7 0

Answer:

The expected value is equal to 0.176

Explanation:

mean = 36

rate per day = 48

P(x; 48)= e⁻⁴⁸( 48)³⁶/36!

E(X)= 1.425 e⁻²¹ 3.347 e⁶⁰/3.72e⁴¹

E(X)= 1.425 *3.347*e⁻²/3.72

E(X)= 1.3e⁻²= 0.1759= 0.176

The probability that an event occurs in a very short time interval is proportional to the length of the interval which is a positive quantity and may be interpreted as the average number of occurrences per unit of time.

The probability that two or more events occur in such a short interval is so small that it can be neglected.

events occurring in non overlapping intervals of time are statistically independent .

kap26 [50]

Answer:

$9.2 0

Explanation:

The calculation of the Finishing Department is shown below:-

Plant - wide overhead rate = Total overhead ÷ Total machine hour

= ($470,000 + $737,900) ÷ ($470,000 + 133,950)

Plant wide overhead rate = $2 per machine hour

Machine hour for product = 4.2 + 0.4

= $4.6 machine hour

Applied overhead = Machine hour for product × Plant wide overhead rate

= $4.6 × $2

= $9.2 0

Explanation: Since the company has $37,900 sitting in salaries and wages payable account at the end of the month and the payroll revealed that actual amount to be paid is $47,800, this means the company has a shortfall of $9,900 from the salaries and wages payable account. Therefore, this amount that was not accrued for would impact salary and wages expense by $9,900.
