Answer: 3 customers.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Arrival rate of customers = 3 customers per minute

Service time = 14 seconds

Then if service time is 14 seconds, the service rate per minute will be 60/14 = 4.29 = 4 (nearest whole number)

Service rate = 4 customers per minute.

Number of customers at coffee urn(Nc) :

Nc = (arrival rate) /(service rate - arrival rate)

Nc = (3) / (4 - 3)

Nc = 3 / 1

Nc = 3

Therefore, average number of customers expected at coffee urn = 3

= $660,000  ÷ 12 months

= $55,000

Pension plan assets were $1,200 million at the beginning of the year and $1,252 million at the end of the year. At the end of th
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: 4%

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Pension plan assets were $1,200 million at the beginning of the year and $1,252 million at the end of the year and that at the end of the year, retiree benefits paid by the trustee were $28 million and cash invested in the pension fund was $32 million.

Based on the above scenario, the percentage rate of return on plan assets goes thus:

Opening balance of plan assets 1200

Add:- Actual return = 48

Add:- contributions = 32

Less :- retiree benefits = -28

Closing balance of plan assets = 1252

It should be noted that the actual return is the balancing figure which is calculated as:

= 1252 + 28 - 1200 - 32

= 48

The percentage rate of return on plan assets will now be:

= 48/1200

=0.04

= 4%
