 hot dogs, and 0 sandwiches. (B) Evaluate the prospect of borrowing money before the first game. It is clear from the report that the shadow price for the budget is 1.50 and allowable increase is 138.4 Therefore, each dollar added to the budget will increase profit by $1.50 with a maximum increase of $138.40. Therefore the maximum amount Julia can borrow is $138.40 which will produce an additional profit of 138.4 x 1.5 = $207.60. Space is the factor which constrains Julia’s from borrowing more money. (C) Evaluate the prospect of paying a friend $100/game to assist. If Julia’s feels she needs help than $100 would still keep her above the $1000 dollar profit margin. Therefore, if Julia cannot handle the work load alone it would be advisable for her to hire some help. If she is able to handle the work load herself, then she could keep that $100 for herself. (D) Analyze the impact of uncertainties on the model. The biggest uncertainty in this model is demand. Although Julia may have a good idea of what people will buy and not buy during the game, the demand can shift from game to game and is not...

...Prologue Florence, 1283 The poet stood next to the bridge and watched as the young woman approached. The world ground to a near standstill as he remarked her wide, dark eyes and elegantly curled brown hair. At first he didn’t recognize her. She was breathtakingly beautiful, her movements sure and graceful. Yet there was something about her face and figure that reminded him of the girl he’d fallen in love with long ago. They’d gone their separate ways, and he had always mourned her, his angel, his muse, his beloved Beatrice. Without her, his life had been lonely and small. Now his blessedness appeared. As she approached him with her companions, he bowed his head and body in a chivalrous salute. He had no expectation that his presence would be acknowledged. She was both perfect and untouchable, a browneyed angel dressed in resplendent white, while he was older, world-weary and wanting. She had almost passed him when his downcast eyes caught sight of one of her slippers — a slipper that hesitated just in front of him. His heart beat a furious tattoo as he waited, breathless. A soft and gentle voice broke into his remembrances as she spoke to him kindly. His startled eyes flew to hers. For years and years he’d longed for this moment, dreamed of it even, but never had he imagined encountering her in such a serendipitous fashion. And never had he dared hope he would be greeted so sweetly. Caught off balance, he mumbled his pleasantries and allowed himself the indulgence of a smile...

At Duke Law, we no longer think of “international” as a separate category. Virtually everything we do has some international dimension, whether it concerns international treaties and protocols, commercial transactions across national borders, international child custody disputes, criminal behavior that violates international human rights law, international sports competitions, global environmental regulation, international terrorism, or any number of other topics. And, of course, there is little that we do at Duke that does not involve scholars and students from other countries, who are entirely integrated with U.S. scholars and students. Students enrolled in our joint JD/LLM program in international and comparative law receive an in-depth education in both the public and private aspects of international and comparative law, enriched by the ubiquitous presence of foreign students; likewise, the foreign lawyers who enroll in our one-year LLM program in American law enroll in the same courses, attend the same conferences...
