Answering the question, in flexible manufacturing, machines are designed to do multiple tasks so that they can produce a variety of products.

A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) refers to a production technique that is developed to easily adjust to changes in the amount and types of product that is being manufactured

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

It is an automated machine cell that is made up of different categories of processing workstations which are linked together with automated materials handling and storage.

A flexible manufacturing system can have a positive impact on production; it can also reduce a company's cost of production. A flexible manufacturing system can also be a major part of a build-to-order strategy whereby consumers can request to customize the product they desire.

This production method can be very expensive, buying and setting up the equipment that will perform such task will attract a higher upfront cost.

Also, humans are required to effectively control the operation of the flexible manufacturing system.

Some of the functions mainly performed by humans in this production method include

Replacing and settings the tools in the system
Offloading the finish parts from the manufacturing system
Placing the raw work parts into the manufacturing system and many more

The idea behind a flexible manufacturing system was developed by Jerome H. Lemelson.

Explanation:

The question isn't complete. Here is the full question:

A study finds that the noise from airplanes is harmful; hence, the government imposes a $20 tax on the sale of every airplane. This amount accurately accounts for the external cost of the noise pollution. Before the corrective tax, airplane tickets regularly sold for $190. After the tax is in place, the market price for airplane tickets rises to $200.

The socially optimal price of airplane tickets is

The private market price is

A firm selling airplane tickets receives after it pays the tax

The noise from the airplanes constitute negative externality.

Tax levied on negative externality is known as pigouvian tax.

As a result of the tax, the price of tickets increases and this would reduce the quantity of tickets demanded for according to the law of demand. According to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

The social optimal price is the price of the ticket after the tax accounting for the externality has been added to price. The social optimal price is $200.

The private market price is the price before the taxes: $190.

The amount received by firms = $200 - $20 = $180

Answer:

In 269th Payment the principal component is greater than half of the payment

Explanation:

Amortization schedule is attached please find it.

The loan payment includes the interest and principal portion. After deducting the interest on the due balance the residual amount is paid towards the principal.

Loan is paid per month, the amount of each payment can be calculated as follow:

Loan Payment per month = r ( PV ) / 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n

r = rate per period = 9% per year = 0.75% per month

n = number months = 30 years x 12 months per year = 360 Months

PV = present value of all payments = $420,000

P = payment per month = ?

P = 0.75% ( $420,000 x 90% ) / 1 - ( 1 + 0.75% )^-360

P = $3,041.47 per month
