Paid on delivery
I am looking for a freelancer that is experience with excel, especially the Data Table and Goal Seeker functions of the What-if-Analysis menu. Question 1: (using data table) The annual demand for a product equals 500-3p+10a0.5, where p is the price on the product in dollars and “a” is hundreds of dollars spent on advertising the product. The annual fixed cost of selling the product is $10,000 and the unit variable cost of producing the product is $12. Determine a price (within $10) and amount of advertising (within $100) that maximizes profit. Question 2: (using goal seek) At the end of the year for each of the next 40 years, I’m going to put $15,000 in my retirement fund. What rate of return on my investments do I need so that I will have $2 million available for retirement in 40 years?

Statistics and data analysis is my passion. I have 11.5 years of Experience in various IT companies. I have already worked both answers partially and have few clarifications Regarding Q1 : Selling price = Expenses + Profit = (Fixed Price + Variable Price X no of units sold) + Profit If Selling price is even 10$ and no of units sold is say X then 10X =10000 + 12X + Profit Solving profit in the above equation will always give a negative number. Selling price has to be atleast 13$ per unit to get a profit. If we consider the annual demand equation alone then definitely price can be less than 10$. I have used solver instead of what if analysis. I hope that is fine. Regarding Q2 : Is there any assumption you would like to make on the inflation rate year on year ? Usually, it is assumed around 7% in India for calculation.
