What is one of the most critical areas in a quality control program?

A small market orders copies of a certain magazine for its magazine rack each week. Let X 5 demand for the magazine, with pmf Su

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the demand for the magazine, the pmf for X is given by:

X 1 2 3 4 5 6

P(X) 1/15 2/15 3/15 4/15 3/15 2/15

3 magazines

For this case the total spent is 2*3 = $ 6

And the net revenue for this case would be:

$4-$6 = -$2 , X=1 (demand 1)

$4*2-$6 = $2 , X=2 (demand 2)

$4*3-$6 = $6 , X=3 (demand 3)

For the values of X=4,5,6 the net revenue will be $6 since the number of magazines is 3

And the expected value for the net revenue would be:

$E(R) = \frac{1}{15} *(-2) +\frac{2}{15} *(2) +\frac{3}{15}*(6) + \frac{4}{15}*(6) +\frac{3}{15}*(6) +\frac{2}{15}*(6) = \frac{74}{15}=4.93$

4 magazines

For this case the total spent is 2*4 = $ 8

And the net revenue for this case would be:

$4-$8 = -$4 , X=1 (demand 1)

$4*2-$8 = $0 , X=2 (demand 2)

$4*3-$8 = $4 , X=3 (demand 3)

$4*4-$8 = $8 , X=4 (demand 4)

For the values of X=5,6 the net revenue will be $8 since the number of magazines is 4

And the expected value for the net revenue would be:

$E(R) = \frac{1}{15} *(-4) +\frac{2}{15} *(0) +\frac{3}{15}*(4) + \frac{4}{15}*(8) +\frac{3}{15}*(8) +\frac{2}{15}*(8) = \frac{80}{15}=5.33$

As as we can see we have a higher expected value for the case with 4 magazines.

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market is 17%. A share of stock sells fo

Ugo [173]

Answer:

New price (P1) = $72.88

Explanation:

Given:

Risk-free rate of interest (Rf) = 5%

Expected rate of market return (Rm) = 17%

Old price (P0) = $64

Dividend (D) = $2

Beta (β) = 1.0

New price (P1) = ?

Computation of expected rate on return:

Expected rate on return (r) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(17% - 5%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(12%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 12%

Expected rate on return (r) = 17%

Computation:

Expected rate on return (r) = (D + P1 - P0) / P0

17% = ($2 + P1 - $64) / $64

0.17 = (2 + P1 - $64) / $64

10.88 = P1 - $62

New price (P1) = $72.88

Windsor Inc. had beginning inventory of $11,700 at cost and $19,700 at retail. Net purchases were $130,016 at cost and $169,800

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$24,779

Explanation:

In order to calculating the ending inventory using the conventional retail inventory method. we required to do the following computations which are shown below:

Using cost method

Goods available for sale:

= Beginning inventory + Purchases

= $11,700 + $130,016

= $141,716

Using retail method

Ending inventory

= Beginning inventory + Purchases + Net markups - Net markdowns - sales revenue

= $19,700 + $169,800 + $101,00 - $6,800 - $157,900

= $34,900

Now

Cost to retail ratio = $141,716 ÷ ($19,700 + $169,800 + $101,00)

= $141,716 ÷ $199,600

= 0.71

So,

Estimated ending inventory at cost:

= Estimated ending inventory at retail × Cost to retail ratio

= $34,900 × 0.71

= $24,779
