Answer:

The term has two distinct meanings–one is statistical; the other is a comprehensive quality system.

Explanation:

Here, the point fact states that it will take a six standard deviation from the mean for an error to happen.

Six Sigma evolved to define numerous ideas within the business sphere and is sometimes confusing. Firstly, it's a statistical benchmark. Any business process, which produces less than 3.4 defects per 1 million chances is said to be efficient. A defect is anything produced outside of consumer satisfaction. Second, it is a training and certification program, which teaches the core principles of Six Sigma. Practitioners may achieve the Six Sigma certification belt levels, ranging from white belt to black belt. Finally, it's a philosophy, which promotes the idea that all business processes can be measured and optimized.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The depreciation for the first year is $75,000

In working hours method the depreciation on a fixed asset is charged using the ratio of numbers of hours utilized by the asset in a period and lifetime working capacity in hours.

First, we need to calculate the Depreciable value

Depreciable value = Cost of Asset - Salvage value = $315,000 - $15,000 = $300,000

Depreciation = Depreciable value x Numbers of hours worked / Total working capacity of Asset = $300,000 x 25,000 / 100,000 = $75,000

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

D) The supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase

Explanation:

The externality here is a negative one where the hydroelectric plants has to bear the cost of pollution as the paper mills operates.

Correcting means to make the paper mills pay for the external costs of their production and compensate the power plant for the additional cost that incurred as they have to clean up the water.

As the cost of production reduces, the power plant will be more willing to supply electricity at similar prices, ie. their supply curve will shift to the right. It will intersect with the demand curve of the consumers at a point with higher quantity (and maybe lower price)

In other words, they will supply more electricity.
