Larry Ellison starts a company that manufactures high-end custom leather bags. He hires two employees. Each employee only begins

working on a bag when a customer order has been received and then she makes the bag from beginning to end. The average production time of a bag is 1.8 days with a standard deviation of 2.7 days. Larry expects to receive one customer order per day on average. The interarrival times of orders have a coefficient of variation of 1. (Carry at least 4 decimal places in all intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

12.55 days

Explanation:

<em><u>Provided information </u></em>

Number of employees 2

Average production time=1.8 days

Standard deviation=2.7 days

Inter-arrival time= 1 day

Coefficient of variation= 1 day

Standard deviation of inter-arrival time= 1 day

The coefficient of variations

<u>Inter-arrival coefficient of variation </u>

C_{vi}=\frac {\sigma}{T} where \sigma is standard deviation of inter-arrival time, T is inter-arrival time and C_v is coefficient of variation of inter-arrival time

C_{vi}=\frac {1 day}{1 day}=1

<u>Production time coefficient of variation </u>

C_{vp}=\frac {2.7}{1.8}=1.5

<u><em>Total utilization time </em></u>

U=\frac {T}{n*T_i} where T is the time of production, n is number of employees, U is utilization, T_i is inter-arrival time

U=\frac {1.8}{2*1}=0.9

Therefore, utilization time by 2 employees is 0.9

<u>Expected average waiting time </u>

T_e=(\frac {T}{n*T_i})*0.5(C_{vi}^{2}+C_{vp}^{2})*(\frac{U^{\sqrt{2(n+1)}-1}}{1-U})

Where T_e is expected average waiting time and the other symbols as already defined

Substituting 1.5 for C_{vp}, 1 for C_{vi}, 0.9 for U, 2 for n, 1 for T_iand 1.8 for T

T_e=(\frac {1.8}{2*1})*0.5(1^{2}+1.5^{2})*(\frac{0.9^{\sqrt{2(2+1)}-1}}{1-0.9})

T_e=0.9*1.625*8.583709=12.55367 days  and rounding off to 2 decimal places we obtain 12.55 days

Therefore, expected duration between order received and beginning of production is approximately 12.55 days

Purple Cab Company had 50,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2018. On April 1, 2018, the company issued 20,000
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The basic earnings per share is $4.15

Explanation:

Earning Per Share : Earning Per share shows a ratio between net income and weighted average outstanding shares.

In mathematically,

Earning Per Share = Net income ÷ weighted average outstanding shares

where,

Net income = $269,915

And, On Jan 1, 2018 the share is 50,000 whereas on April, 2018 the shares is 20,000. But we have to calculated for the December period. From April to December there are 9 months.

So, April 2018 shares = 20,000 × 9 ÷ 12 months = 15,000 shares

Hence, total weighted average outstanding shares is  

= 50,000 +15,000

= 65,000 shares

Now, apply the above formula for computation

=  $269,915 ÷ 65,000 shares

= $4.15 per share

Thus,  the basic earnings per share is $4.15
