Once a firm has gained insights from doing qualitative research, it is likely to engage in ______ research, which are structured

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Quantitative

Explanation:

The reason is that a good research report includes qualitative and quantitative research. Qualitative research is non numerical data and it give information which helps in meaning making whereas the quantitative research is a research in which the researcher tries to find the numerical relation using quantifiable data, which is investigated through number of means which includes use of mathematics, principles, etc techniques to extract data. So the qualitative research is done here and the only thing the company requires is quantitative data.

Surgery Center is an outpatient surgical clinic that was profitable for many years, but Medicare has cut its reimbursements by a

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The total Costs allocated to General surgery is $ 867500.

The total Costs allocated to Orthopedic surgery is $1951500.

Average Cost per patient of General surgery= $1735

Average Cost per patient of Orthopedic surgery= $6505

Explanation:

Surgery Center

Activity Cost Pool Cost Cost Driver Driver Quantity

Professional Salaries 2,520,000 Professional hours 12,000

Patient Ser. & Supplies 44,000 Number of patients 800

Building cost 255,000 Square feet 1,700

Service Hours Square Feet Patients

General surgery 3,500 700 500

Orthopedic surgery 8,500 1,000 300

Cost Per Cost Driver

Professional Salaries/ Professional hours =2,520,000 /12,000=210

Patient Ser. & Supplies/ Number of patients = 44,000 /800= 55

Building cost / Square feet =255,000 /1700= 150

We apply the rates to both the surgeries to get the costs.

Total Costs

Service Hours Square Feet Patients Total

General surgery 3,500*210 700*150 500*55

Costs $ 735000 105000 27500 867500

Orthopedic surgery 8,500*210 1,000*150 300*55

Costs $ 1785000 150,000 16500 1951500

The total Costs allocated to General surgery is $ 867500.

The total Costs allocated to Orthopedic surgery is $1951500.

Total No of Patients = 800

Total Costs = $ 2819,000

We find the average by dividing the total cost by the number of the patients.

Average Cost Rate per patient = 2819,000/800= 3523.75

Average Cost per patient of General surgery= 867500/500= $1735

Average Cost per patient of Orthopedic surgery=1951500/300= $6505

Larry Ellison starts a company that manufactures high-end custom leather bags. He hires two employees. Each employee only begins

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

12.55 days

Explanation:

Provided information

Number of employees 2

Average production time=1.8 days

Standard deviation=2.7 days

Inter-arrival time= 1 day

Coefficient of variation= 1 day

Standard deviation of inter-arrival time= 1 day

The coefficient of variations

Inter-arrival coefficient of variation

$C_{vi}=\frac {\sigma}{T}$ where $\sigma$ is standard deviation of inter-arrival time, T is inter-arrival time and $C_v$ is coefficient of variation of inter-arrival time

$C_{vi}=\frac {1 day}{1 day}=1$

Production time coefficient of variation

$C_{vp}=\frac {2.7}{1.8}=1.5$

Total utilization time

$U=\frac {T}{n*T_i}$ where T is the time of production, n is number of employees, U is utilization, $T_i$ is inter-arrival time

$U=\frac {1.8}{2*1}=0.9$

Therefore, utilization time by 2 employees is 0.9

Expected average waiting time

$T_e=(\frac {T}{n*T_i})*0.5(C_{vi}^{2}+C_{vp}^{2})*(\frac{U^{\sqrt{2(n+1)}-1}}{1-U})$

Where $T_e$ is expected average waiting time and the other symbols as already defined

Substituting 1.5 for $C_{vp}$ , 1 for $C_{vi}$ , 0.9 for U, 2 for n, 1 for $T_i$ and 1.8 for T

$T_e=(\frac {1.8}{2*1})*0.5(1^{2}+1.5^{2})*(\frac{0.9^{\sqrt{2(2+1)}-1}}{1-0.9})$

$T_e=0.9*1.625*8.583709=12.55367 days$ and rounding off to 2 decimal places we obtain 12.55 days

Therefore, expected duration between order received and beginning of production is approximately 12.55 days
