The residents of Bucktown, Illinois, place their trash at the curb each Wednesday morning to be picked up by Municipal Crews. Ex

perience shows the total amount of trash put out has a normal distribution with a mean of 35 tons and a standard deviation of 9 tons. Crews of full-time city employees assigned to trash collection collect trash. Each group can collect five tons of trash per working day. The city has plenty of trucks of the kind used for trash collection. The marginal cost of operating one trash collection crew for one working day, including both personnel-related costs and truck-related costs, is reckoned at $625. Whatever trash remains at the end of the workday must be collected that evening by an outside contractor who charges $650 per ton. How many crews should the city assigned to trash collection?

Answer: 8.56crews

Explanation:

To get critical fractile probability SL,

We stock up the local trash collection capacity.Cost of overstocking by 1 ton =MC = 625/5 = $125Cost of understocking by 1 ton = additional cost of using outside trash pick up = MB = $650-$125 = $5

SL = Prob(RQ) = MB /( MB + MC) = 525/(125 + 525) = 0.8077 appropriate # of crews = 8.56 crews

garri49 [273]

Answer:

The Today's value of payment occurred for 20 years is $72,039.

Explanation:

Payment of fixed amount for a fixed period of time is called annuity. Present value of annuity will be calculated as follow

PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ]

According to given data

P = monthly payment = $6,800 every year

r = interest rate = 7%

n = number of period = 20 years = 20 periods

PV of annuity = $6,800 x [ ( 1- ( 1 + 0.07 )^-20 ) / 0.07 ]

PV of annuity = $72,039.30

An individual stock's diversifiable risk, which is measured by its beta, can be lowered by adding more stocks to the portfolio i
tatiyna
We are given the statement above. I think we are supposed to determine if the statement is true or false. If this is the case, then the answer is TRUE. The diversifiable risk can be lowered if there are more stocks added to the portfolio. The nature of the diversifiable risk is that the less the stocks in each portfolio, the greater the risk.

The following is an account for a production department, showing its costs for one month:Goods in Process InventoryBalance 5,400
Viefleur [7K]

Answer: The correct answer is "B. $2,160."

Explanation: First we must calculate the total costs

Total cost = Goods in process inventory + Direct materials + Direct labor + Overhead.

Total cost = $5400 + $21600 + $16200 + $10800 = $ 54000.

Then the total transferred out =

Total transferred out = Total cost - units in the final inventory of goods in process.

Total transferred out = $54000 - $4590 = $49410.

Now we must know the beginning goods in process transferred out =

BGIP Transfered = Total transfered out - units started and completed.

BGIP Transfered = $49410 - $41850 = $7560

And finally we calculate the cost to complete the begining goods in process inventory which is =

Cost to complete BGIP = BGIP transfered out - Goods in Process Inventory Balance.

Cost to complete BGIP = $7560 - $5400 = <u>$2160</u>

Why might a project manager avoid using technical language when giving a presentation to clients?
Reil [10]

Answer:

Forget that you’re up there not to promote how wonderful you are, but to provide value to the audience.

Lose focus of what the audience needs from you. One way: Before you start talking, ask, “What do you hope to learn/achieve from this meeting?”

Fail to set objectives. Even if you don’t share them with participants, know what you want to achieve.

Proceed without a plan (also known as an agenda). Whatever you call it, it’s a map for how your session is going to go.

Wing it. Preparation is everything. Unless you’re an improv master, you have to figure out what you’re going to do, in what order and for how long. And almost everyone needs to practice.

Jump from point to point in a disorganized way. See #4 and #6.
