I believe that Julia would increase her profit if she borrowed some more money from a friend. Her shadow price, or dual value, is $1.50 for each additional dollar that she earns. The upper limit given in the model is $1,658.88, which means that Julia can borrow only $158.88 from her friend, which would give her an additional profit of $238.32.
Evaluate the prospect of paying a friend $100/game to assist.
In order for Julia to be able to prepare the BBQ sandwiches and hot dogs in a short period of time to make her profit, she needs the additional help. With her borrowing

    It would be an honor to be a FBLA officer again this year and I have a lot of experience since I was the secretary for FBLA last year. I went to every single meeting and I came to all our school functions like trunk or treat and I donated to all our fundraisers. I had a blast last year being a part of this club and I enjoyed making decisions that influenced FBLA events. I am in many other clubs like SCA, Latin club, and book club because I love working with others and contributing to our community.

    In short, the first $10, 000.00 he managed to obtain from CADIVI is with the cost of (Bs 1920/$ + Bs 500/$) x $10, 000.00 = Bs 24, 200, 000.00. Santiago left with two options other than CADIVI, which is the gray market (with the implicit rate of Bs 2952/$) and the black market (with the unofficial rate of Bs 3300/$). If he raises the $20, 000.00 through the gray market, the cost will be Bs 2952/$ x $20, 000.00 = Bs 59, 040, 000.00. In contrast, if he raises the $20, 000.00 through the black market, the cost will be Bs 3300/$ x $20, 000.00 = Bs 66, 000, 000.00. In comparison, raising the dollars through gray market is less costly by Bs 6, 960, 000.00 (Bs 66, 000, 000.00 – Bs 59, 040, 000.00). Therefore, the solution to Santiago’s problem is that he should choose the gray market because it is less costly as it is able to save him Bs 6, 960, 000.00 compared to raising through the black market and the gray market is less risky as well. In conclusion, the total cost of $30, 000.00 will be Bs 24, 200, 000.00 + Bs 59, 040, 000.00 = Bs 83, 240, 000.00 by raising $10, 000.00 from CADIVI and the rest $20, 000.00 through the gray market. The table below shows the type of the costs involved in raising those…
