Fair Lakes Hospital Corporation has been operating ambulatory surgery centers in Groveton and Stockdale, two small communities each about an hour away from its main hospital. As a cost control measure the hospital has decided that it needs only one of those two centers permanently, so one must be shut down. The decision regarding which center to close will be made on financial considerations alone. The following information is available: a. The Groveton center was built 15 years ago at a cost of million on land leased from the City of Groveton at a cost of per year. The land and buildings will immediately revert back to the city if the center is closed. The center has annual operating costs of million, all of which will be saved if the center is closed. In addition, Fair Lakes allocates of common administrative costs to the Groveton center. If the center is closed, these costs would be reallocated to other ambulatory centers. If the center is kept open, Fair Lakes plans to invest million in a fixed income note, which will earn the that Fair Lakes needs for the lease payments. b. The Stockdale center was built 20 years ago at a cost of million, of which Fair Lakes and the City of Stockdale each paid half, on land donated by a hospital benefactor. Two years ago, Fair Lakes spent million to renovate the facility. If the center is closed, the property will be sold to developers for million. The operating costs of the center are million per year, all of which will be saved if the center is closed. Fair Lakes allocates million of common administrative costs to the Stockdale center. If the center is closed, these costs would be reallocated to other ambulatory centers. c. Fair Lakes estimates that the operating costs of whichever center remains open will be million per year.

Jasmine​ Dantas' Bed and​ Breakfast, in a small historic Mississippi​ town, must decide how to subdivide​ (remodel) the large old home that will become its inn. There are three​ alternatives: Option A would modernize all baths and combine​ rooms, leaving the inn with four​ suites, each suitable for two to four adults. Option B would modernize only the second​ floor; the results would be six​ suites, four for two to four​ adults, two for two adults only. Option C​ (the status quo​ option) leaves all walls intact. In this​ case, there are eight rooms​ available, but only two are suitable for four​ adults, and four rooms will not have private baths. Below are the details of profit and demand patterns that will accompany each​ option: Annual Profit under Various Demand Patterns Alternatives High p Average p A​ (modernize all) $ 94,000 0.50 $ 25,000 0.50 B​ (modernize 2nd) $ 84,000 0.40 $ 75,000 0.60 C​ (status quo) $ 62,000 0.25 $ 50,000 0.75 b) The option with the highest expected value for Jasmine​ Dantas' Bed and Breakfast is Option B, with an expected value of $ (round your response to the nearest whole​ number).
