Answer: The risk of stock out = 2.94%

Explanation:

Reorder point is calculated as: Lead time*demand per unit time=45*9=405

While the amount on-hand reaches 422 pounds, the manager was reordering lubricant.

During the lead time, Standard Deviation of Demand =Daily S.D*(Lead time)^0.5=3*(9^0.5)=9

Risk of Stock Out=(422-405)/9 S.D=1.89 S.D

From Normal distribution curve 1.89 S.D=0.0294=2.94%

Therefore, the risk of stock out=2.94%

Answer:

2.94% (about 3%)

Explanation:

Average daily usage = 45 pounds

Lead time = 9 days

If we calculate the Reorder point using the above we get:

Reorder point = Lead time x Average daily usage = 45 x 9 = 405 pounds

However, the manager was reordering lubricant when the amount on hand reaches 422 pounds

Hence the safety stock = 422 - 405 = 17 units

Reorder point is calculated as: Lead time*demand per unit time=45*9=405

In the course of the lead time, we have a standard deviation calculated as:

Daily standard deviation x (Lead time)^0.5

= 3 x (9^0.5) = 3 x 3 = 9

Hence the risk of stock out = (422 - 405)/9 x Standard Deviation = 1.89 x S.D

Using the normal distribution curve, with the z-value of 1.89, this means that the probability of stock out = 0.0294 = 2.94%

Approximately 3%.

IceJOKER [234]

question text <u>WITH </u>missing information:

After examining the various personal loan rates available to you, you find that you can borrow funds from a finance company at an APR of <em>12 percent compounded monthly</em> or from a bank at an APR of <em>13 percent compounded annually.</em> Which alternative is more attractive?

If you borrow ​$100 from a finance company at an APR of 9% percent compounded for ​year, how much do you need to payoff the​ loan?

Answer:

The finance company option is better as we are taking the loan we want the lower rate possible.

We need $109 to payoff the loan of $100 at 9% annualy after a whole year.

Explanation:

We solve for the effective rate of 12% compounded monthly

(1+\frac{0.12}{12} )^{12} = 1.12682503 = 0.126825 = 12.6825%

As this rate is lower than 13% this option is better

If we take 100 dollars after a year we have to pay:

$100 x (1 + r) = 100 x (1 + 0.09) = 100 x 1.09 = $109

andre [41]

Answer:

Option D, Final goods, and services produced in the United States.

Explanation:

Option D is correct because the gross national product is the value of all goods and services produced in the domestic boundary of a nation during the accounting year and all the net factor income from abroad. Since there is a lack of information regarding the net factor income from abroad in the question, so just consider the value of final goods and services produced in the domestic territory that will be part of GNP.
