Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

Executive Summary
Business Mathematics includes mathematics courses taken at an
undergraduate level by business students. These courses are slightly
less difficult and do not always going to the same depth as other
mathematics courses for people majoring in mathematics or science
fields. The two most common math courses taken in this form are
Business Calculus and Business Statistics. Examples used for problems
in these courses are usually real-life problems from the business world.
An example of the differences in course work from a business
mathematics course and a regular mathematics course would be
calculus. In a regular calculus course, students would study
trigonometric functions. Business calculus would not study
trigonometric functions because it would be time-consuming and
useless to most business students, except perhaps economics majors.
Economics majors who plan to continue economics in graduate school
are strongly encouraged to take regular calculus instead of business
calculus, as well as linear algebra and other advanced math courses.
Other subjects typically covered in a business mathematics curriculum
include:

Matrix algebra
Linear programming
Probability theory
Set

In Our study we show how integral and differential Business calculus is


used in Business as a part of our topic Application of Mathematics in
real world Business. A study on- Square Pharmaceuticals Ltd..

Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

Part-I
1.1 Introduction
Business ownership requires more than skill in creating a product or
talent at providing a service. Overseeing the finances of your company
is key to survival and success. Understanding basic business math is
necessary for profitable operations and accurate record keeping.
Knowing how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, round and use
percentages and fractions is the minimum you need to price your
product and meet your budget. If math is not your strength, partner
with someone who can take over that role or hire a trusted employee
to help your operation stay in the black and grow responsibly.
Since the research topic is Application of Mathematics in real world
Business - A Study on Square Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and also find out
how math rules are applied in the business to determine average cost,
marginal const, Net profit etc.

Part II
2.1 Business Mathematics
Business mathematics is mathematics used by business enterprises to
record and manage business operations. Business organizations use
mathematics in accounting, inventory management, marketing, sales
forecasting, and financial analysis.
Mathematics typically used in commerce includes elementary
arithmetic, elementary algebra, statistics and probability. Business
management can be made more effective in some cases by use of more
advanced mathematics such as calculus, matrix algebra and linear
programming; see operations research.

2.2 Calculus
Calculus is the mathematical study of change,[1] in the same way that
geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of operations
and their application to solving equations.
Calculus is a part of modern mathematics education. A course in
calculus is a gateway to other, more advanced courses in mathematics
devoted to the study of functions and limits, broadly called
mathematical analysis.
It has two major branches. They are
Differential Calculus (concerning rates of change and slopes of
curves), and

Department of Finance

Jagannath University

11 | P a g e

Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

Integral Calculus (concerning accumulation of quantities and the


areas under and between curves);

2.3 Differential Calculus


Differential calculus is the study of the definition, properties, and
applications of the derivative of a function. The process of finding the
derivative is called differentiation. Given a function and a point in the
domain, the derivative at that point is a way of encoding the small-scale
behavior of the function near that point. By finding the derivative of a
function at every point in its domain, it is possible to produce a new
function, called the derivative function or just the derivative of the
original function.

2.4 Integral Calculus

Integral calculus is the study of the definitions, properties, and


applications of two related concepts, the indefinite integral and the
definite integral. The process of finding the value of an integral is called
integration. In technical language, integral calculus studies two related
linear operators.
The indefinite integral is the anti derivative, the inverse operation to
the derivative. F is an indefinite integral of f when f is a derivative of F.
(This use of lower- and upper-case letters for a function and its
indefinite integral is common in calculus.)
The definite integral inputs a function and outputs a number, which
gives the algebraic sum of areas between the graph of the input and

the x-axis. The technical definition of the definite integral is the limit of
a sum of areas of rectangles, called a Riemann sum.
The symbol of integration is , an elongated S (the S stands for "sum").
The definite integral is written as:

2.5 Theory of Sets


Set theory is a mathematical abstract concerned with the grouping of
sets of numbers that have commonality. For example, all even numbers
make up a set, and all odd numbers comprise a set. All numbers that
end in zero make up a set of numbers that can be divided by 10. Using
and comparing sets enables the creation of theories and rules that have
practically unlimited scope, whether in mathematics or applied to areas
such as business.

2.6 Matrix
A matrix organizes a group of numbers, or variables, with specific rules
of arithmetic. It is represented as a rectangular group of rows and
columns, such as
.

Department of Finance

Jagannath University

13 | P a g e

Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

This 2X3 matrix has two rows and three columns; the number 23 is
in the second row of the third column.
An example of a square matrix with variables, rather than numbers, is .

This is a square matrix because the number of rows equals the number
of columns.
We can only add matrices of the same dimensions, because we add the
corresponding elements. .
Matrix multiplication is another matter entirely. Lets multiply matrices
MP=R. M is an m X n matrix; P is n X p; and the result R will have
dimension m X p. Note that the number of columns of the left-hand
matrix, M, must equal the number of rows of the right hand matrix, P.
For example. A matrix can also multiply, or be multiplied by, a vector.

Matrix mathematics has many applications. Mathematicians, scientists


and engineers represent groups of equations as matrices; then they
have a systematic way of doing the math. Computers have embedded
matrix arithmetic in graphic processing algorithms, especially to render
reflection and refraction. Some properties of matrix mathematics are
important in math theory.
However, few of us are likely to consciously apply matrix mathematics
in our day to day lives.

3.3 Application of Differential Calculus


We are given x unit of tablet are produced, the average cost per unit is
A(x) Taka (we assume). Where

Now we find out the value of y that maximizes average cost per unit.
We start by A(x) as
-1

+0.05x

Differentiating A(x) we obtain


A(x)

A(x)

200(-1)

-20

-2
-2

(0.1) + 0.05

+ 0.05

+ 0.05

Continuing, we get A(x) equal to 0 and solve for x


+0.05=0
So X = 150 and X= -250
We discard X=-250 because it is negative and the problem statement
requires that X be greater than 0
Now we find out Minimum Average Cost
To find the minimum average cost per unit of tablet, we write

3.5 Application of Set


A Survey on Consumer Preference (1200 Sample)

Department of Finance

21 | P a g e

Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

A question was Asked them that which companys medicine do you


prefer And provide them 3 alternatives: Square, Beximco and Incepta.
Among Them 512 chose Square, 400 chose Beximco and 350 chose
Incepta. 95 chose both Square & Beximco, 142 chose both Square &
Incepta, 100 chose Beximco & Incepta and 50 chose all of them. Now
from Above data we can determine:
1. How Many consumer did not Choose any one?
2. How Many consumers choose only one?
Solution
(1) We are given:
n(U)

=1200

n(S) =512

n(B)

=400

n(I) =350

n(SB)

=95

n(SI)=142

n(BI)

=100 and

n(SBI) =50
Now
n(S U B U I)

= n(S) + n(B) + n(I) - n(SB)-n(SI) - n(BI) + n(SBI)


=512+400+350-95-142-100+50

=975

So no. of consumer did not choose any,


=

n(u)- n(S U B U I)

1200-975 =

225person

(2) No. of consumer who choose Only Square


= n(S) - n(SB) - n(SI) + n(SBI) = 512-95-142+50= 325person
No. of consumer who choose Only Beximco
= n(B) - n(SB) - n(BI) + n(SBI) = 400-95-100+50= 255 person
Department of Finance

Jagannath University

22 | P a g e

Application of Mathematics in Real World Business

No. of consumer who choose Only Incepta


= n(I)-n(BI)-n(SI) +n(SBI) =350-100-142+50= 158person
So, Square is the highest preference among consumers

3.6 Application of Matrix
