Answer:

(a) 3.2

(b) 10 minutes

(c) 0.8

Explanation:

Mean number of customer in service:

= Arrival rate ÷ service rate

= 24 in 60 min ÷ 30 in 60 min

= 24 ÷ 30

= 0.8

a) Average number of people in line:

= (Mean number of customer in service × arrival rate) ÷ (Service rate - arrival rate)

= 0.8 × (24 ÷ 6 )

= 3.2

b) Average time spend at the ticket office is = 10 minutes

c) Proportion of time server is busy:

= Arrival rate ÷  service rate

= (24 in 60 min ÷  30 in 60 min)

= 24 ÷ 30

= 0.8

victus00 [196]

Answer:<u><em> Elle's coffee has lots of close substitutes while coffee has few substitutes, so the demand for Elle's coffee is more elastic than the market demand for coffee.</em></u>

A stock with a beta of 0.8 has an expected rate of return of 12%. If the market return this year turns out to be 5 percentage po
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is:  The expected rate of return for the stock would be around 7%.

Explanation:

The Beta coefficient is a numeral measure that portraits the volatility of a stock compared to the overall market performance. If a stock's beta is closed to the numerical value one (1) it implies it is highly correlated to the price movement of the overall market.

In that case, if a stock's beta is 0.8 it implies it follows the market price movements. If the stock expected rate return is 12% but the market return turns out to be 5% points below expectations, it means the stock's return would end up being around 7%.
