Document Summary
Evaluate decision alternatives that can help fill an idle resource. Determine the best use of a resource in short supply. Consider the qualitative and longer-term aspects of short-horizon decisions. Culinary creations specializes in catering weddings, corporate outings, and dinner parties. As most of these events take place on weekends, culinary is booked solid friday through sunday. Weekdays, however, are far less active and culinary often cannot generate enough business to keep the staff busy monday through thursday. A charity organization has just called to ask whether culinary creations could cater its annual fundraising dinner. The charity would like to hold the dinner either on a wednesday or on a saturday. The charity expects 150 people to attend if the dinner is on wednesday and 200 people if the dinner is on saturday. Because it has a limited budget, the charity is willing to pay only per attendee, regardless of the day scheduled.
