Decision Point:
Employee 2: Sam
You look at the second employee, Sam. His resume indicates that he is an experienced programmer and a stickler for detail, but is accustomed to being given clear direction on a project. Also, when he’s working on a project he is focused on that project and doesn’t want to be interrupted. Based on this information, what team responsibilities would Sam find difficult to perform?

Answer:

The answer is b as he should order 1045 copies to maximize his profits.

Explanation:

As

[tex]CR=\frac{C_{u} }{C_{o}+C_{u} }[/tex]

So,

Given :

[tex]C_{o} =20-14=6[/tex]

[tex]C_{u} =28-20=8[/tex]

Thus

[tex]CR=\frac{8 }{6+8 }[/tex]

     [tex]=57.14\%[/tex]

thus      [tex]Q^{*} =Norm.inu(0.5714,1000,250)[/tex]

                 [tex]=1045.0032[/tex]

                  ≈ [tex]1045[/tex]

Which is option b.

Using the Newsvendor model, Dan should order 1045 copies of the book to maximize expected profit.  thus the correct answer is b.

To determine the optimal number of copies Dan should order to maximize expected profit, we use the Newsvendor model. The critical ratio in this model helps in finding the order quantity that balances the cost of understocking and overstocking.

Step 1: Calculate the overstocking cost (Co) and understocking cost (Cu).

Step 2: Find the critical ratio (CR): CR = Cu / (Co + Cu) = $8 / ($6 + $8) = $8 / $14 = 0.5714

Step 3: Use the critical ratio to find the Z-score corresponding to 0.5714, which is approximately 0.19.

Step 4: Calculate the optimal order quantity (Q*) using the Z-score, mean, and standard deviation of the demand distribution:

Since we cannot order a fraction of a book, we'll round to the nearest whole number, 1048. However, the closest option given is 1045.

Therefore, Dan should order 1045 copies to maximize his expected profit.

Lake Sales needs a sales volume of at least $2,033,333.33 to yield an operating profit of $240,000. This calculation was reached by first identifying the company's fixed costs and then using this information along with the contribution margin ratio and desired operating profit to find the required sales volume.

The question first requires us to understand the definition of contribution margin ratio. It is defined as the profit per item or unit sold after variable costs are deducted from the sales price, shown as a percentage. In this case, the contribution margin ratio is 30% which means that 30% of each dollar in sales is contributing to cover the fixed costs and the remaining to profit.

Given that Lake Sales had operating profits of $180,000 on sales of $2,200,000, we can first find the fixed costs. Fixed costs can be calculated as sales - (sales * contribution margin ratio) - operating profits, which equates to $2,200,000 - (0.3 * $2,200,000) - $180,000 = $370,000.

Knowing this, we can calculate the sales volume required to reach a certain operating profit. The formula is Fixed costs + Desired operating profit / Contribution margin ratio, substituting gives us the required sales volume as ($370,000 + $240,000) / 0.3 = $2,033,333.33. Therefore, Lake Sales would need a sales volume of at least $2,033,333.33 to yield an operating profit of $240,000.

Answer:

It is  better to receive the $500,000 now.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Option 1:

Receive $500,000 today.

Option 2:

Three annual payments of $100,000, $200,000 and $300,000 at the end of each year.

Annual interest of 9%.

There are two different ways of determining which option is the best. We can calculate the present value of the three payments and compare them to $500,000, or calculate the final value at an interest rate of 9% compounded annually.

Present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

The present value of the second option:

PV= 300,000/1.09^3 + 200,000/1.09^2 + 100,000/1.09= $491,734.17

Final value:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

Option 1:

FV= 500,000*(1.09)^3= $647,514.5

Option 2:

FV= 100,000*1.09^2 + 200,000*1.09 + 300,000= $636,810

In both ways, option 1 is better.

Answer:

The remaining shares should be carried at its fair value.

In this case then,  the fair value of the remaining shares = $260,000*(1-0.5) = $130,000

Explanation:

According to IFRS 3(Revised), A certain group may decide to sell its controlling interest in a subsidiary but retain significant influence in the form of an associate, or retain only a financial asset. If it does so, the retained interest is remeasured to fair value, and any gain or loss compared to book value is recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal of the subsidiary.

Final answer:

The carrying value of the remaining shares after Panda Corporation sells half of its Squirrel Inc. shares is $90,000, which is half of the original carrying value because the carrying value per share remains unchanged.

Explanation:

To determine the carrying value of the remaining shares after Panda Corporation sells half of its shares in Squirrel Inc., we need to calculate how the sale affects the original carrying value. The carrying value of the investment was $180,000 for 90% ownership. Since Panda Corporation is selling half of its stocks, it now owns 45% of Squirrel Inc. The sale does not change the carrying value per share; therefore, the total carrying value of the remaining shares is simply half of the original carrying value due to the sale of half the ownership. Hence, the carrying value of the remaining shares is $180,000 / 2 = $90,000.

Answer and Explanation:

A. Price elasticity of demand

Price(P0) = $80 , Q0 = 20

Price(P1) = $100 , Q1 = 18

Price elasticity of demand =

[tex]\frac{\frac{Q1-Q0}{\frac{Q1+Q0}{2} } }{\frac{P1-P0}{\frac{P1+P0}{2} } } \\\\\frac{\frac{18-20}{\frac{18+20}{2} } }{\frac{100-80}{\frac{100+80}{2} } }\\\\\frac{\frac{-2}{\frac{38}{2} } }{\frac{20}{\frac{180}{2} } }\\\\\frac{\frac{-2}{19} }{\frac{20}{90} } }\\\\-0.47[/tex]

Price elasticity of demand = 0.47

B. Price elasticity of supply

Price(P0) = $80 , Q0 = 16

Price(P1) = $100 , Q1 = 18

Price elasticity of supply =

[tex]\frac{\frac{Q1-Q0}{\frac{Q1+Q0}{2} } }{\frac{P1-P0}{\frac{P1+P0}{2} } } \\\\\frac{\frac{18-16}{\frac{18+16}{2} } }{\frac{100-80}{\frac{100+80}{2} } }\\\\\frac{\frac{2}{\frac{34}{2} } }{\frac{20}{\frac{180}{2} } }\\\\\frac{\frac{2}{17} }{\frac{20}{90} } }\\\\0.53[/tex]

Price elasticity of supply = 0.53

C. The point , where Demand and supply is equal called equilibrium price

So , $100 is equilibrium price.

D. if market price is less then equilibrium price , it is effective So, shortage (20-16) 4 units

a. The price elasticity of demand when the price is $80 is -0.4 and when the price is $100 is -0.08. b. The price elasticity of supply when the price is $80 and $100 is 0.5. c. The equilibrium price and quantity can be determined from the graph by identifying the point at which the demand and supply curves intersect, and from the table by finding the price where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied.

a. To calculate the price elasticity of demand, we use the formula:

Elasticity of Demand = (% Change in Quantity Demanded) / (% Change in Price)

Using the given information, at a price of $80, the quantity demanded is 20 million and at a price of $100, the quantity demanded is 18 million. The % change in quantity demanded is -10% and the % change in price is 25%. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Elasticity of Demand ($80) = (-10%) / (25%) = -0.4

Elasticity of Demand ($100) = (-2%) / (25%) = -0.08

b. To calculate the price elasticity of supply, we use the same formula:

Elasticity of Supply = (% Change in Quantity Supplied) / (% Change in Price)

Using the given information, at a price of $80, the quantity supplied is 16 million and at a price of $100, the quantity supplied is 18 million. The % change in quantity supplied is 12.5% and the % change in price is 25%. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Elasticity of Supply ($80) = (12.5%) / (25%) = 0.5

Elasticity of Supply ($100) = (12.5%) / (25%) = 0.5

c. The equilibrium price and quantity can be determined from the graph by identifying the point at which the demand and supply curves intersect. This represents the point where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied, and thus the market is in equilibrium. From the table, we can determine the equilibrium price and quantity by finding the price where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied.

d. To determine the quantities demanded and supplied at a price of $120, we can use the table. At a price of $120, the quantity demanded is 16 million and the quantity supplied is 20 million. Since the quantity demanded is less than the quantity supplied, there will be a surplus. The size of the surplus is the difference between the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded, which is 20 - 16 = 4 million.

To calculate the yield to maturity and yield to call of Thatcher Corporation's bonds, we need to use the present value formula. YTM refers to the rate of return an investor will earn if they hold the bond until it matures, while YTC calculates the rate of return if the bond is called by the issuer.

To calculate the yield to maturity (YTM) and yield to call (YTC) of Thatcher Corporation's bonds, we need to use the present value formula. YTM refers to the rate of return an investor will earn if they hold the bond until it matures and receive all the coupon payments as well as the face value of the bond. YTC, on the other hand, calculates the rate of return if the bond is called by the issuer.

The formula to calculate the present value of the bond is:

PV = (C/r) * (1 - (1+r)^(-n)) + (F/(1+r)^n)

Where:

By plugging in the given values, we can solve for YTM and YTC.

https://brainly.com/question/34569360

#SPJ3

The YTM is approximately 6.68% annually, and the YTC is approximately 5.78% annually.

Thatcher Corporation's bonds will mature in 10 years, have a face value of $1,000, an 8% coupon rate paid semiannually, and a current price of $1,100. The bonds are callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,050.

Calculating Yield to Maturity (YTM)

The formula for yield to maturity involves solving for the interest rate that equates the present value of all future cash flows from the bond (coupon payments and face value) to the current price of the bond.

The semiannual coupon payment is $40 ($1,000 × 8% / 2). Let's denote the number of periods (N) as 20 (10 years × 2) and the current bond price as $1,100. The yield to maturity must be calculated iteratively or using a financial calculator:

Calculating Yield to Call (YTC)

For the yield to call, we must find the rate that matches the present value of the bond being called in 5 years:

YTC ≈ 2.89% per semiannual period, meaning the YTC is approximately 5.78% annually.

Answer:

The equivalent units for direct materials are 43,240.

Explanation:

Given:

During a​ period, 40,200 units were completed and​ 3,200 units were in ending WIP Inventory. Ending WIP was​ 95% complete for direct materials.

Now, to find the equivalent units for direct​ materials.

Complete units = 40,200.

Ending WIP (work in progress) Inventory = 3,200.

As, ending WIP was​ 95% complete for direct materials.

Thus, ending WIP Inventory = 95% of 3,200.

= [tex]\frac{95}{100} \times 3,200[/tex]

[tex]=0.95\times 3,200[/tex]

[tex]=\$3,040.[/tex]

Now, to get the equivalent units for direct​ materials by adding complete units and ending WIP Inventory:

[tex]Complete\ units\ +\ ending\ WIP\ Inventory[/tex]

[tex]=40,200+3,040[/tex]

[tex]=43,240.[/tex]

Therefore, the equivalent units for direct materials are 43,240.

Final answer:

The equivalent units for direct materials are calculated by adding the fully completed units with the percentage completion of the ending WIP inventory. In this case, with 40,200 units completed and 3,200 units 95% complete for direct materials, the equivalent units for direct materials would be 43,240 units.

Explanation:

To calculate the equivalent units for direct materials, we need to take into account both the units that were completed during the period as well as the units that were in the ending Work-In-Process (WIP) Inventory. The completed units are already 100% complete, so all of those units count towards the equivalent units for direct materials. For the ending WIP inventory, since they are 95% complete for direct materials, we only count 95% of those units.

The formula to calculate the equivalent units for direct materials is as follows:
Equivalent Units for Direct Materials = (Units Completed) + (% Complete of direct materials for Ending WIP Inventory * Units in Ending WIP Inventory).

Using the numbers given:
Equivalent Units for Direct Materials = 40,200 + (0.95 * 3,200).

We then perform the calculation:
Equivalent Units for Direct Materials = 40,200 + 3,040 = 43,240 equivalent units for direct materials.

MYRIAM'S STUDY EXEMPLIFIES ANTHROPOLOGY.

Myriam's research, which analyzes gender roles in management across the United States and Japan, demonstrates a social studies approach to understanding occupational sorting, gender stratification, and cultural influences on leadership behavior.

Myriam's study is a clear example of cross-cultural analysis in the field of social studies, particularly focusing on gender roles in management positions within two different cultures, the United States and Japan. By surveying male and female managers in each country, Myriam is aiming to understand how cultural norms affect the behavior and potentially the leadership styles of managers in their respective countries. This kind of study dives into concepts such as occupational sorting, gender stratification, and the glass ceiling phenomenon which are pertinent to the understanding of gender roles in professional settings.

Research has shown that there are inherent differences in the way men and women may perform in management roles. Women, for example, have been found more likely to practice an interpersonal style of leadership, focusing on the morale and welfare of employees, whereas men may be more task-oriented. However, these differences are often less pronounced within the organizational studies than they are in laboratory or survey research, suggesting that cultural expectations and organizational culture both play a significant role in shaping managerial behavior.

Cultural anthropologists and other social scientists study how people interact with the gender norms and practices within their societies. This involves exploring how gender identities are shaped within various realms like politics, law, and medicine, and how individuals might confirm to or transform the gendered expectations prevalent in their cultures. Myriam's study draws on these concepts, aiming to offer insights into how gender roles are enacted and potentially vary between different cultural contexts.

Answer:

(1) 142.37;  2.56 days

(2) 9.93; 36.76 days

(3) 107.52; 3.39 days

Explanation:

(1) For WalCo,

Average accounts receivables:

= (Opening AR + Closing AR) ÷ 2

= ($1,735 + $2,682) ÷ 2

= 2,208.5

Receivables turnover ratio:

= Net Sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

= $314,427 ÷ 2,208.5

= 142.37

Average collection period:

= 365 ÷ Receivables turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 142.37

= 2.56 days

(2) For TarMart,

Average accounts receivables:

= (Opening AR + Closing AR) ÷ 2

= ($5,766 + $6,294) ÷ 2

= 6,030

Receivables turnover ratio:

= Net Sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

= $59,878 ÷ 6,030

= 9.93

Average collection period:

= 365 ÷ Receivables turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 9.93

= 36.76 days

(3)  For CostGet,

Average accounts receivables:

= (Opening AR + Closing AR) ÷ 2

= ($549 + $585) ÷ 2

= 567

Receivables turnover ratio:

= Net Sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

= $60,963 ÷ 567

= 107.52

Average collection period:

= 365 ÷ Receivables turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 107.52

= 3.39 days

Answer:

a) 0.97 b) 0.9991 c) 0.008518

Explanation:

a) for the computer to work all modules must work so the lowest probsabiltiy of any one of the modules will determine the reliability of the computer.

b) Probabiltiy that 1st computer works+ Probability that 1st computer fails × Probability that back-up works

= 0.97+ 0.97×0.03

=0.9991

c) Probabiltiy that 1st computer works+ Probability that 1st computer fails× Probability that switch works× Probability that back-up computer works

=0.97+0.03×0.98×0.97

=0.998518

The system's reliability is calculated by multiplying the reliabilities of each module in the system. The reliability of a backup computer is calculated by considering the likelihood of one or the other working. If a switch is included, its reliability is considered as a component in a series system with the backup computer.

This question pertains to system reliability. In essence, you are dealing with a series-parallel system. For a. the first step is to compute the reliability of the computer. To do this, simply multiply the reliabilities of each module together because for a system to be reliable, all the modules must work:

Reliability = 0.97 * 0.97 * 0.99 = 0.931129

For b. knowing that the backup system will step in if the first computer fails, the total system reliability is the probability that either the first computer works, or it doesn’t, but then the backup works. The reliability of either the primary or backup computer working is calculated by:

R = 1 - (1 - R_primary) * (1 - R_backup)

This is a simple equation derived from probability theory and we can plug in the computed reliability from part a.:

R = 1 - (1 - 0.931129) * (1 - 0.931129) = 0.996122

For c. if there's a switch to activate the backup, both the switch and the backup computer must function. This is another series system, so you'll multiply them together to get the overall reliability:

Overall reliability = 0.98 * 0.996122 = 0.97636

Complete question:

Your firm is a U.K.-based importer of bicycles. You have placed an order with an Italian firm for €1,000,000 worth of bicycles. Payment (in euro) is due in 12 months. Detail a strategy using futures contracts that will hedge your exchange rate risk. Have an estimate of how many contracts of what type and maturity

A. Go short 100 12-month euro futures contracts; and short 80 12-month pound futures contracts.

B. Go long 100 12-month euro futures contracts; and long 80 12-month pound futures contracts.

C.Go long 100 12-month euro futures contracts; and short 80 12-month pound futures contracts.

D. Go short 100 12-month euro futures contracts; and long 80 12-month pound futures contracts.E. None of the above

Answer:

Go short 100 , 12-month euro futures contracts; and long 80, 12-month pound futures contracts. Option c is correct.

Explanation:

Buy €1m (a long position) forward using futures contracts, at the 12-month forward rate of $1.60 per €1 pay

$1,600,000 = €1,000,000 ×$1.60/€1.

At the 12-month forward rate of $2/≤this is worth ≤800,000.

Go short pound futures contracts.

so , Go long 100 12-month euro futures contracts; and short 80 12-month pound futures contracts.

Answer:

Total cost= $190,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total manufacturing costs are $170,000 when 20,000 packages are produced.

The total variable costs are $80,000 at 20,000 units.

First, we need to determine the unitary variable cost and total fixed costs.

Unitary variable cost= total variable cost/ number of units

Unitary variable cost= 80,000/20,000= $4 per unit

Total fixed costs= total cost - total variable cost

Total fixed costs= 170,000 - 80,000= $90,000

Now, we need to determine the total cost of 25,000 units.

Total cost= 90,000 + 4*25,000= $190,000

Answer:

15.8%

Explanation:

Process Cycle Efficiency= Value Added time/ Lead time

Value-added time is the time spent process and activities on improving or adding usefulness to a product.

Lead time is the time between the order received and order supplied to the customer

Here,

PCE= (3)/(2.5+5+10+1.5) ×100

PCE=15.8%

The processing cycle efficiency for the order mentioned in the context is 15.8%.

The "Value Added Ratio," also known as Process Cycle Efficiency, is a metric that indicates how much time was spent adding value to a process.

 The time spent on processes and activities aimed at improving or increasing the usefulness of a product is referred to as value-added time.  

The lead time is referred to as the time between receiving an order and delivering it to the customer.  

The given information in the context is:

Value Added time = 3

  Lead time is calculated by adding all the times from the process of receiving the order to the time of completing the orders.    

Computation of Process Cycle Efficiency:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Process Cycle Efficiency}&= \frac{\text{Value Added time}}{\text{Lead time}}\\\text{Process Cycle Efficiency}&= \frac{3}{2.5+5+10+1.5}\times 100\\\text{Process Cycle Efficiency}&= 15.8\%\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the Process Cycle Efficiency is 15.8%.
