Answer:

D

Explanation:

We will use the assembly line balancing equation to solve this problem.

The equation is:

Efficiency=\frac{Sum \ of \ task \ times}{Total \ time}

The sum of task times is given as "60 mins"

Now, the Total time would be the number of workstations multiplied by the cycle time of each.

Number of Workstations = 8

Cycle Time = 10 minutes

Hence, total time is:

8 * 10 = 80

Now, efficiency:

Efficiency=\frac{Sum \ of \ task \ times}{Total \ time}\\Efficiency=\frac{60}{80}=0.75

Correct answer is D

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Free trade.

Explanation:

This theoretical policy can be explained to be certain laws under which the government is seen to impose absolutely no tariffs, taxes, or duties on imports, or quotas on exports. Therefore, it is directly seen to be the opposite of protectionism, a defensive trade policy intended to eliminate the possibility of foreign competition. It is seen in terms of unrestricted measures in importation and also exportation of goods in and out of a country.

In the world of our own, which is of the recent times, this policy implementation is done by means of a formal and mutual agreement of the nations which are seen to be involved. Also this policy in some cases may simply be the absence of any trade restrictions.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete since the interest rate is not included and so is the requirement.  However, if it asking for the annual contributions Bonnie can make, you can calculate it as shown below and assuming a discount rate of 10%;

Explanation:

Since Bonnie's goal is $300,000, this will be the future value and you can use a financial calculator to solve for recurring deposits (PMT);

Time to retirement; N = 12

Interest rate; I/Y = 10%

Future value; FV = 300,000

One time present cashflow; PV = 0

then compute the recurring deposits; CPT PMT = 14,028.995

Therefore, she will need to contribute $14,029 every year to meet her goal.

<span>The ending equity is $315,000 This is just a matter of adding income and subtracting withdraws. So let's do it. "Cragmont has beginning equity of $277,000," x = $277000 "net income of $63,000" x = $277000 + $63000 = $340000 "withdrawals of $25,000" x = $340000 - $25000 = $315000</span>
