Answer:

The net loss of the trader amounts to $1,000, which means the correct option is A

Explanation:

The payoff is computed as:

Payoff = Strike price - Option's Stock price

where

Strike price is $90

Option's Stock Price is $85

Putting the values above:

Payoff = $90 - $85

= $5 per option

The trader bought 200 options, so the payoff would be:

Payoff = Options × Price per option

= 200 × $5

= $1,000

And the option cost would be:

Option cost = Options × Option Price

= 200 × $10

= $2,000

So, there computing net loss or gain as:

Net loss or gain = Payoff - Option cost

= $1,000 - $2,000

= $1,000 ( net loss)

Therefore, the correct option is A

In product grouping, employees are placed in groups based on the product they produce.

Suppose that the Dallas School District wants to achieve Six Sigma quality levels of performance in delivering students to schoo
Kay [80]

Answer:

a) 1.66 minutes

b) 3.4 out of million deliveries

Explanation:

So, it is a six sigma quality question, we first need to understand little bit about six sigma and how it is to achieve six sigma level.

<u>Six Sigma:</u>

It is the process or technique used by many organizations through out the world to achieve maximum quality in a product or in a service they are providing. It helps to indicate root causes of the process or you can say waste steps which first need to be identified then rectified to bring that top-notch quality in the system. So in this case, in order to calculate part a) we will calculate six sigma control limits.

a) So, for six sigma control limits, the maximum allowable standard deviation is 12 or you can say +6 + (-6) = ±6 = 12. It means all deviations must lie in all 12 standard deviations.

<em>Please refer to the table shown in the attachment.</em> This bell curve represent six sigma concept. In this <em>3 sigma quality level means all deviations must lie in 6 standard deviations.</em>

So, here we have been given that mean = 20, so with mean we can calculate standard deviation in six sigma control limits.

Maximum Allowable Standard Deviation for 6 sigma = Mean/12

                                                                                        = 20/12

                                                                                       = 1.66

So, 1.66 is the maximum allowable standard deviation of arrival times required in order to achieve 6 sigma quality level.

b) In this part, we are asked that, out of million deliveries about how many times bus deliver students too early or too late at this 6 sigma quality level.

<em>For this answer, please refer to attachment again</em>. and notice at the left bottom with the arrow of 6 sigma, we have a number 3.4 ppm means 3.4 part per million.

<em>So, it 3.4 times in a million deliveries bus will deliver students either too early or too late. </em>

klio [65]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following,

The human resource functions that are likely to be affected by this change are Resource Management, Personal Data Management, Training, and Performance Management.

Human Resource Management helps the organization carry out this change successfully, explaining how these modifications can benefit the employees and the entire organization. HR has to use the proper means of internal communication to explain in advance the kinds of oof changes that are coming. This will prevent fear and anxiety, and eliminate rumors about the situation of the employees in the organization.

HR has to be careful in confirming that nobody is going to be fired by the arrival of new technologies. Then, HR has to explain in detail the many benefits in planning, scheduling, organizing, inventory, and many other benefits for each department. If employees do not feel threatened by this new technology they would welcome changes that allow them to do their work more productively.
