Answer:

if the equipment is purchased, The ROI will decrease by 4.04%

Explanation:

current controllable margin = 53000

current operating assets = $210000

current ROI = 53000/$210000

                    = 25.24%

The weight of a product is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.5 grams. If the production manager wants no more
Savatey [412]

Answer:

4.28 grams

Explanation:

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by the formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ \mu=mean,\sigma=standard \ deviation,\ x=raw\ score

Given that:

P(x > 5.1 grams) = 5%, x = 5.1 grams, σ = 0.5 grams

P(x > 5.1 grams) = 5%

P(x < 5.1 grams) = 100% - 5% = 95%

P(x < 5.1) = 95%

From the normal distribution table, 95% corresponds with a z score of 1.645. Hence:

1.64=\frac{5.1-\mu}{0.5}\\\\5.1-\mu=0.82\\\\\mu=4.28\ grams

If "consumers were to decrease their saving for retirement and businesses" were to decrease borrowing for new plants and machine
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: The supply of the loan able funds would decrease and so would it demand. It will also decrease.

<u>Explanation:</u>

With the decrease in the saving for the retirement purposes, the demand of the consumers would decrease for loan able funds. If the businesses also decrease the savings for new plant and machinery, it would decrease their demand for loan able funds.

Because of the decrease in the demand, the supply of the loan able funds will also decrease. But the effect of this on the real interest rates can not be said to be in a certain manner. It is uncertain.
