Answer:

the price will grow to $ 507,571.77 If it continues with the same grow rate

Explanation:

first we solve for the rate:

2006 - 1895 = 111 years

Nominal (1+r)^{n} = FV\\150 (1+r)^{111} = 70,000\\\\r = \sqrt[111]{70,000 / 150 } -1

r =  0.06  

Now we apply this rate for the year 2040:

2040 - 2006 = 34 years

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 70,000.00

time 34.00

rate 0.06000

70000 \: (1+ 0.06)^{34} = Amount

Amount 507,571.77

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. In Ricci v. DeStefano, the Supreme Court ruled that an employer may not simply disregard a test based on unwanted results unless the test is shown to be biased or deficient.

Explanation:

Ricci v. DeStefano is a Supreme Court ruling of 2009, after a lawsuit by nineteen firefighters who claimed to have been discriminated against in terms of career development.  They denounced that they had been discriminated after having passed the admission tests and still had not been promoted, since no African-American candidate had passed the tests. They also denounced that they had not been promoted because the Fire Department did not want to promote a group of new recruits without including within it any member of racial minorities.

Finally, the Supreme Court established that said procedure violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, since in the case equal access to employment was not guaranteed (in this case, favoring minorities over white firefighters), for set different demands for purely racial reasons.

While JIT systems have many benefits, they:______.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Option A

Make the logistics function more complicated

Explanation:

The JIT inventory system refers to the Just In Time inventory system.

The just-in-time (JIT) inventory system is a management strategy where warehousing of parts is minimum. Rather, the raw material supply is aligned accurately with the production schedule of a particular good.

For example, in car production, the various car parts are supplied by various manufacturers at just the right time so they can be assembled to make up the car in the assembly line. The car assembly companies may not necessarily have to store raw materials in their ware house since the raw materials arrive "Just in time".

However, aligning the supply of raw materials accurately with production time, is a complicated task especially when a lot of manufacturers are involved and can need to plant down time if care is not taken. This makes the logistics function more complicated.

Answer:

c. Pie

Explanation:

In order to determine which product is the most profitable, we must calculate the contribution margin per hour:

                                              Cake               Pie                      Cookies

contribution margin               $18                 $11                          $3

production time                        3                    1                           .30

contribution margin p/hour    $6                 $11                         $10

Pie is the most profitable product, followed by cookies, and cakes are the less profitable products.
