Thanks for a good one, where I finally could use a bunch of linear regressions. Steamrolling! (I was sure there would be some devious trap, but I guess sometimes the basics actually do work, which is how they became the basics)
One thing that perhaps would make it easier was if the web interactive could tell whether or not your selection was the optimal one directly, and possibly how higher your expected price was than the optimal price (I first plugged mine in, then had to double check with your table out here)
Anyway, greetings, and looking forward to seeing the next one. Will train on the older ones until then
I’m glad you feel that way about this scenario. I wish I did . . .
(For future reference, on the off-chance you haven’t seen it: there’s a compilation of all the past scenarios here, handily rated by quality and steamrollability.)

. . . huh. I feel conflicted about this on aesthetic grounds—like, Reality doesn’t come with big flashing signs saying “EV-maxxing solution reached!” when you reach an EV-maxxing solution—but it does sound both convenient to have and easy to set up. Might try adding this functionality to the interactive for the next one; would be curious to hear what anyone else who happens to be reading this comment thinks.

Good to have you on board!
