Available options:

A. determine the sequence in which customers will be called on.

B. use existing transportation facilities.

C. minimize non-selling time.

D. determine duration of sales calls.

E. provide salespeople with an opportunity to plan their own routes and schedules

Answer:

Option C. Minimizing non-selling time.

Explanation:

The reason is that sales reps must lower their non selling time as this makes them inefficient for the company and would also increase their loss of time and commission. So every sales representative acknowledges his primary goal to decrease the non selling time which means he is trying to make sale.

What is the PV of an annuity of 1,000 dollars

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 1000        (proceeds from the rent)

time  240         (20 year x 12 month per year)

rate 0.01          ( 12% / 12 months = 1%)

1000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.01)^{-240} }{0.01} = PV\\

What is the effective annual yield of 6% compounded semi-annually? Answer in the percent format. Round to the nearest hundredth
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

effective annual yield = 6.09

Explanation:

given data

rate r = 6%

compounded semi-annually

solution

we get here effective annual yield that is express as

effective annual yield = (1+\frac{r}{n} )^n - 1   ..................1

here n is 2 for semi-annually

put here value and we get

effective annual yield = (1+\frac{0.06}{2} )^2 - 1

effective annual yield = 0.0609

effective annual yield = 6.09 %

effective annual yield = 6.09

Tema [17]

Answer:

a) It is expected that 8 African-Americans get promotions.

b) There is a 8.6% probability that 5 African-Americans get promotions.

c) There is a 16.2% probability that at five or less African-Americans get promotions.

d) The company may be accused of racial discrimination because the ammount of promotions given to African-Americans is much less than expected if there were no discrimination. The expected value, if there is no discrimination, of having more than 5 promotions for African American employees is 84%.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete.

Complete question:

<em>In the workplace, racial discrimination is a very serious issue. Consider a company in which 20% of the employees are African-American. At the end of the year, promotions are awarded to a group of employees. Out of the 40 promotions awarded, five are African-American. Given that the awarding follows the binomial distribution, B(40,.2).</em>

<em />

<em>a) How many African-Americans would you expect to get promotions? </em>

<em> b) What is the probability that five African-Americans receive promotions? </em>

<em> c) What is the probability that five or fewer African-Americans receive promotions? </em>

<em> d) Do you think the company is suspect of racial discrimination? Explain your thinking.</em>

<em />

a) As this situation can be modeled by a binomial distribution B(40,0.2), the expected number of African-Americans that get promotions can be calculated as the expected value of the binomial distribution:

X\sim B(40,0.2)\\\\E(X)=np=40*0.2=8

It is expected that 8 African-Americans get promotions.

b) Accordingly to the binomial distribution, we have:

P(X=5)=\frac{40!}{5!35!}*(0.2)^5*(0.8)^{35}=658008*0.00032*0.0004= 0.086

There is a 8.6% probability that 5 African-Americans get promotions.

c) We have to calculate the probabilities for X=0,1,2,3,4 and 5.

P(X\leq5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\\\P(X=0)=\frac{40!}{0!40!}*0.2^0*0.8^{40}=1*1*0.00013=0\\\\P(X=1)=\frac{40!}{1!39!}*0.2^1*0.8^{39}=40*0.2*0.00017=0.001\\\\P(X=2)=\frac{40!}{2!38!}*0.2^2*0.8^{38}=780*0.04*0.00021=0.007\\\\P(X=3)=\frac{40!}{3!37!}*0.2^3*0.8^{37}=9880*0.008*0.00026=0.021\\\\P(X=4)=\frac{40!}{4!36!}*0.2^4*0.8^{36}=91390*0.0016*0.00032=0.047\\\\P(X=5)=\frac{40!}{5!35!}*0.2^5*0.8^{35}=658008*0.00032*0.00041=0.086

P(X\leq5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\P(X\leq5)=0+0.001+0.007+0.021+0.047+0.086=0.162

There is a 16.2% probability that at five or less African-Americans get promotions.

d) The company may be accused of racial discrimination because the ammount of promotions given to African-Americans is much less than expected if there were no discrimination. The expected value, if there is no discrimination, of having more than 5 promotions for African American employees is 84%.
