Answer:

NPV = $-41,928.18

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:

Cash flow in year 0 = $-300,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 10 = $42,000

I = 10%

NPV = $-41,928.18

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

Answer:

b. $258,072

Explanation:

PERIOD CASH FLOW NET PRESENT VALUE

Year 1 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{1}} = 38181.82$

Year 2 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{2}} = 34710.74$

Year 3 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{3}} = 31555.22$

Year 4 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{4}} = 28686.57$

Year 5 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{5}} = 26078.70$

Year 6 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{6}} = 23707.91$

Year 7 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{7}} = 21552.64$

Year 8 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{8}} = 19593.31$

Year 9 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{9}} = 17812.10$

Year 10 $42,000 $\frac{42000}{(1 + 0.10)^{10}} = 16192.82$

Total $258,071.83

Answer:

Customer relationship management (CRM).

Explanation:

CRM is an acronym for customer relationship management and it typically involves the process of combining strategies, techniques, practices and technology so as to effectively and efficiently manage their customer data in order to improve and enhance customer satisfaction. Therefore, these employees are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the customer are satisfied and happy with their service at all times.

This ultimately implies that, customer relationship is focused on developing an ongoing connection between a business firm (organization) and all of its customers, as well as potential customers. The fundamentals of customer relationship is based on improving marketing communications, sales support, technical assistance and customer service so as to bring satisfaction to the customers.

Hence, the degree of satisfaction received by customers throughout their lifecycle is largely dependent on customer relationship management.

Problems and applications q6 darnell loves playing rock 'n' roll music at high volume. jacques loves opera and hates rock 'n' ro

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

The Coase theorem states that parties in dispute should seek an optimal solution to their problem regardless of how property rights were initially distributed.

In this case, you need to find an agreement that satisfies both Darnell and Jacques regardless of who initially would have been considered to be right about the argument. Conflicts over rights to use property can be solved when parties settle on the efficient use of inputs. E.g. they could establish hours at which Darnell can listen to rock n' roll, and other hours when he shouldn't. That way both of them can enjoy the music they like and not bother the neighbors.

An optimal solution can always be reached regardless of initial distribution of rights.

Repair calls are handled by one repairman at a photocopy shop. Repair time, including travel time, is exponentially distributed,

wolverine [178]

Answer:

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

the system utilization = 42

the amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 4.64 hours

the probability of two or more customers in the system = 0.1764

Explanation:

Given that :

Repair time, including travel time = mean of 1.6 hours per call.

Requests for copier repairs = mean rate of 2.1 per eight-hour day

i.e mean rate R = 2.1/day

Time = 8 hours

thus; mean rate μ = 8 hours/ 1.6 hours = 5

(a)

Let the average number of customers awaiting repairs be $I_i$ :

$I_i = \dfrac{R^2}{\mu (\mu-R)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{2.1^2}{5 (5-2.1)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{5 (2.9)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{14.5}$

$\mathbf{I_i = 0.30}$

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

(b) Determine system utilization.

The system utilization is determined as follows:

$\delta = \dfrac{R}{\mu}$

$\delta = \dfrac{2.1}{5}$

${\delta = 0.42}$

$\mathbf{\delta = 42}$

(c) The amount of time during an eight-hour day that the repairman is not out on a call is calculated as :

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - $\delta$

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - 0.42

Percentage of Idle time = 0.58

However during an 8 hour day; The amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 0.58 × 8 = 4.64 hours

(d)

the probability of two or more customers in the system by assuming Poisson Distribution is:

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - (P₀+ P₁)

where;

P₀ = 0.58

P₁ = 0.58 × 0.42 = 0.2436

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - ( 0.58 + 0.2436)

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.8236

P(N ≥ 2) = 0.1764

Thus; the probability of two or more customers in the system is 0.1764
