Answer:

$1,241

Explanation:

For computing the net advantage to leasing first we have to determine the total cash flow from leasing and total cash flow from buying which is shown below:

For leasing:

Year       Lease payment      PVF at 5.8%    Present value

1              $6,500                   0.9452             $6,144

2             $6,500                   0.8934             $5,807

3              $6,500                  0.8444              $5,489

Total outflow                                                   $17,440

For buy:

Year      Outflow or inflow     PVF at 5.8%    Present value

0            ($23,000)                    1                      ($23,000)

1              $1,610                       0.9452             $1,522

2             $1,610                        0.8934             $1,438

3              $1,610                       0.8444              $1,359

Total outflow                                                   $18,681

Now the net advantage to leasing is

= Buy outflow - leasing outflow

= $18,681 - $17,440

= $1,241

A goal programming problem had two goals (with no priorities assigned). Goal number 1 was to achieve a profit of $2,400 and goal
topjm [15]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

Goal programming is an optimization technique that allows for multiple, normally conflicting objectives and then attempts to solve each goal sequentially to a satisfactory level. In goal programming, differential variables are being used.

Since the goal programming problem had two goals. Goal number 1 was to achieve a profit of $2,400 and goal number 2 was to have no idle time for workers in the factory. The optimal solution to this problem resulted in a profit of $2,300 and no idle time

This means that goal number 2 was achieved since the optimal solution resulted in no idle time. But goal number 1 was not achieved because a profit of $2300 was achieved in the solution instead of $2400.

Therefore, the value for the objective function for this goal programming problem = 2400 - 2300 = 100

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Option a                            

Explanation:

In simple words, consensus building refers to the process under which different individuals, who will get affected in some way or another from the decision being made, share the views and ideas and prepare a solution that makes maximum benefit and minimal loss to the all.

Such kind of behavior is needed in large organisations where the number of employees working is very high and different individuals have different goals for themselves. Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
