The waist circumference has a big influence on an individual’s health condition. When most of an individual’s fat is around the waist rather than at the hips, then they are at a high risk for a cardiovascular disease. The risk is greater if the waist size is above 40 inches for men.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

8,955 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales in July = 9,500

Sales in August = 10,200

Sales in September = 6,050

Ending finished goods inventory = 30% of the next month's sale

Budgeted production units for August:

= Sales + Closing inventory - Opening inventory

= Sales + (30% of September sales) - (30% of August sales)

= 10,200 + (0.3 × 6,050) - (0.3 × 10,200)

= 10,200 + 1,815 - $3,060

= 8,955 units

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

A) Single-server single-phase model (M/M/1).

$\lambda=2.5 \,customers/hour\\\\\mu=6\,customers/hour$

B) The goal is not met, as the average time waiting for service is 5.56 minutes.

C) The new mean service rate is 7.5 customers/hour.

In this case, the average time waiting for service is 4 minutes, so the goal is met.

Explanation:

A) This situation can be modeled as a single-server single-phase model (M/M/1).

The mean arrival rate is 2.5 customers per hour.

$\lambda=2.5 \,customer/h$

The mean service rate is 6 customers per hour, calculated as:

$\mu=\frac{60\, min/h}{10 \,min/customer}=6\, customer/h$

B) The average waiting time for a customer can be expressed as:

$W_q=\frac{\lambda}{\mu}\frac{1}{\mu-\lambda} =\frac{2.5}{6}\frac{1}{6-2.5} =0.417*0.222=0.093\,hours\\\\W_q=0.093\,hours*(60min/h)=5.56 \,min$

The average waiting time is 5.56 minutes, so it is more than the goal of 5 minutes.

C) If the average time spent per customer to 8 minutes, the mean service rate becomes

$\mu=\frac{60\, min/h}{8 \,min/customer}=7.5\, customer/h$

An the average waiting time for the service now becomes:

$W_q=\frac{\lambda}{\mu}\frac{1}{\mu-\lambda} =\frac{2.5}{7.5}\frac{1}{7.5-2.5} =0.333*0.2=0.067\,hours\\\\W_q=0.067\,hours*(60min/h)=4 \,min$

The average time is now 4 minutes, so the goal is achieved.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: c. Offer faster refunds than paper returns.

Explanation:

The IRS has stated that people who submit their tax returns electronically or use the Direct debit facility will see their refunds faster than those using paper returns.

This has been most recently blamed on the current pandemic which has forced the IRS to reduce its staff in adherence with Corona virus prevention tips. As a result, the available staff cannot process the paper returns as fast.

It is therefore better to use the electronic or the Direct debit facilities if one wants their returns processed fast and their refunds released earlier.

padilas [110]

Answer:

Yes, I would recommend those sleeping 9 hours to consider sleeping 6 or 7 hours.

Explanation:

First of all, the sample of the study is very representative because the amount of observations is quite big: 1.1 million!. This means that the results of the study have a very low margin of error, and therefore, can be trusted.

Secondly, the calculations are simple, but correct. The easiest way to determine the mortality rate is to divide the number of people who died by the number of people who are still living, and who belong to the same sample.

Two methods of capital investment analysis that incorporate the time value of money are:______.

babymother [125]

Two methods of capital investment analysis that incorporate the time value of money are -Net Present Value and Discounted Cash Flow

1- Net Present Value

Net Present Value reduces the expected future cash flows by a specific rate to arrive at their value in today's terms. After subtracting the initial investment cost from the present value of the expected cash flows, it can be determined whether the project is worth pursuing. If the NPV is a positive number, it means it's worth pursuing while a negative NPV means the future cash flows aren't generating enough return to be worth it and cover the initial investment.

2- Discounted Cash Flow

With DCF analysis, the discount rate is typically the rate of return that's considered risk-free and represents the alternative investment of the project. The present value is the value of the expected cash flows in today's dollars by discounting or subtracting the discount rate. If the result or present value of the cash flows is greater than the rate of return from the discount rate, the investment is worth pursuing.
