The normal distribution is an appropriate model​ of: A. system reliability where components are connected in parallel. B. the full cost view of maintenance. C. the high initial failure rates of​ product, machine, or processes. D. the MTBF distribution of​ products, machines, or processes that have​ "settled in." E. system reliability where components are connected in series.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: the MTBF distribution of products, machines, or processes that have "settled in".

Explanation:

To begin with, the term of "normal distribution" refers to statistic model used in the field of probabilities and the most common characteristics are that they have a standard deviation of 1 and are all symmetrical. In the proper graphic the form of a normal distribution will be the one of a curve bell. Therefore that it is regularly seen in as an appropiate model of MTBF distribution regarding maintenance of products, machines or processes. Moreover, this distribution also known as Gaussian is motivated by the Central Limit Theorem.

For a given product demand, the time-series trend equation is 53 - 4 x. The negative sign on the slope of the equation:
a. is a mathematical impossibility.
b. is an indication that the forecast is biased, with forecast values lower than actual values.
c. is an indication that product demand is declining.
d. implies that the coefficient of determination will also be negative.
e. implies that the cumulative error will be negative.

Answers

Answer: is an indication that product demand is declining.

Explanation:

The negative sign on the slope of the time-series trend equation simply explains that the product demand is declining.

A negative slope indicates that two variables are negatively related which implies that when the value of x increases, rhen the value of y decreases, and vice versa. When putting this in a graph, the line falls when the line that's on the line graph shifts from left to right.

Round entry to the nearest dollar. Tolerance is ±4.
b) What uniform annual series of deposits (n = 10) would result in the same accumulated balance at the end of year 10? $
Round entry to the nearest dollar. Tolerance is ±4.

Answers

Answer:

a) The amount that could be withdrawn at t = 10 is $68,872.

b) The uniform annual series of deposits is $3,925.

Explanation:

a) What amount could be withdrawn at t = 10? $ Round entry to the nearest dollar. Tolerance is ±4.

Note: See the attached excel for the calculation of the future value in year 10.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Future value in year 10 = $68,872

Therefore, the amount that could be withdrawn at t = 10 is $68,872.

b) What uniform annual series of deposits (n = 10) would result in the same accumulated balance at the end of year 10? $ Round entry to the nearest dollar. Tolerance is ±4.

To calculate the uniform annual series of deposits, we use the formula for calculating the future value of ordinary annuity for as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount deposited in after 10 years = $68,872

M = Uniform annual series of deposits = ?

r = Interest rate = 12%, or 0.12

n = number of year = 10 years

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M , we have:

$68,872 = M * (((1 + 0.12)^10 - 1) / 0.12)

$68,872 = M * 17.5487350695351

M = $68,872 / 17.5487350695351

M = $3,925

Therefore, the uniform annual series of deposits is $3,925.

Calculate the annual cash flows of a $2 million, 10-year fixed-payment deferred annuity earning a guaranteed 8 percent per year if annual payments are to begin at the end of the sixth (6th) year.

Answers

Answer:

$437,946.42

Explanation:

Present Value of Deferred Annuity = $2,000,000

Value at the end of Year 5 = $2,000,000*(1.08)^5

Value at the end of Year 5 = $2,938,656.15

Calculation of Annual Payment from Annuity using the TVM

Annual payment = PMT [PV, FV, N, I]

Annual payment = PMT [2,938,656.15, 0, 10, 0.08]

Annual payment = $437,946.42

So, the Annual Payment from annuity is $437,946.42.

One reason why​ "protecting domestic​ jobs" is a poor argument against free trade is because A. there is little evidence that trade protection saves domestic jobs. B. the cost of protecting jobs is much higher than the value of the jobs. C. labor in other countries is not priced lower than U.S. labor. D. any outsourcing of jobs from the U.S. is completely offset by outsourcing of jobs from other countries.

Answers

Answer: Cost of protecting jobs is much higher than the value of the jobs.

Explanation:

Protectionism is when the local industries in a country are protected against foreign competition in order to help them grow.

One of the main ideas behind free trade is for the consumers to be provided with affordable and low prices goods when there's a free movement of goods between the countries.

It should be noted that an increase in the labour cost will also.bring about an increase in the value of jobs and this can result to the goods being sold at a higher price. Therefore the correct option is B "cost of protecting jobs is much higher than the value of the jobs".

Chester has negotiated a new labor contract for the next round that will affect the cost for their product Cozy. Labor costs will go from $1.76 to $2.26 per unit. Assume all period and variable costs as reported on Chester's Income Statement remain the same. If Chester were to pass on half the new labor costs to their customers, how many units of product Cozy would need to be sold next round to break even on the product

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question. The concluding parts are assuming the following;

Selling price per unit = $54

Current total variable cost = $24.50

Total fixed cost = $69,000

New variable cost will increase by ($2.26 - $1.76)/2 = $0.25

New variable cost will be = ($24.50 + $0.25) = $24.75

Contribution margin = ($54 - $24.75) = $29.25

New fixed cost = ($0.25 × 2,339) + $69,000 = $69,585

Note:

Old break even units = $69,000/$29.5 = 2,335 units

Therefore,

New break even units

= Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $69,585/$29.5

= 2,397 units

Cozy would have to sell 2,397 units as opposed to 2,335 units in order to break even.

Explanation:

to determine the appropriate bank to choose for a savings account, we have to calculate the effective annual interest rate. the bank with the highest effective annual interest rate would be chosen

Effective annual rate = (1 + APR / m ) ^m - 1

M = number of compounding

Bank A =  [ 1 + (0.08/365)^365 - 1 = 8.32%

Bank B = 8%

Bank C =  [ 1 + (0.07/365)^365 - 1 = 7.25%

Bank D =  [ 1 + (0.07/12)^365 - 1 =7.23%

Bank A has the highest effective annual rate and would be chosen

Peter Pundit has been hired by a (rather biased) news outlet to provide a cost benefit analysis of proposed nuclear power plant that refutes an earlier one done by environmentalists. The environmentalists’ analysis shows that the long term cleanup costs outweigh the short term benefits. In trying to counter the environmentalist’s report, Pundit would most likely…

Answer:

Use a higher discount rate and assume that cleanup would occur later.

Explanation:

When you are evaluating cash flows, the higher the discount rate, the lower the present value. Also, if the discount rate occurs farther away into the future, its present value will be lower. For example, a cash flow that occurs in 10 years will have a lower present value than a cash flow that occurs in 5 years.

At the end of the first year of operations, Meacham's balance sheet showed the following account balances: Accounts Receivable, $13,400; Inventory, $9,400; and Accounts Payable, $14,650. The company's income statement reports net income of $37,400, including depreciation expense of $10,400. Using only the given information, compute Meacham's net cash flow from operating activities using the indirect method.

Answers

Answer:

$39,650

Explanation:

Compute Meacham's net cash flow from operating activities using the indirect

Using this formula

Net cash flow from operating activities=Net income-Accounts Receivable-Inventory+Accounts Payable+depreciation expense

Let plug in the formula

Net cash flow from operating activities=$37,400 - $13,400 - $9,400 + $14,650 + $10,400

Net cash flow from operating activities= $39,650

Therefore Meacham's net cash flow from operating activities using the indirect is $39,650

A company budgeted unit sales of 204,000 units for January, 2020 and 240,000 units for February 2020. The company has a policy of having an inventory of units on hand at the end of each month equal to 30% of next month's budgeted unit sales. If there were 61,200 units of inventory on hand on December 31, 2019, how many units should be produced in January, 2020 in order for the company to meet its goals

Answers

Answer:

the number of units to be produced is 214,800 units

Explanation:

The computation of the number of units to be produced is given below;

= Budgeted units sales + required ending inventory - opening inventory

= 204,000 units + (240,000 units × 30%) - 61,200 units

= 204,000 units  + 72,000 units - 61,200 units

= 214,800 units

Hence, the number of units to be produced is 214,800 units

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct units could come

ring its first five years of operations, Della Manufacturing reports net income and pays dividends as follows. Year Net Income Dividends 1 $ 2,000 $ 1,700 2 2,600 1,600 3 2,600 2,200 4 5,900 2,900 5 8,800 3,100 Calculate the balance of retained earnings at the end of each year. Note that retained earnings will always equal $0 at the beginning of year 1.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The retained earnings will be calculated as:

= Begining retainers earnings + Net income - Dividend.

Year 1:

Retained earning = 0 + 2000 - 1700

= 300.

Year 2:

Retained earning = 300 + 2600 - 1600

= 1300

Year 3:

Retained earning = 1300 + 2600 - 2200

= 1700

Year 4:

Retained earning = 1700 + 5900 - 2900

= 4700

Year 5:

Retained earning = 4700 + 8800 - 3100

= 10400

SAP Inc. received a $1.5 million grant under its Small Business Innovation program. SAP invested the grant money and developed a system to remove metal contaminants from storm water in shipyards. The firm estimates that each shipyard spends $500,000 a year on storm water clean-up efforts. If SAP is able to sign up and retain four shipyards in the first year onwards, what is the present value (PV) of the project (net of investment) if the cost of capital for SAP is 14% per year

Answers

Answer: $12,785,714

Explanation:

Present value of project:

= Revenue / Cost of capital

= (500,000 * 4 shipyards) / 14%

= $14,285,714

Net of investment:

= 14,285,714 - 1,500,000

= $12,785,714
