Answer:

413.126

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution :

Mean (m) = 405

Standard deviation (s) = 19

Weight of fruit will be greater than how many grams (x) if picked 17% of the time:

P(Z > x) = 0.17 ;

The Zscore for P(Z > x) = 0.17 equals 0.954 (Z probability calculator)

Zscore = (x - m) / s

0.954 = (x - 405) / 19

0.954 * 19 = x - 405

18.126 = x - 405

x = 18.126 + 405

x = 423.126

Weight will be greater than 423.126

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Builtrite D should purchase the machine

Step-by-step explanation:

Cash outflow in year zero = $ 500,000 + $ 25,000 ( training cost ) + $ 30,000 ( Net working capital)

Cash outflow in year zero = $ 555,000

Terminal cash flow in year 10  = $ 150,000 + $ 30,000 ( NWC)

Terminal cash flow in year 10  = $ 180,000

Operating cash flow per year = [ Savings - expenses - depreciation ] X ( 1 - tax rate) + depreciation

Net present value = -500,000 + \frac{116,000}{1.15^1} + \frac{116,000}{1.15^2} +...+ \frac{180,000}{1.15^{10}}

The Net present value of purchasing the machine = $32,071.42

Builtrite D should purchase the machine
