A project manager can identify the skills needed for the project from the:
Katarina [22]

Answer:

D - work breakdown structure

Explanation:

A detailed work breakdown structure should entail the job description, specific skills required, work experience recommended as well as the number of people required to carry out the task, should it require more than one. the project manager should then be able to identify the skills needed that he/she would have to go out and seek internally or from the public. Departmental personnel listings may not necessarily relate to the project and a budget will not state who does what, only the finances set aside for the project and its deliverables. A stakeholder meeting usually is for the end user stating what he/she expects the end product to be like. the project manager may be able to pick up a few skills requirements from that but that would only be surface level information. A detailed work breakdown structure will give him/her what is needed to plan, begin, continue and end the project efficiently.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

lump sum money= $52653

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Your child is going to college in 4 years.

Tuition fees amount to $16,000 a year for each of the 4 years.

You plan on depositing a lump sum of money today in a bank account paying 5% interest a year.

The first tuition fee payment you make will be 4 years from now.

FV= 16000*4= $64000

n= 4 years

i= 0.05

We need to find the annual payments:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 64000/1.05^4= $52653

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Explanation:

A perfect competitive indsutry is a characterised by many firms selling homogenous goods and services. Firms are price takers and there are no barriers to entry or exit of firms in the industry.

The supply curve of a perfectly competitive firm in the short run is the part of the marginal cost curve that lies above the average variable cost curve.

A perfect competition maximises profit where price equals marginal cost.

Consider three closed economies. In the first economy, households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the r
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

b. In the first economy, the spending multiplier is greater than in the second economy. In the third economy, the spending multiplier is undefined

Explanation:

This can be easily understood by going through some calculations in a spending multiplier formula.

WORKINGS

The formula for Spending Multiplier = \frac{1}{MPS}

Spending Multiplier

Economy 1: Multiplier = \frac{1}{0.5} = 2

Economy 2: Multiplier = \frac{1}{1} = 1

Economy 3: Multiplier = \frac{1}{0} = undefined

Note: MPS can be abbreviated as Marginal propensity to save

As we can see here economy 1 is 50% greater than economy 2 and economy 3 is undefined because they spend whole dollar they earn additionally.

On behalf of the above calculations,  option B is a perfect match!

Repair calls are handled by one repairman at a photocopy shop. Repair time, including travel time, is exponentially distributed,
wolverine [178]

Answer:

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

the system utilization = 42

the amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is  = 4.64 hours

the probability of two or more customers in the system = 0.1764

Explanation:

Given that :

Repair time, including travel time =  mean of 1.6 hours per call.

Requests for copier repairs = mean rate of 2.1 per eight-hour day

i.e mean rate R = 2.1/day

Time = 8 hours

thus; mean rate μ = 8 hours/ 1.6 hours = 5

(a)

Let the average number of customers awaiting repairs be I_i :

I_i = \dfrac{R^2}{\mu (\mu-R)}

I_i = \dfrac{2.1^2}{5 (5-2.1)}

I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{5 (2.9)}

I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{14.5}

\mathbf{I_i = 0.30}

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

(b) Determine system utilization.

The system utilization is determined as follows:

\delta = \dfrac{R}{\mu}

\delta = \dfrac{2.1}{5}

{\delta = 0.42}

\mathbf{\delta = 42}

(c) The amount of time during an eight-hour day that the repairman is not out on a call is calculated as :

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - \delta

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - 0.42

Percentage of Idle time = 0.58

However during an 8 hour day; The amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 0.58 × 8 = 4.64 hours

(d)

the probability of two or more customers in the system by assuming Poisson Distribution is:

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - (P₀+ P₁)

where;

P₀ = 0.58

P₁ = 0.58  × 0.42 = 0.2436

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - ( 0.58 + 0.2436)

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.8236

P(N ≥ 2) = 0.1764

Thus; the probability of two or more customers in the system is 0.1764
