The Fizzy Company produces six-packs of soda cans. Each can is supposed to contain at least 12
Question:
a. Assume that the weight of each can in a six-pack has a 0.8 correlation with the weight of the other cans in the six-pack. What mean fill quantity maximizes expected profit per six-pack? Try mean fill rates from 12.00 to 12.35 in increments of 0.05.
b. If the weights of the cans in the six-pack are probabilistically independent, what mean fill quantity maximizes expected profit per six-pack? Try the same mean fill rates as in part a.
c. How can you explain the difference in the answers to parts a and b?
