Answer:

The correct answer is option (a)  Less than 5% but more than 3%

Explanation:

Scheduled time of project = 25

Calculating the activity variance, we have

Task     Mean time    Standard deviation        Variance

A                  4                               0.6               0.6² = 0.36

B                  5                               0.2               0.2² = 0.04

E                 2                                0.1                 0.1² = 0.01

F                 6                                  1                     1² = 1

H                 2                               0.2                 0.2² = 0.04

M                 6                               0.1                 0.1² = 0.01

Sum of variance = 0.36 +0.04 + 0.01 +1+ 0.04 + 0.01

                                =1.46

Standard deviation  = √variance

                                 =√1.46

                                 =1.2083

probability that the project will be completed in 23 days or less

z = 23-25 /1.2083

     = -1.65

which corresponds to prob. of 0.0494 = 4.94%

a is correct.

The better-off test for evaluating whether a particular diversification move is likely to generate added value for shareholders
Arada [10]

Answer:  Has competitively valuable value chain match-ups with the company's present businesses such that its businesses can perform better together than apart.

Explanation:

The better-off test of diversification is that the company must gain a return that is higher than incremental growth. Incremental growth is usually defined a 1 + 1 = 2 formula and this test argues that Diversification must provide more than this such that the company achieves synergistic growth ( 1 + 1 = 3) which is what happens when different entities work better together than alone.

Diversification should therefore be into an area that will be able to match-up with the company's present businesses such that its businesses can perform better together than apart and produce even greater returns.

Melanie is very concerned with avoiding late fees. The table shows her choices for paying her bills. Method Bill Payment Methods
sp2606 [1]
<span>The answer is 3 Set up automatic payments. Automatic payments can be done through direct access to ATM that receives the salary or bank account. This can help people like Melanie to avoid having trouble with late payments that would incur penalties. Paying by check would not be a good option because you should make sure there is enough money to pay for that purchase if not there could be more trouble. Paying through phone or online payments are sometimes delayed before it reaches the concerned company.
