The following data are available for the four steps: A B C D Activity time per unit (min) 0.25 0.33 0.2 0.5 Capacity per worker

(units/min) 4 3 5 2 Number of workers 2 3 2 4 Suppose the steps in activity D are made easier, so the activity time per unit in step D is reduced by 50% (to 0.25 min per unit). If the assignment of workers to steps remains the same, what is the capacity of the entire process in units per min after the activity time per unit in step D is reduced by 50%

Solution :

                                                                  A              B            C              D

The Activity of time per unit(min) (X)     0.25          0.33       0.2          0.5

Capacity per worker(units/min) (Y)          4              3             5             2

Number of workers (Z)                            2               3              2            4

Capacity (Units/min) (ZxY)                       8               9             10           8

A and D re the bottlenecks with a minimum capacity of 8 units/min

Hence, initial system capacity = 8 units/min

It is given that activity time per unit in D step is $\text{reduced by 0.25}$  min per unit

Capacity/worker = 1/0.25 = 4 per min

Number of worker for D = 4

New capacity of D per min = 4 x 4 = 16 units

Steps                                       A          B            C              D    

New capacity(units/min)        8           9            10             16

Therefore now, step A is the bottleneck as it has the lowest capacity of 8 units/min.

Capacity of the entire process = 8 units/min

When supply increases, the supply curve
MariettaO [177]

When supply increases, the supply curve  shifts to the right.

<h3>What is the supply curve?</h3>

This is the curve that is used to show the amount of goods that the producers would be able to make available for the market at a particular price. The supply curve shifts to the right when there is an increase in supply in the economy.

Hence this answers our question by saying that When supply increases, the supply curve  shifts to the right.

Income rises from $3,500 to $4,000 a month and the quantity demanded of good X falls from 7 to 5 units a month. Income elasticit
finlep [7]

Answer:

E) -2.50 ; inferior

Explanation:

Before you earned $3,500 per month, you consumed 7 units per month. That means that you consumed 1 unit every $500 earned.

When your income increased to $4,000, you only consumed 5 units per month. That means that your consumption decreased to 1 unit for every $800.

The income elasticity of demand using the midpoint method is calculated by using the following formula:

income elasticity = {change in quantity demanded / [(old quantity + new quantity) / 2]} /  {change in income / [(old income + new income) / 2]}  

= {-2 / [(7 + 5) / 2]} /  {500 / [(3,500 + 4,000) / 2]} = (-2 / 6) / (500 / 3,750) = -0.333 / 0.133 = -2.5

Since the income elasticity of demand is negative, the good X is an inferior good.

galben [10]

Answer:

Loan Amortization Table is attached with this answer, please find it

Explanation:

First of all we calculate the Loan Payment per period

Loan Payment per year = r ( PV ) / 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n

Loan Payment per year = 0.11 ( (102,049 - 40,000 ) / 1 - ( 1 + 0.11 )^-4

Loan Payment per year = $6,825.39 / 0.341269 = 20,000 per year
