Answer:

producing more output by revamping operation methods of the assembly line

Explanation:

The increase in production from technological progress occurs when the company introduces a new form of production that produces more goods at a lower cost, rationalizing the inputs to the production line (capital and labor). For example, imagine a firm with an assembly line of 10 workers and a machine. If the company changes its production line, replacing the machine and half of the workers with a more modern machine and the production increases to 2000 units, this means that there was a productivity gain, because with a lower utilization of the factors of production (a machine and 5 workers) The company produced twice as many products, due to technological progress.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing table to your question

Illinois​ Furniture, Inc., produces all types of office furniture. The​ "Executive Secretary" is a chair that has been designed using ergonomics to provide comfort during long work hours. The chair sells for​ $130. There are 480 minutes available during the​ day, and the average daily demand has been 50 chairs. There are eight tasks

answer : a) 9.6 minutes

               b) 5 work stations

               c) choose initial task and task with maximum task time

               d) 21 minutes

Explanation:

A) cycle time for the production of a chair

cycle time = (production time available per day ) / ( unit demand per day )

                 = 480 minutes / 50 chairs

                 = 9.6 minutes ≈ 10 minutes

B) theoretical minimum number of workstations

    = Total task / cycle time

 where total task = (4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 6 ) = 49 minutes

             cycle time = 9.6 minutes

hence theoretical minimum number of workstations = 49 / 9.6 = 5.1

 ≈ 5 workstations

C ) Assignment of tasks to workstations

      attached below

you will choose the initial/first task and also the task with maximum tax time

D) For the process the total idle time per cycle

total idle time = summation of all idle times for the 8 tasks = 21 minutes

Task A, C = 0 minutes

Task B = 3 minutes

Task E = 4 MINUTES

Task F = 3

Task G = 2

Task H = 4

Task D = 5

A customer sells 1 ABC Jul 90 Put at $5 when the market price of ABC is $89. The market falls to $82 and the customer is exercis
Talja [164]

Answer:

A $300

Explanation:

$90-$82= $8

$8-$5= $3

Therefore:

$3×100 shares =$300

The holder has bought the right to buy the stock at $90 per share because She bought this right for a premium of $5 per share. By exercising the call, the holder buys the stock at $90 and in which he /she sells the stock in the market at $82, for a 8 point loss. Since $5 points was paid in premiums, the net loss is 3 points or $300 on the contract covering 100 shares.

Laurel, Inc., and Hardy Corp. both have 6 percent coupon bonds outstanding, with semiannual interest payments, and both are curr
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of these bonds?

Laurel, Inc. = -8.11%

Hardy Corp. = -18.91%

B. If interest rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent instead, what would the percentage change in the price of these bonds be then?

Laurel, Inc. = +8.98%

Hardy Corp. = +25.49%

Explanation:

bonds with 6% semiannual coupons, sold at par $1,000

Laurel, Inc. bond maturity in 5 years

Hardy Corp. bond maturity in 18 years

the current price of a bond is the sum of the present value of its face value and coupons. I will use an annuity table to calculate PV of face value and an ordinary annuity table for the coupons:

Laurel, Inc.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.8203) + ($30 x 8.9826) = $820.30 + $269.48 = $1,089.78, % change = 89.78/1,000 = 8.98%

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.6756) + ($30 x 8.1109) = $675.60 + $243.33 = $918.93, % change = -81.07/1,000 = -8.11%

Hardy Corp.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.4902) + ($30 x 25.489) = $490.20 + $764.67 = $1,254.87, % change = 254.87/1,000 = 25.49%  

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.2437) + ($30 x 18.908) = $243.70 + $567.24 = $810.94, % change = -189.06/1,000 = -18.91%

A monopoly has produced a product with a patent for the last few years. The patent is going to expire. What will likely happen t
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Demand for the patent-holder's product will decrease when the patent runs out.

Explanation:

While there is a patent over a product, only the patent-holder's can sell that product. If there is a monopoly it means that that company is the only one that produce and sell this product.

When the patent run out new competitors will enter the business, so the demand on patents holders will decrease.
