When creating a data backup plan or policy, what five basic questions should be answered?

1 answer:

6 0

Each establishment, whether small or big, government-owned or private companies, always have to backup their files in case of emergencies. As you make your backup plan, you must come across these five basic key questions:

1. Are you backing up all your data? You have to sort your files to be backed up because storage can be limited.

2. How often is your data backed up? You must make sure to back up your data on a regular basis, if not day-to-day.

3. Who is responsible for your backups? For big companies, it is too big of a task for one person to shoulder. Usually, this is tackled by a department, usually the I.T. Department.

4. Do your backups actually work? You should test regularly if these back ups actually work by restoring data files every now and then.

5. Do you have right backup checks and balances in place? The I.T Department tackling backup plans is one thing. But there should also be checks and balances so that you have a backup of your backup. It's better to be safe than sorry.

Tim Urban, owner/manager of Urban's Motor Court in Key West, is considering outsourcing the daily room cleanup for his motel to

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Based on the given information related to costs for each of the options, the crossover point for Tim = 6,000 room nights (round your response to the nearest whole number). If the number of room nights is less than the crossover point, then OUTSOURCING (Duffy's Maid Service) is the best option available to Tim. Based on the given room nights that Tim expects to rent (18, 250), the best option is to keep doing the service INSOURCING (doing it himself).

Explanation:

Currently, before outsourcing, Tim's total cost = $228,125 + $61,000 = $289,125. On average, he spends $15.84247 per room.

The Duffy's Maid Service offer would represent a total cost of $337,625 + $25,000 = $362,625 for the same occupation level.

the crossover point for Tim:

12.5x + 61,000 = 18.5x + 25,000

36,000 = 6x

x = 6,000 room nights

(6,000 x 12.50) + 61,000 = (6,000 x 18.50) + 25,000 = $136,000

The expected return on Natter Corporation's stock is 14%. The stock's dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 8%, and

AysviL [449]

Answer:

d. The stock price is expected to be $54 a share one year from now.

Explanation:

Using dividend discount model(DDM), find next year's dividend;

P0 = D1/ (r-g)

50 = D1/(0.14-0.08)

50 = D1/ 0.06

Multiply both sides by 0.06 to solve for D1;

50 *0.06 = D1

3 = D1

Next, year's dividend is $3

Dividend yield = D1/P0;

= 3/ 50 = 0.06 or 6% hence choices A& B are incorrect.

Next year's price; P1 = P0(1+g)

P1 = 50(1.08) = $54 hence choice D is correct

Answer:

Which of the following is a pair of events which are mutually exclusive?

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

C. Sleeping in late and waking up early.

Explanation:

Two or more events are said to be mutually exclusive if and only if they can't happen at the same time.

Going with the above brief analysis, we.can easily say which of the pair of events is not mutually exclusive.

1. Rolling a 4 on a six-sided die and on a four-sided die

It's 100% possible to have an outcome of 4 when a 4 sided die and when a 6 sided die are rolled, whether at the same time or on different occasions. So, this pair of events are not mutually exclusive

2. Making rice and making corn

This pair of events are not mutually exclusive because it's possible to make rice and corn at the same time either together as a meal or separately using different cooking utensils

3. Sleeping in late and waking up early

This pair of events are mutually exclusive. This is so because literally, it's not possible to sleep late and wake up early at the same time.

You sleep early to wake early and you sleep late to wake late.

4. Going to work and riding the bus.

This pair of events are not mutually exclusive because they can occur at the same time when you go to work a bus.

So, option C is the correct answer
