You and your friends hike a total of 8 miles to the nearest campsite (Activity A). Upon arriving you break off into teams. One t

eam will set up tents and hammocks for everyone to sleep in (Activity B). At the same time, another team will get wood for a fire (Activity C). Once they have the wood, that same team then proceeds to start the fire (Activity D). The third team will walk to find water (Activity E) and once they find it they will to collect water and bring it back to camp (Activity F). Once the fire is ready and the water is brought back to camp the two groups- the one collecting firewood and the one collecting water- will then purify the water (Activity G). Once the camp is set up and the water is purified everyone will come together and cook dinner around the campfire (Activity H). Once dinner is prepared and eaten half of the group stays behind to put out the fire (Activity I) and half of the group walks away from the campsite to dispose of the food waste (Activity J). After disposing of the food waste the second half of the group returns to the camp (Activity K). Once everyone is at the campsite the day of camping ends

                                    to complete         to Complete          to Complete

A Hike to the campsite       3                          5                          8

J Dispose of food waste    0.5                      2                          3

K Return from food

 waste disposal                0.25                     1                           2

Total time                         12.25                  27                          45

Critical path: Activity A - Activity B

                     Activity A - Activity C 3 - Activity D 2 - Activity E 1 - Activity F 2

Activity G 2 - Activity H 3 - Activity I and J 2 - Activity K 1

= 3 + 2 + 1 + 2+ 2 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 16 minutes

Length of time to complete the entire process = 27 - 4 = 23

The critical path identifies the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time required to complete them from start to finish.

When Galaxy Ventures, a real estate company, entered the low-cost housing business, the market was already saturated with other
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The answer is Late-mover disadvantages

Explanation:

A late mover is a company that enters a business some time after the business pioneers and early followers.

From the question above, Galaxy Ventures is a late mover in the low-cost housing business. They were at a huge disadvantage, and this includes:

  • First of all, lack of customer loyalty and substantial dividends (from the question).
  • The pioneers and early followers can set the business standards which may be difficult for a late mover to follow.
  • The pioneer can easily create entry barriers that a late-mover might find difficult to break.

Ratling [72]

Answer:

net capitalized cost is = $450000

so correct option is b. $450,000

Explanation:

given data

capitalized software costs = $600,000

expected total sales = 10%

sale = 4 year

net realizable value = $480,000

solution

we find out net capitalized cost of computer software that is  

net capitalized cost of computer software is =  Year 1 balance - Year 2 amortization ........................1

here we get first Year 2 amortization that is

Year 2 amortization is = capitalized software costs ÷ total projected sale ..............2

put here value

Year 2 amortization = \frac{600000}{4}  

Year 2 amortization is = $150,000

so here we get net capitalized cost

net capitalized cost is = $600,000 - $150,000

net capitalized cost is = $450000

so correct option is b. $450,000

Asynchronous Testing of 2 Specimen-Diversion Devices to Reduce Blood Culture Contamination: A Single-Site Product Supply Quality
jasenka [17]

Skin antisepsis kits having alcohol and chlorhexidine gluconate or tincture of iodine are associated with low rates of blood culture contamination.

<h3>Skin antisepsis kits</h3>

Skin preparation is an important factor in declining the rate of blood culture contamination. We evaluated blood culture contamination rates associated with the use of skin antisepsis kits including either 2% alcoholic chlorhexidine gluconate or 2% alcoholic tincture of iodine.

Contamination of blood cultures is a typical problem, with rates for organizations ranging from 2% to more than 6%. Most contaminants produced from blood cultures are indigenous human microbial flora. Careful skin practice is an important factor in reducing the rate of blood culture contamination.
