Answer:

Fixed path equipment ;which move in a fixed path. Conveyors, monorail devices, chutes and pulley drive equipment belong to this category. A slight variation in this category is provided by the overhead crane, which though restricted, can move materials in any manner within a restricted area by virtue of its design.

Variable path equipment; have no restrictions in the direction of movement although their size is a factor to be given due consideration trucks, forklifts mobile cranes and industrial tractors belong to this category. Forklifts are available in many ranges, they are maneuverable and various attachments are provided to increase their versatility.

Massena Corporation reported the following data for the month of February:

Elodia [21]

Answer:

$186,700

Explanation:

The computation of adjusted cost of goods sold is shown below:-

Before that we need to do the following calculations

Raw material consumed = Beginning raw material + Raw material purchases - Ending raw materials - Raw materials included in manufacturing overhead costs as indirect materials

= $40,000 + $63,000 - $24,000 - $5,000

= $74,000

Total manufacturing cost = Beginning work in progress + Raw material consumed + Direct labor cost + Manufacturing overhead cost - Ending work in progress

= $23,000 + $74,000 + $73,700 + $48,000 - $17,000

= $201,700

Unadjusted Cost of goods sold = Raw materials + Total manufacturing cost - Ending finished goods

= $50,000 + $201,700 - $72,000

= $179,700

Adjusted COGS = Unadjusted Cost of goods sold + Underapplied overhead

= $179,700 + ($55,000 - $48,000)

= $179,700 + $7,000

= $186,700

The daily demand for parts from a machining workcell JMB to an assembly workcell is 1,600 units. The average processing time is

Karolina [17]

Answer:

Daily demand for parts = 1600 units

Avg processing time = 25 seconds.

Capacity of a container = 250 units

Waiting time of a container before the JMB = 6 hours

Number of containters currently deployed = 10

Solution:

Total number of parts carried by the containter = 10 x 250 = 2500 parts.

Total numbers carried in excess as safety stock = 2500-1600 = 900

Percentage of safety stock = (900/1600) x 100 = 56.25%

If one container is removed total parts carried = 2250 units

Processing time at machine for 250 parts after loading in JMB = 250 x 25 seconds = 1.736 hours, but it has to wait for another 4.26 hours for the next container to be loaded because of the waiting time of the containter is 6 hours.

Processing time at machine for 1600 parts = 1600 x 25 seconds = 11.11 hours

Number of containers required for 1600 parts = 1600/250= 6.4 ~ 7 containters

Waiting time of 7 containers = 7 x 4.26 = 29.82 hours.

If one of the containers has to be removed 1600 parts has to be carried in 6 containers ie., 29.82hours - 6 hours = 23.82hours

Waiting time per container before loading = 23.82/6 = 3.97 hours.

Reduced Total waiting time of the container = 3.97 hours + the processing time of 250 parts = 3.97 + 1.736 =5.7hours ~ 5 hours and 42 minutes

Your sister just deposited $14,000 into an investment account. She believes that she will earn an annual return of 10.5 percent

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

You must deposit $14,824.07

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sister:

Investment= $14,000

Interest rate= 10.5%

Number of years= 9

You:

Investment=?

Interest rate= 9.8%

Number of years= 9

First, we need to calculate the future value of your sister:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 14,000*(1.105^9)= $34,386.55

Now, we can determine your deposit:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 34,386.55/ (1.098^9)= $14,824.07

Other things the same, an increase in the U.S. interest rate causes U.S. net capital outflow to a. rise, so supply in the market

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

b. rise, so demand in the market for foreign-currency exchange shifts right.

Explanation:

An increase in the interest rates leads to a rise in the capital outflow as savings and investment lead to more net capital outflow.

This is the movement of the assets on the company and is considered to be bad for the economy and leads to undesirable changes in the supply of the foreign currency as a shift in the demands of the consumers. This may result in political and economic instability.
