Answer:

D) 356

Explanation:

ME = Z x √[(P x Q) / N]  

  • margin of error (ME) = 4%
  • 90% confidence level (Z) = 1.645 (by convention)
  • P = 70% of apples exceed Grade A
  • Q = 30% of apples do not exceed Grade A
  • N = sample size = ?  

0.04 = 1.645 x √[(0.7 x 0.3) / N]

0.04 = 1.645 x √(0.21 / N)

0.04 = 1.645 x 0.458 / √N

0.04 = 0.7538 / √N

√N = 0.7538 / 0.04 = 18.84

N = 18.84² = 355.2 ≈ 356 (there is no 0.2 apples, you must round up)

Anestetic [448]

Answer: Both stages with a capacity of 10 units per hour can be considered bottlenecks.

Explanation:

From the information given in the question, the best conclusion is that both stages with a capacity of 10 units per hour can be considered the bottlenecks.

It should be noted that the bottleneck in the chain of processes, is the one that has the limited capacity and this then reduces the capacity of the whole chain and slows down production.

The following three defense stocks are to be combined into a price-weighted stock index in January 2016 (perhaps a portfolio man
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

24.42%

Explanation:

(a) Index on the day immediately before the split (on 1 Jan 2017)

= (114+ 34 + 56 ) / 3

= 204/3 =68

Price of Douglas McDonnel stock just after the split (on 2 Jan 2017)

= 114/3 = $38

New divisor for the index

= (38 + 34 + 56)/68

= 128/68

=1.88

(b) Index on 1 Jan 2017 = 68

Index on 1 Jan 2018 = (41.08+ 48+ 70) / 1.88

= 159.08/1.88

=84.61

Hence:

Rate of return on the index for the year

2017

= (84.61 - 68) / 68 × 100

16.61/68×100

= 24.42%
