Question: please make a numerical solution V=2000 First carefully calculate the following: V = LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR STUDENT NUMBER (e.g., S043210 3210; S090807 0807)

please make a numerical solution V=2000 First

please make a numerical solution V=2000

First carefully calculate the following: V = LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR STUDENT NUMBER (e.g., S043210 3210; S090807 0807) Vs = SUM OF DIGITS OF V (e.g., 3210 6; 0807 > 15) Consider TXL, an original equipment manufacturer that produces mobile communication devices with very short product life cycles, for telecom companies all around the world who brand and sell these devices under their name. Due to market forces, TXL has to innovate and introduce a new version of their products every year. Demand characteristics of its products makes forecasting and purchase decisions very challenging for the components that go into manufacturing. Sourcing of the LCD module has historically been problematic, with significant observations of insufficient quantities in the recent years, and the management at TXL would like to develop a solid approach to their decision process and contractual relationship with its supplier, Pavan, Inc. For the upcoming year, Pavan has announced a unit wholesale price of $(40 - Vs/4) for these modules, which are custom designed (in terms of size, resolution, technology, and interface) for the current generation of TXL's devices and has little value if not used. It is estimated that TXL could liquidate the leftover modules in a secondary market at 60% loss. To build the current generation of devices, TXL's cost for all other components and material was $(120 + Vs) per unit, and the average sale price was expected to be $200 per unit. TXL's demand forecast was Normally distributed with mean (5000+ V) and standard deviation (200. Vs). Assume Pavan's unit cost for each module to be $20. 1) How many LCD modules should TXL order to maximize their annual expected profits? 2) Calculate expected profits for TXL and Pavan, given the order quantity found in Q1. 3) How many LCD modules should be shipped to TXL in order to maximize the total supply chain profits? Calculate the resulting expected profits for both TXL and Pavan
