Fаrmer's Fridge оperаtes а netwоrk оf smart vending machines, designed to make finding fresh meals as simple as buying a candy bar from a vending machine.  The company now has over 2,000 fridges in airports, office building, hospitals and universities across the country.  The company is considering how best to stock its Steakhouse Chopped Salad at its fridge at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Central Park, NYC.  Steakhouse Chopped Salads typically last 6 days in the fridge and are restocked every 5 days. Any unsold salads are composted and the containers recycled.  A Steakhouse Chopped Salad costs approximately $5 and sells for $15.  The company is testing a new AI powered forecasting system. Table 1 shows sales and forecasted sales of Steakhouse Chopped Salad at the Metropolitan Museum of Art fridge over the past ten 5-day replenishment cycles. That data is the result of a 50-day experiment in which the fridge was completely stocked with 110 Steakhouse Chopped Salads and nothing else. Over the coming weeks, the company plans to use the results of the experiment to manage how it stocks the fridge with Steakhouse Chopped Salads, Apple Pecan Salads, etc.    [Start Selection] Table 1.

[MaxExpProfit]  Question: What are Farmer's Fridge's maximum expected profits from Steakhouse Chopped Salads at the Metropolitan Museum over the coming 5-day period? [MaxProfits] Question: To achieve these expected profits, how many Steakhouse Chopped Salads must Farmer's Fridge expect to compost from the fridge at the Metropolitan Museum at the end of the coming 5-day period? [compost] Question: Farmer's Fridge is concerned about its environmental impact and wishes to ensure it composts at most 20% of the salads it stocks. If the company wants to expect to meet this standard, how many Steakhouse Chopped Salads should Farmer's Fridge stock the fridge with for the next 5-day period? [wastelimit] Question: How much less profit should Farmer's Fridge expect to earn from Steakhouse Chopped Salads over the next 5-day period if it limits the fraction of salads composted to 20%? [lost]

Fаrmer's Fridge is аlsо cаrrying оut anоther experiment at it's NYU Dance fridge.  There, the company hopes to gain insights into the extent to which packaging influences sales.  The company stocked the fridge with only the Greek Salad and on during the night of the 5th day replenished the fridge with 100 units. Table 1 documents daily sales and inventory over the subsequent 15 days with the original packaging. Table 2 documents daily sales and inventory with the new packaging.  [Start Selection] Table 1: Daily sales and inventory with the original packaging Day Inventory Sales 1 100 22 2 78 30 3 48 30 4 18 18 5 0 0 1 100 28 2 72 19 3 53 25 4 28 27 5 1 1 1 100 26 2 74 17 3 57 20 4 37 21 5 16 16   Table 2: Daily sales and inventory with the new packaging Day Inventory Sales 1 100 32 2 68 31 3 37 35 4 2 2 5 0 0 1 100 34 2 66 30 3 36 24 4 12 12 5 0 0 1 100 22 2 78 32 3 46 32 4 14 14 5 0 0 [End Selection] Question: Estimate the average rate of sales with the original packaging [orig] Question: Estimate the average rate of sale with the new packaging [new]
