Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

In the base period a college student buys 20 gallons of gasoline at $2 per gallon, 2 CDs for $13 each, and 4 movie tickets for $7 each.

In the next month, the price of gasoline is $2.25 per gallon, CDs cost $12.50 each, and the price of a movie ticket is $7.50.

The price index

= \frac{price\ of\ basket\ in\ the\ current\ year}{price\ of\ basket\ in\ the\ base\ year}\ \times\ 100

= \frac{100}{94}\ \times\ 100

= 106.38 or 106.4

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Order size = 23 cars

The number of orders = 23

Explanation:

The economic order quantity (EOQ) is the order size that reduces the balance of holding and ordering cost. It is to be noted that at EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.

The EOQ is computed as shown below;

= √ 2 × Co × D)/Ch

Co = Ordering cost

D = Annual demand

Ch = Carrying cost

EOQ = √ 2 × 500 × 529 / 1,000

EOQ = 23

Number of cars to be ordered per time, I.e optimal order size = 23

Order size = 23 cars

2. The number of times orders should be placed per year would be calculated as;

Number of orders = Annual demand / Order size

Number of orders = 529 / 23

Number of orders = 23

ycow [4]

Answer:

B. I, II, and IV only

Explanation:

Job specialization can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the ability of employees working in an organization to develop specific skills, knowledge, great expertise or professionalism and experience to perform their duties, tasks or job functions effectively and efficiently.

In order to gain the requisite skills, expertise and knowledge for job specialization, it is very important for the employees to have undergone an extensive training and a good number of years in work experience.

The primary purpose of job specialization is to increase efficiency and productivity because the employees are able to specialize in the use of specific tools (equipments) to accomplish their tasks, as well as limit the level of error or mistakes in the production process.

In Business management, method analysis can be defined as the study of the detailed process for the performance of a job i.e how a job is done. Thus, method analysis gives a detailed report on the tasks involved in the performance of a job and how they are to be done.

Basically, methods analysis is particularly valuable when it is used on jobs that:

1. Are high in labor content.

2. Are done frequently.

3. Are unsafe, tiring, unpleasant, and/or noisy.
