Answer:
I will use the Omega network configuration if the economic factor is the determining one.
The total cost for the Omega network using the 4x4 switches will be $12,800, unlike the Butterfly network that can use the 16x16 switches that will cost $24,000.
Explanation:
The Omega network configuration will use the 4x4 switches which cost $50 each. The total number of switches required = 4,096/16 = 256. The total cost for 4x4 switches = 256 * $50 = $12,800. This is better than the Butterfly network configuration that can use the 16x16 switch, costing $1,500 x 16 (4,096/256) = $24,000.
Answer:
The expected/required rate of return is 13.8125%.
Explanation:
The stock is a constant growth stock as the dividends are expected to grow constantly forever. The constant dividend growth model of DDM is used to calculate the price of such a stock today. As we already know the price, we will use the formula of the constant growth model to determine the required rate of return. The formula for constant growth model is:
P0 or Price today = D1 / r - g
Plugging in the available known values,
16 = 1.25 / (r - 0.06)
16 * (r - 0.06) = 1.25
16r - 0.96 = 1.25
16r = 1.25 + 0.96
r = 2.21 / 16
r = 0.138125 or 13.8125%
Answer
Hi,
Correct answer option is {c}
Explanation
There are four stages of solving problems at a workplace;
• Defining the problem where the manager identifies the issue at hand to obtain detailed information about it
• Going through the alternatives, where it involves balancing logical thinking and creativity in accessing and comparing alternatives
• Selecting the best strategy that involves carefully consideration of the options and deciding the strategy which is best for the workplace problem
• Implementing the solution which involves applying the a mixture of reductive analysis and system thinking.
All the Best!
Answer:
Volatility
Explanation:
Volatility of industrial demand is the uncertainty in demand for product or parts by consumers. Companies need to adequately prepare for these changes in demand by the consumer so as to adequately provide the inventory or product to the customer.
In the given scenario Toyota is manufacturing product for all demands in the market place so as to capture all market shares.
They are producing both traditionally furled cars and the Mirai (a car that uses electricity). By this move they are appealing to both demand for normal fuel cars and those that want to use alternative energy sources
Answer: $7,500
Explanation:
In calculating the Incremental income we will add the amount of variable Manufacturing costs Rory Company will save as well as the income they will get from selling the old machine and then subtract the cost price of the new machine.
Starting off we will calculate the amount of savings they will make by using the new machine,
= $12,000 x 5 years
= $60,000
Calculating the Incremental income therefore we have,
= 60,000 + 60,000(from selling old machine) - 112,500 (cost of new machine)
= $7,500
The incremental income of buying the new machine is $7,500.
