Answer:

25%

Explanation:

The reorder point is the inventory management system in which a certain level of inventory is set as a trigger for reordering the stock. The probability to stocking out before the new order of envelopes arises is 25%. The lead time is normally distributed with mean of 10 boxes.

(reorder point - normally distributed mean) / standard deviation

15 boxes - 10 boxes / 3 boxes = 1.67

To calculate probability of stocking out for the company,

1.67 * 15 boxes reorder point = 25%

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The investment advisory firm which employs the investment adviser representative (IAR).

Explanation:

FINRA's rules specifically state that before any transaction, the IAR must have a signed power of attorney. The IAR cannot start trading or operating with the client's money until he/she has received a signed written power of attorney from the client. Only after the signed power of attorney has been given tot eh IAR, can he/she act on discretionary basis.

If the IAR is not a registered broker-dealer, then NASAA rules state that oral agreements are valid for up to 10 business days, but the IAR must have a written authorization after that time expires. I.e. the IAR could buy the stocks, but he/she was not authorized to sell them. So any loss is responsibility of the firm that employs the IAR.
