PLEASE READ QUESTION BEFORE COPY/PASTING SOMEONE ELSE'S
WORK
To ensure a full line of outdoor clothing and accessories, the
marketing department at Teddy Bower insists that they also sell
waterproof hunting boots. Unfortunately, neither Teddy Bower nor
Teddy Sports has expertise in manufacturing those kinds of boots.
Therefore, Teddy Bower contacted several Taiwanese suppliers to
request quotes. Due to competition, Teddy Bower knows that it
cannot sell these boots for more than $54. However, $40 per boot
was the best quote from the suppliers. In addition, Teddy
Bower anticipates excess inventory will need to be sold off at a 50
percent discount at the end of the season. Given the $54 price,
Teddy Bower’s demand forecast is for 540 boots, with a standard
deviation of 440.
Suppose Teddy Bower orders 520 boots. What would its
expected profit be? (Round your answer to the nearest whole
number.)
