Explanation:

Run A Duration B Duration C Duration 1 51 48 17 2 60 48 19 3 30 39 19 4 31 48 22 5 30 31 14 6 41 16 17 7 44 12 6 8 44 12 10 9 45 43 9 10 60 41 10 Based on the simulated numbers given above, what is the average completion time of the whole project?

Since B is the predecessor of C.

Project completion time for each run will be calculated as Maximum (Duration of A, Duration of B +Duration of C).

Represent

Run = R

Duration of A  = DA

Duration of B  = DB

Duration of C = DC

Project Completion time = PT

<u>R       DA          DB                        DC               PT</u>

1       51            48                        17             48 + 17 = 65

2      60          48                        19             48 + 19 = 67  

4      31           48                       22              48 + 22 = 70

5      30         31                         14              31 + 14 = 45

6      41           16                       17                 41

7     44            12                       6                 44

8     44            12                      10                44

9     45           43                     9              43 + 9 = 52

10     60          41                     10                60

                                                                <u> Total = 546</u>

Total Project completion time in 10 Stimulations = 546

Average project Completion time = 546/10 = 54.6

Therefore, average Project completion time is between 53 and 56 days.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

$36,070

Explanation:

Given that,

Contribution margin ratio = 61%

Fixed monthly expenses = $47,500

sales = $137,000

Contribution margin:

= Sales × Contribution margin ratio

= $137,000 × 61%

= $83,570

Net income = Contribution margin - Fixed monthly expenses

                    = $83,570 - $47,500

                    = $36,070

Therefore, the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month is $36,070.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

I would prefer Asset B

Explanation:

A risk averse investor is the one who prefers lower amount of returns with known or specific risks instead of the higher amount of returns with unknown risks. So, from among the various level of risks, the investor will be preferring the alternative with the least interest.

So, in this case,

In Asset A: pay a return of $2,000 and at 20% of time and the $500 at 80% of time.

In Asset B: pay a return of $1,000 and at 50% of time and the $600 at 50% of time.

So, I would prefer, Asset B as it has low return but have a known risk that is of 50 -50.
