Answer:

  • see below for the table values
  • US labor cost: $115275 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The labor charge is for (6 days/week). In Mongolia, the charge per laborer is then ...

  (6 days/week)($1.10/day) = $6.60/week

The three laborers working 50 weeks/year will have a labor cost of ...

  (3 laborers)($6.60/week/laborer)(50 weeks/year) = $990/year

__

In the US, the labor charge per person per week is ...

  (14 hr/day)(6 day/week) = 84 hr/week

That's 40 hours of straight pay and 44 hours of overtime pay, or ...

  7.25(40 +1.5(44)) = 7.25(106) = 768.50

For 150 person-weeks per year, the total US labor charge is ...

  ($768.50/person/week)(3 persons)(50 weeks/year) = $115,275/year

__

The materials cost for a year is ...

  ($50/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $600/year

__

The revenue is ...

  ($2000/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $24,000/year

Profit is the difference between revenue and the total of costs:

  profit = $24,000 -($990 +600 +10000) = $12410 . . . made in Mongolia

__

So, the table gets filled as follows:

  (labor, material, fixed cost, revenue, profit)

<u>Mongolian-made</u>

  ($990, $600, $10000, $24000, $12410)

<u>US-made</u>

  ($115275, $600, $10000, $24000, -$101,875)

The US labor cost would be $115,275.

_____

<em>Comment</em>

For the given selling price, the break-even labor cost is about $1.06 per hour (on average). At US labor rates, the break-even selling price is about $10,490 per rug.

In a recent​ year, an author wrote 169 checks. Use the Poisson distribution to find the probability​ that, on a randomly selecte
grigory [225]
We should first calculate the average number of checks he wrote per day.  To do that, divide 169 by 365 (the number of days in a year) and you get (rounded) 0.463.  This will be λ in our Poisson distribution.  Our formula is
P(X=k)= \frac{ \lambda ^{k}-e^{-\lambda} }{k!}.  We want to evaluate this formula for X≥1, so first we must evaluate our case at k=0.  
P(X=0)= \frac{0.463 ^{0}-e ^{-0.463} }{0!} \\ = \frac{1-e ^{-0.463} }{1} =0.3706
To find P(X≥1), we find 1-P(X<1).  Since the author cannot write a negative number of checks, this means we are finding 1-P(X=0).  Therefore we have 1-0.3706=0.6294.
There is a 63% chance that the author will write a check on any given day in the year.<em />

Answer:

57.1mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

4*4=16

16/2=8mm^2 cross section

(4*3) + (4*3) + (5.7*3) = 41.1mm

8*2=16

41.1+16=57.1mm^2

16 out of 28 students own pets; 240 out of 560 students own pets
strojnjashka [21]
If you're asking if they are equal, they're not.

16/28 = 240/420 or 320/560.
