Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

The name of my organization is Prime Plc. known for the production of confectionaries. The Production Department in my organization has been experiencing frequent equipment failures quite recently. A close investigation showed that the delays were caused by a breakdown of the sugar mills, mixers and, coating machines. This has resulted in delays in the production process. To improve these failures, I believe that the organization should:

1. Employ Technicians who can quickly carry out repair work on these machines when they breakdown instead of outsourcing the repair work for this would take a longer amount of time to get the machines up and running.

2. Introduce the periodic maintenance of these machines. Machines are subject to wear and tear, so I would suggest that the maintenance of these machines is carried out within intervals of three months.

3. Train the production personnel on the proper usage of these machines. Production personnel should be updated on current and effective ways of handling machines so as to guarantee their safety and longer use.

4. Make provisions for backup machinery and equipment. The organization would do well to purchase backup equipment especially for machines that the organization cannot do without so that in the event of an equipment failure, the production process would not be stalled.

When these measures are considered, there would be a significant improvement in the production department.

Theresa​ Corporation, which manufactures​ baskets, is developing direct labor standards. The basic direct labor rate is​ $21.00
wel

Answer:

Standard rate per direct labor hour is $27.1

Explanation:

Standard rate per direct labor hour includes the hourly pay rate, Payroll taxes and fringe benefits. For Theresa Corporation,

We have given that

Basic direct labor rate is $21.00 per hour

Payroll Taxes is 10% of basic direct labor rate i.e. 10% of $21.00 = $2.10 per hour

Fringe Benefits is $4.00 per hour.

compared with the network evening news shows (those on abc, nbc, and cbs), cable news stations such as msnbc, fox news, and cnn
Orlov [11]

While network evening newscasts have stayed fairly constant throughout the years, the news programs that Americans watch on local television stations and national cable channels have altered substantially in recent years.

<h3>What change has been noticed?</h3>

Local television newscasts have recently emphasized traffic, weather, and sports, even more, aired less edited package stories, and cut the lengths of stories—trends that might be a result of the industry's current economic challenges.

There is a growing fear that local TV news may be suffering some of the financial difficulties that have already hammered the newspaper sector as younger people are tuning out local newscasts.
