Answer:
Given that Program instructions consists of:
- 60% floating point multiply
- 20% floating point divide
- 20% other instructions
Amdahl's law states that:
Execution time affected by improvement = (Execution time after improvement/ Amount of improvement) + (Execution time unaffected)
Assuming initially that floating point multiply, divide and other instructions have same clocks per instruction (CPI).
Part (a)
New execution time after improvement with multiply = (60) / 8 + (20 + 20) = 47.5
New execution time after improvement with Divide = (20) / 3 + (60 + 20) = 86.67
New system should be 4x faster which means new execution time should be below = 100/ 4 = 25.
Therefore, Management's goal can NOT be achieved by making the improvement with multiply or divide alone.
Part (b)
New execution time after improvement with multiply and divide = (60 / 8) + (20 / 3) + 20 = 34.17
Speed up = execution time of original machine / Execution time of new machine = (100 / 34.17) = 2.93
Therefore, new machine is 2.93 times faster than original machine.
Answer: B. . The business address can be used for Customer Identification purposes and the account can be opened
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that a new customer wants to open an account at a firm and that when he was asked for his street address, he said that he will be moving soon to a different apartment complex and wants to use his business address.
Since the customer will be moving to a new apartment and therefore may not yet know his street address, the customer can use his business address for identification purpose. Therefore, the customer can open the account.
Answer:
b. 126,500.
Explanation:
The equivalent units of production using weighted-average method will be,
Total units finished during the year 106,000.
Work in Process inventory 50% complete (41,000 units *50%) 20,500 units.
Total equivalent units of production during the period = Total units finished during the year + Work in process units completed
Total equivalent units of production during the period = 106,000 + 20,500
Total equivalent units of production during the period = 126,500.
Answer: the correct answer is A. Deductible temporary difference
