Answer:

A) To improve capacity the constraint that must be addressed is the preparation and dispatch constraint which is similar to all three shops.to address this a central preparation / dispatch center that serves all three shops the needed products should be created independently, with the primary purpose of mass preparation/dispatch to the coffee shops and not attending to customers which hampers the production of the three shops.

B ) To improve efficiency: packaging should be made ready at the drive thru station so that customer who drive in can quickly pick up the package without having to queue up for long. also consider preparing some orders on the menu that attracts the most customers ahead of time this way the queue would be reduced.

C ) At store level to improve performance proper stock taking should be essential to ensure there is enough products on the menu to serve to the customers

You lend a friend $, which your friend will repay in equal annual end-of-year payments of $, with the first payment to be r

Vadim26 [7]

Answer: 18%

Explanation:

The payments that your friend will make are an annuity as they are constant. This means that the loan amount of $15,000 is the present value of the annuity.

To find the rate of return, use the factor tables.

Present value of annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?%

15,000 = 3,000 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?%

Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?% = 15,000 / 3,000

Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?% = 5.0

Go to the present value of annuity factor table and find out what interest rate intersects with 14 periods such that the factor is 5.0.

That rate is 18%.

Rate of return is therefore 18%.

Fixed Overhead Spending and Volume Variances, Columnar and Formula Approaches

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $20,000 Favorable (F).

Explanation:

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

= $305,000 - $300,000

= $5,000 Unfavorable(U).

Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Fixed Overheads at Actual Production - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

= ($5.00 × 64,000) - $300,000

= $320,000 - $300,000

= $20,000 Favorable (F)

If a portfolio had a return of 11 the risk-free asset return was 6, and the standard deviation of the portfolios excess returns

Sindrei [870]

The premium would be 5%

If a portfolio had a return of 11 the risk-free asset return was 6, and the standard deviation of the portfolios excess returns was 25 the premium would be 5%

Portfolio return = 11%

Risk free rate = 6%

Risk premium = Portfolio return - Risk free rate

= 11% - 6% =5%

So, the premium would be 5%

Premium is an amount paid periodically to the insurer by means of the insured for overlaying his chance.
