Explanation:

Generally, there are three methods for estimating the inventory shown below:

1. First-in-first, the company is selling the old products in this way than the new ones, which means first selling the old products and then selling the new ones

2. Weighted average method: Weighted cost is measured by considering the total revenue and total purchase

3. Last-in-first-out: Contrary to the first-in-first-out process, the first sale of new goods, then selling of old goods.

A production facility employs 10 workers on the day shift, 8 workers on the swing shift, and 6 workers on the graveyard shift. A
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A What is the probability that all 4 selected workers will be the day shift?

B What is the probability that all 4 selected workers will be the same shift?

C What is the probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers.

A)

The total number of workers = 10 + 8 + 6 = 24

The probability that all 4 selected workers will be the day shift is given as:

P_a=\frac{C(10,4)}{C(24,4)}= \frac{210}{10626}=0.0198

C(n,r)=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}

B) The probability that all 4 selected workers will be the same shift (P_B) = probability that all 4 selected workers will be the day shift + probability that all 4 selected workers will be the swing shift + probability that all 4 selected workers will be the graveyard shift.

Hence:

P_B=\frac{C(10,4)}{C(24,4)}+\frac{C(8,4)}{C(24,4)}+\frac{C(6,4)}{C(24,4)}=0.0198+0.0066+0.0014=0.0278

C) The probability that at least two different shifts will be represented among the selected workers (P_C)= 1 - the probability that all 4 selected workers will be the same shift(P_B)

P_C=1-P_B\\\\P_C=1-0.0278\\\\P_C=0.972

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Break-even units = 66.67 units

Explanation:

<em>Break-even point is the level of activity that achieves no profit or loss. At this level profit is zero because the the total revenue is equal to total cost.</em>

<em>The break-even point is calculated as </em>

<em>Units to achieve target profit = (Total general fixed cost for the period + target profit)/ contribution per unit</em>

Contribution per unit = Selling Price - Variable cost

Contribution per unit = 15- (1+3+0.50) = 10.5

Fixed cost = 500 +( 50× 4) = 700

So the units requited to achieve break-even point:

Break-even point =  700/10.5

                            = 66.67 units
