Answer:

Just in time (JIT) inventory management

Explanation:

Just in time (JIT) inventory management is a system created to lower inventory costs and increase manufacturing efficiency. JIT aligns materials and components orders with production schedules in order to reduce inventory levels to the lowest possible level.

It was developed by Toyota in order to reduce the costs of its car manufacturing processes. Once I visited a Toyota pickup factory and it was amazing to see that the whole inventory of finished engines was 4 units, and the factory produced more than 500 pickups per day.

If the null hyp. assumes equal average salaries (i.e. no difference), then the alternative can take on three cases: (1) one mean is greater than the other, (2), one mean is small than the other, or (3) the means are not equal. (1) and (2) sound the same, so I should be more precise.

Explain how firms that compete in the four different market structures determine profitability.
WITCHER [35]

The four different market structures determine profitability.

perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, and monopoly.

Profitability is a measure of an organization's profit relative to its costs. A more efficient organization earns higher profit margins than an inefficient organization that must spend more to achieve the same profit.

Profitability is measured in terms of income and expenses. Income is the money generated by a company's activities. For example, if you produce and sell crops or livestock, income will be generated. However, the money that flows into the business, such as borrowing money, is not income.

The accounting definition of profitability is when a company's total revenue exceeds its total expenses. This number is called net income, or income minus expenses, according to Iowa State University. Revenue is the total income generated by the company.

A bond has a par value of $1,000, a time to maturity of 10 years, and a coupon rate of 8% with interest paid annually. If the cu
Illusion [34]

Answer:

$ 201

Explanation:

Thinking process:

The par value = $ 1 000

            time    =  $ 10 years

 rate                =  8 %

                        = 0.08

The amount at a time T is given by the formula:

A = P (1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

for $ 1 000, the amount will be:

A = 1000(1 + \frac{0.08}{10})0.08^{10}\\   = 1000(1+0.008)^{0.8} \\   = 1 000(1.00639)\\   = 1 006

The amount will be $ 1 006

for $ 8 00 it will be  =800 (1 + \frac{0.8}{10} )^{0.08*10} \\= 805

the amount will be $ 805

therefore, the net gain will be $ 1 006 - $ 805

                                       = $ 201
