OK, Determinants are Easy, but What are they good for? Oops, sorry English Folks, I meant “For what are they good?” Sometimes it may seem to students that the only value of the thing they have just learned in math is to be able to learn the next thing and although I am a big proponent of the “Math for Math’s sake” school, I occasionally feel a swelling up of my old Engineering background urging me to provide an application of the learning. In just such a mood, I offer the following

market share. We need to reduce internal costs by identifying functional areas where IT can be applied to assist in reducing costs, i.e. IT systems will replace some of the workforce.

This leads to previously mentioned lack in forecasting, scheduling, inventory and supply chain problems. If one overall system is put
