Answer:

The response options are as follows:

A) 2

B) 3

C) 4

D) 5

E) None of the above because quality has no impact on productivity (units / labor hour)

The correct answer is: D) 5

Explanation:

Currently there are challenges and especially competition in organizations, which allows us to face high competition, both nationally and internationally.

Good quality is a quality that any service must have in order to obtain a better performance in its operation and durability, complying with norms and rules necessary to satisfy the needs of the client.

Quality within an organization is an important factor that generates satisfaction for its customers, employees and shareholders, and provides practical tools for comprehensive management. Nowadays, it is necessary to meet the quality standards to be able to compete in an increasingly demanding market; For this, continuous improvement, customer satisfaction and standardization and process control must be sought. You must also make the different departments of the company make quality by defining the objectives that correspond to you always seeking customer satisfaction and continuous improvement.

Quality indicators are measuring instruments, tangible and quantifiable, which allow the quality of processes, products and services to be evaluated to ensure customer satisfaction. In other words, they measure the level of compliance with the specifications established for a given business activity or process. Management indicators measure, overall, the final result of business activities based on a standard, which responds to the level of objective quality that the company expects and wants to achieve.

elixir [45]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Formula:

\text{Asset cash flow = creditors cash flow + equity cash flow}\\\\ \text{creditors cash flow = payment of interest-net new loans}\\\\ \text{Cash flow to lenders = interest charged}-( LTD_{end}-LTD_{beg}) \\

\text{Cash flow} =100000 -(1700000- 1460000) = - \$ 140,000 \\

\text{Shareholder cash flow = paid dividends-net new shares} \\\\\text{Cash flow = interest paid - (Common} + APIS_{end})- \text{(Common +} APIS_{beg}))\\\\

\text{Cash flow to the inventory holders}=  157000 -(162000 +3070000))-(152000+2770000) = - \$ 5997000

\text{Asset cash flow = - \$ 6,137,000}

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a).

  • Labor hours productivity=3.500
  • Multi-factor productivity=2.423

b). The reduction in labor hours per employee per week to achieve this goal=15.735 hours

c). The maximum value that the overhead costs per week can be to ensure the multi-factor productivity is at least 1.257=$21,059.666

Explanation:

a).

  • <em>Step 1: Determine the labor hours productivity</em>

Labor output per week=potential leads×fee

where;

potential leads=5% of potential leads, and potential leads=3,000

potential leads=5%×3,000

potential leads=(5/100)×3,000=150

one-time fee=$70

replacing;

Labor output per week=70×150=$10,500

Labor input per week=cost per hour per employee×number of employees×number of hours worked

where;

cost per hour per employee=$25

number of employees=3

number of hours worked=40

replacing;

Labor input per week=25×3×40=$3,000

Labor hours productivity=labor output per week/labor input per week

Labor hours productivity=10,500/3,000=3.500

  • <em>Step 2: Determine the multi-factor productivity</em>

Multi-factor productivity=Generated fees/(labor cost+material cost+overhead cost)

where;

generated fees=number of employees×potential leads×potential ratio×fee

number of employees=3, potential leads=3,000, potential ratio=5%=5/100=0.05, fee=$70

generated fees=3×3,000×0.05×70=$31,500

Labor cost=$3,000

Material cost=$1,000

Overhead cost=$9,000

Total cost=3,000+1,000+9,000=$13,000

replacing;

Multi-factor productivity=31,500/13,000=2.423

b). Increasing the multi-factor productivity (MP) by 10%

New MP=(110/100)×2.423=2.665

New MP=generated fees/labor cost+material cost+overhead cost

labor cost=cost per hour per employee×number of employees×number of hours worked

where;

cost per hour per employee=$25

number of employees=3

number of hours worked=h

labor cost=25×3×h=75 h

material cost=$1,000

overhead cost=$9,000

generated fees=$31,500

New MP=2.665

replacing;

2.665=31,500/{(75 h)+(1,000)+(9,000)}

2.665=31,500/75 h+10,000

2.665(75 h+10,000)=31,500

199.875 h+26,650=31,500

199.875 h=31,500-26,650

199.875 h=4,850

h=4,850/199.875

h=24.265

New labor hours=24.265 hours per week

Initial labor hours=40 hours per week

Reduction in labor hours=Initial labor hours-new labor hours

Reduction in labor hours=(40-24.265)=15.735

The reduction in labor hours per employee per week to achieve this goal=15.735 hours

c). Using a multi-factor of 1.257

MP=generated fees/labor cost+material cost+overhead cost

where;

MP=1.257

generated fees=$31,500

Labor cost=$3,000

Material cost=$1,000

Overhead cost=c

replacing;

1.257=31,500/(c+3,000+1,000)

1.257=31,500/c+4,000

1.257(c+4,000)=31,500

1.257 c+5,028=31,500

1.257 c=31,500-5,028

1.257 c=26,472

c=26,472/1.257=21,059.666

The maximum value that the overhead costs per week can be to ensure the multi-factor productivity is at least 1.257=$21,059.666

Generally in a supermarket the aisle just before the cash register is full of candy, chocolates, or other impulse products.
