Answer:

5673 finished goods

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of finished goods required = 5550

Expected percentage theft within the warehouse prior to shipping = 0.5%

Expected percentage damages as a result of transportation = 1.7%

Now,

Number of Expected theft within the warehouse prior to shipping

= \frac{0.5}{100}\times5550

= 27.75 units ≈ 28

and,

Number of Expected damages as a result of transportation

= \frac{1.7}{100}\times5550

= 94.35 units ≈ 95

thus,

number of units of goods to be extra to begin with = 28 + 95

= 123 units

Hence,

there should be 5550 + 123 = 5673 finished goods so as to counter the theft and damages.

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

2:25pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The time given is 5pm to catch the train back to school;

Amount of time for the tour  = 1hr 45min

                                               = 105min

Amount of time at gift shop  = 30min

Amount of time to save  = 20min

 Total time = 105min + 30min + 20min  = 155min

So;

Total time  = 2hr 35min

So;

        5pm - 2hr 35min  = 2:25pm
