The challenge of indirect benefits occurs when the social, economic, or environmental benefits of a company's sustainability commitments do not directly benefit primary customers or clients.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An indirect gain is a profit which can not be directly measured but is still appreciated-as opposed to the more readily quantified direct benefits like decreased headcount or increased revenue. The indirect advantages progress only when the customers or clients are also benefited, otherwise one or another day the failure of such tactics, destruction of  image of firm, etc would happen.

Labor productivity is the best illustration of a technology's indirect gain; greater performance does not necessarily contribute to the elimination of an ongoing cost element but is understood in the context that it helps workers to do their roles better and quicker.

An automobile battery manufacturer offers a 39/50 warranty on its batteries. The first number in the warranty code is the free-r
balandron [24]

Answer:

1)

If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace 8.23% of its batteries free of charge.

Option a) 8.23% is the correct option

2)

the required standard deviation is 3.8

Option a) 3.8 is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mean μ = 44

standard deviation σ = 3.6

if a battery fails within 39 months of purchase, the manufacturer replaces the battery at no charge to the consumer. If the battery fails after 39 months but within 50 months

1)

If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace_____ of its batteries free of charge

p( X < 39 ) = P( X-μ/σ < 39-μ/σ )

we substitute

= p( Z < ((39-44)/3.6 ))

= p( Z < -1.39 )

from standard normal table; p( Z < -1.39 ) = 0.08226 ≈ 0.0823

p( X < 39 ) = 0.0823 or 8.23%

Therefore, If the manufacturer's assumptions are correct, it would need to replace 8.23% of its batteries free of charge.

Option a) 8.23% is the correct option

2)

The company finds that it s replacing 9.34% of its batteries free of charge. It suspects that its assumption about the standard deviation of the life of its batteries is incorrect. A standard deviation of ______ results in a 9.34% replacement rate.

given that;

P( Z < x-μ/σ ) = 9.34%

⇒ P( Z < 39-44/σ ) = 0.0934 ----- let this be equation 1

now, from standard normal tables

∅( -1.32 ) = 0.0934   ---------- let this equation 2

so from equation 1 and 2

39-44/σ = -132

-5/σ = -1.32

σ  = -5 / - 1.32

σ  = 3.7879 ≈ 3.8

Therefore, the required standard deviation is 3.8

Option a) 3.8 is the correct answer
