Answer:

Explanation:

The lease rent that depends upon CPI rate and operating expenses has more risk than normal increase in value rent alternatives. Reason being that CPI can be increased or decreased in future and this will affect the builder's cashflow.

Likewise, operating expense is also an increase or decrease because the builder's cashflow can increase or decrease .

The risk level of all the four alternatives is shown below

Net lease with steps- Less risky

Net lease with CPI - Highly risky

Gross lease - Moderately risky

There are 20 automatic turning machines in the lathe department. Batches of parts are machined in the department. Each batch con

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The capacity of the lathe department is 3200 parts/week. The workers capacity is the bottleneck.

Explanation:

In this case we have to compare the machine capacity and the worker capacity, and detecting shich one is limitating the capacity of the department.

Machine capacity

The time it takes for a machine to process a batch is

$Time_{batch}=T_{setup} + T_{machining}=5+(9/60)*100=5+15=20 h$

In 40-hour week, every machine can process 2 batches/week.

With 20 machines, the capacity of the department is 2*20=40 batch/week (4000 pcs/week).

Workers capacity

With 40-hour week and 5-hours setup, every worker can make (40/5)=8 setups a week.

If the department has 4 workers, the amount of setups that can be done is 4*8=32 setups/week. That means that only 32 batches can be processed per week (3200 pcs/week).

The workers resource is the limitating capacity, and therefore the capacity of the lathe department.

Answer:

Positioning strategies

Explanation:

In business , positioning strategies refers to the efforts that a company can do to influence some sort of perception toward their brands.

In the example above, Markup artfully arranged his products and priced to indicate product rarity in upscale neighborhood.

He did this because for customers with high economic power, presentation of a certain product will create the perception that owning that product indicates high social status. This probably held more value compared to the actual use function of the product itself.

On the other hand, he left his products in open boxes and placed haphazardly on shelves when targeting customers with lower income. He did this because among customers with lower income, presentation tend to matter less compared to the actual function of thier brand.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

The answer is "The last choice"

Explanation:

While comparing 2 assets or portfolio management, the risk of each portfolio and the rates of return of each portfolio should be taken into consideration. Whether the same danger is in the two assets. One should be preferred with both the higher return and one from the lowest risk should be recommended unless the two have the same rate of return. Portfolio A consequently either has a higher return and an at least as low fluctuation as B, or even lower volatility as well as an anticipated return at least as strong as B.
