Problem 1 (20 points)


The owner of Luxury Cars 51 collected the following statistics:






























Potential
Rentals Daily



Probability



0



0.10



1



0.17



2



0.20



3



0.28



4



0.25




























Rental
Duration



Probability



1 day



0.48



2 days



0.30



3 days



0.15



4 days



0.07




The gross profit is $39 per car per day rented. When there is demand for a car but none is available, there is an opportunity loss of $82. Each day a car is unused costs you $16 per car. Luxury Cars 51 initially has four cars.


Conduct a 10-day simulation of this business and determine the profit (repeat the 10-day simulation 100 times)


If your firm can obtain another car for $200 for 10 days, should you take the extra car?
