An electronic system has three major circuit boards, A, B and C. These boards have respective software support in the ratio, (30

%) : (30 %) : (40 %). Further, percentages of software failure observed in A, B and C respectively are: (4 %), (5 %) and (3 %). Suppose a random failure is observed. What is the probability that this failure is from A, B or C?

Answer:

30.77% probability that this failure is from A.

38.46% probability that this failure is from B.

30.77% probability that this failure is from C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

30% probability of board A being chosen.

Board A has a 4% probability of failure.

30% probability of board B being chosen.

Board B has a 5% probability of failure.

40% probability of board C being chosen.

Board B has a 3% probability of failure.

For all these questions:

Event A: Failure

So

P(A) = 0.3*0.04 + 0.3*0.05 + 0.4*0.03 = 0.039

Probability that this failure is from A:

Event B: Board A is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board A:

P(A \cap B) = 0.3*0.04 = 0.012

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.012}{0.039} = 0.3077

30.77% probability that this failure is from A.

Probability that this failure is from B:

Event B: Board B is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board B:

P(A \cap B) = 0.3*0.05 = 0.015

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.015}{0.039} = 0.3846

38.46% probability that this failure is from B.

Probability that this failure is from C:

Event B: Board C is chosen.

Intersection:

Failure from board C:

P(A \cap B) = 0.4*0.03 = 0.012

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.012}{0.039} = 0.3077

30.77% probability that this failure is from C.

Paladin furnishings generated $4 million in sales during 2021, and its year end total assets were $3.2 million. also, at year en
ElenaW [278]

Without having to raise funds externally sales could increase by $84,507.04.

Given that $4 million sales in 2021 and in end of the year total assets are $3.2, current liabilities are $500,000, payable notes are $200,000, accounts payable is $200,000 and accrued liabilities are $100,000 and in 2022 assets must increase by $.80 for every $1.00 increase in sales.

The amount of sales increase that the company can achieve without having to raise funds externally is calculated by multiplying the current year sales with the self-supporting growth rate.

Current Year Sales = $4,000,000

Profit Margin = 3.00%

Dividend Payout Ratio = 50%

Therefore, the Retention Ratio = 50%

Total Spontaneous Liabilities is, $200,000 + $100,000=$300,000

Last Year Total Assets = $3,200,000

Therefore, the Self-supporting Growth Rate=Addition to Retained Earnings÷[Total Assets–Total Spontaneous Liabilities-Addition to Retained Earnings]

= [Last year sales×Profit Margin×(1-Dividend Payout Ratio)]÷[Total Assets-Total Spontaneous Liabilities-Addition to Retained Earnings]

= [$4,000,000×0.03×(1–0.50)]÷[$3,200,000-$300,000–{[$4,000,000×0.04×(1–0.050)}]

= $60,000÷[$3,200,000-$300,000-$60,000]

= $80,000÷$2,840,000

= 0.02112676 or 2.112676%

Therefore, the increase in sales that the company can achieve without having to raise funds externally = Last Year Sales×Self-supporting Growth Rate

= $4,000,000×2.112676%

= $84,507.04

Hence, the Increase in Sales so the company achieve without having to raise funds externally $84,507.04”

julsineya [31]
Hey there

Lets solve this question together, 

Convert <span>76.8%</span><span> to a decimal.
</span>
0.768 * x=40.32 

Multiply 0.768<span> by </span>x<span> to get </span><span>0.768x</span><span>. 
</span>
&#10;0.768x=40.32 

Multiply<span> each </span>term<span> by </span><span>1 / 0.768</span><span> and simplify.
</span>
Cancel the common factor of 0.768.

x=40.32 / 0.768 

Divide 40.32<span> by </span>0.768<span> to get </span><span>52.5 

</span>x=52.5 <span>
