In the case when the design would be made with regard to management support system so it would be significant to remeber that the executives should not care for the sales amount or figures as they do not play any kind of role in the management support system.

So the same would be relevant

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: Baby Boomer.

Explanation:

To begin with, the term<em> ''baby boomer''</em> refers to the demographic cohort regarding the generation of people born in the period called ''baby boom'', that occured in some was after the Second World War and comprehends the years between 1946 until 1964. Moreover, the main characteristic of this period was that around 76 million babies were born in America and that an excessive consumerism began to spread.

To continue, the action that Christie advocates is very common to a person of the baby boom generation due to the fact that those people born and grew in times that there was no internet and therefore they tend to give no importance to the online ads and stuff like that.

Bristo Corporation has sales of 1,000 units at $60 per unit. Variable expenses are 40% of the selling price. If total fixed expe

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

3.60

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales units = 1,000

Sales price per unit = $60

Variable expenses = 40% of the selling price

Total Fixed cost = $26,000

Contribution margin per unit:

= Selling price - Variable cost

= $60 - ($60 × 40%)

= $60 - $24

= $36

Total contribution:

= Contribution margin per unit × Sales units

= $36 × 1,000

= $36,000

Profit = Total contribution - Fixed cost

= $36,000 - $26,000

= $10,000

Degree of operating leverage:

= (Sales - Variable costs) ÷ (Sales - Variable costs - Fixed Expenses)

= (60,000 - 24,000) ÷ (60,000 - 24,000 - 26,000)

= 36,000 ÷ 10,000

= 3.60

raketka [301]

Here is the correct question.

A cylindrical part of diameter d is loaded by an axial force p. this causes a stress of P/A, where A= πd²/4. if the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10 percent, the diameter is known within ±5 percent (tolerances), and the stress that causes failure (strength) is known within ±15 percent, determine the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail.

Answer:

the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434

Explanation:

Looking at the uncertainty; loss of strength must be raised to $\dfrac{1}{0.85}$ due to the stress that causes the failure (strength) is known within ±15% uncertainty.

Looking at the uncertainty; the maximum allowable load must be reduced to $\dfrac{1}{1.1}$ because the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10.

Looking at the uncertainty; the diameter must be raised to $\dfrac{1}{0.95}$ because the diameter is known within an uncertainty of ±5.

The decrease in the maximum allowable stress can be estimated as:

$\sigma' = \dfrac{P'}{A'}$

where,

$\sigma =$ stress

P = load

A = cross-sectional area of the cylinder

∴

$\sigma' = \dfrac{P'}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(d')^2}$

replacing P' with $\dfrac{1}{1.1}P$ and d' with $\dfrac{1}{0.95}d$ , we have:

$\sigma' = \dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{1.1})\times p }{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(\dfrac{1}{0.95 } d)^2 }$

$\sigma' =\dfrac{P}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2} (\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1.1} }{(\dfrac{1}{0.95})^2 }) }$

$\sigma' =\sigma \times (\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1.1} }{(\dfrac{1}{0.95})^2 }) }$

$\sigma' =\sigma \times 0.82045$

$\dfrac{\sigma' }{\sigma } =0.82045$

Thus, the uncertainty in diameter and the load of the allowable stress needs to decrease to 0.82045

Now, the minimum design factor that will ascertain that the part will not fail can be computed as:

$n_d = \dfrac{loss \ of \ function \ parameter }{maximum \ allowable \ parameter}$

where;

the design factor = $n_d$

$n_d =\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{0.85} }{0.82045}$

the design factor $n_d$ = 1.434.

Thus, the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434
