a. YHA is the best expected value decision with an expected value of $59,766.

b. HTC is the worst expected value decision.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling

SUA $68,082 $47,373 $36,362

YSP $64,850 $49,320 $44,865

HTC $57,198 $52,949 $50,605

YHA $59,766 $59,766 $59,766

Expected Value:

Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling Expected Value

Probability 60% 30% 10%

SUA $68,082*60% $47,373*30% $36,362*10% = $58,697

YSP $64,850*60% $49,320*30% $44,865*10% = 58,163

HTC $57,198*60% $52,949*30% $50,605*10% = 55,264

YHA $59,766*60% $59,766*30% $59,766*10% = 59,766

SUA = $40,849.20 + $14,211.90 + $3,636.20 = $58,697.30

YSP = $38,880 + $14,796 + $4,486.50 = $58,162.50

HTC = $34,318.80 + $15,884.70 + $5,060.50 = $55,264

YHA = $35,859.60 + $17,929.80 + $5,976.60 = $59,766

Use one of your research accidents specifically and briefly explain it.a. Determine if this type maintenance-related error happe

EastWind [94]

Answer: Accident research covers a very wide field. In this paper different models for accident research are presented; ie the behavioral, the epidemiological and the systems model. Different definitions of accidents are discussed, and particular attention is given to the restrictions on research as implied by the different definitions. A method for near-accident reporting is presented as a way of activating safety work and extending cooperation concerning industrial safety measures. The Dirty Dozen refers to twelve of the most common human error preconditions, or conditions that can act as precursors, to accidents or incidents. These twelve elements influence people to make mistakes.

. Lack of communication

5. Complacency

9. Lack of knowledge

2. Distraction

6. Lack of teamwork

10. Fatigue

3. Lack of resources

7. Pressure

11. Lack of assertiveness

4. Stress

8. Lack of awareness

A mining company owns two mines, each of which produces three grades (high, medium, and low) of ore. The company has a contract

sashaice [31]

Answer:

They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.

Explanation:

The formulation of the linear programming is:

Objective function:

$C=200M_1+160M_2$

Restrictions:

- High-grade ore: $6M_1+2M_2\geq12$

- Medium-grade ore: $2M_1+2M_2\geq8$

- Low-grade ore: $4M_1+12M_2\geq24$

- No negative hours: $M_1,M_2\geq0$

We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.

In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.

In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.

Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.

(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).

The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.

The cost function graph is attached.

An agreement between Jim and his 18-year-old daughter, Betty, provides that he will give her $25,000 if she does not marry until

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

No, Jim is not correct.

Explanation:

Betty will win this case.

Generally, the law encourages marriage as its policy. If there is any contract that prevent or restrict marriage in whatever way, such contract would be considered null and void because it is against the public policy.

Despite the above, contracts will be generally considered valid when they place reasonable restrictions on marriage. In this question, the restriction placed on Betty that she should get married until after her 22nd birthday is reasonable and has to be considered to be valid. Based on this, Betty has to be paid the $25,000 as laid down in the binding contract between the two parties.

Therefore, Jim is not correct.
