Aquaguard manufactures three models of water purifiers in three separate plants at Taiwan. These plants serve the demand in Euro

Zanzabum

Answer:

Aquaguard may choose any of the two models to minimize the production variability in the new plant.

Explanation:

Model 1: Mean = 1000, Standard Deviation(SD) = 300

Model 2: Mean = 1000, SD = 300

Model 3: Mean = 1000, SD = 300

Coefficient of variation for model 1

C.V = ( SD ÷ Mean) × 100

= ( 300 ÷ 1000 ) × 100

= 30 %

Coefficient of variation for model 2

= ( 300 ÷ 1000 ) × 100

= 30 %

Coefficient of variation for model 3

= ( 300 ÷ 1000 ) × 100

= 30 %

We conclude that all the models have same effect .

astraxan [27]

Answer:

1.26

Explanation:

Current ratio=1.5

DSO=40

DSO=Net sales/Average Accounts receivable

40=(Average Accounts receivable/Net sales)*365

1,600,000/(40/365)=Net sales

Net sales=$14,600,000

Revised DSO=30

(30/365)=Average Accounts Receivable-revised/$14,600,000

Average Accounts Receivable-revised=$1,200,000

Current Assets-Old Receivables+New Receivables= $2,500,000-1,600,000+1,200,000=$2,100,000

Current liabilities=2,500,000/1.5

Current liabilities=$1,666,667

Revised current ratio=$2,100,000/1,666,667

Revised Current ratio=1.26

The number of jobs available in the U.S. economy is largely determined by the number of workers private firms choose to hire. In

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The Federal Reserve is in charge of the monetary policy in the United States. It expands or reduces the money supply (the total amount of money in the economy) by raising or lowering the interest rate.

There is a relationship, in the short run, between unemployment and money supply. The higher the money supply, the lower the unemployment rate, and viceversa: the lower the money supply, the higher the unemployment rate.

This relationship exists because when the money supply increases, the interest rate falls, if the interest rate falls, investing becomes cheaper, and as a result, firms invest more and hire more workers.

The opposite happens when the money supply is contracted: interest rates rise, investing becomes more expensive, and firms hire less people.

This is why the Fed has a great deal of power when it comes to employment in the economy.
