Investing $2,000,000 in TQM's Channel Support Systems initiative will at a minimum increase demand for your products 3.0% in thi

s and in all future rounds. (Refer to the TQM Initiative worksheet in the CompXM Decisions menu.) Looking at the Round 0 Inquirer for Andrews, last year's sales were $163,508,343. Assuming similar sales next year, the 3.0% increase in demand will provide $4,905,250 of additional revenue. With the overall contribution margin of 34.1%, after direct costs this revenue will add $1,672,690 to the bottom line. For simplicity, assume that the demand increase and margins will remain at last year's levels. How long will it take to achieve payback on the initial $2,000,000 TQM investment, rounded to the nearest month?

a. 14 months

Answer:

Option (a) is correct answer (14 Months)

Explanation:

Given data

Investing in TQM = $2,000,000

Minimum rise in demand = 3.0 %

Last year’s sales = $163,508,343

As per the given data next year sales is increased by 3.0%. So, 3.0% of last year sales

=> 0.03 × $163,508,343 = $4,905,250.29 ~= $4,905,250

Income added to the bottom line = 34.1% of increased demand

=> 0.341 × $4,905,250 = $1,672,690.25~= $1,672,690

Payback on the initial $2,000,000 TQM investment can be attained in a period and can be computed by using the formula

=> (Investment in TQM / Revenue added to the bottom line) × 12

=> ($2,000,000 / $1,672,690) ×12 = 14.34 ~ = 14 Months

Over the next few years, many organizations will be collecting <u>vast </u>amounts of data on their employees ranging from engagement to well-being.

<h3>How is Big Data Collected?</h3>

Much of the big data that employees, persons, organizations generate come from three major sources:

  • Machine Data
  • Transactional Data
  • Social Data

Data collection and analysis provide insights that are useful for strategic decision-making. This is why organizations are looking to collect and analyze them.

A. Bias by placement, because bias by labeling would be something to the effect of calling the liberals point of view  uneducated, or giving there view some negative label, bias by omission would mean completely ignoring the other side, and not covering it at all, whereas all the other ones don't really fit, bias by placement is something to the effect of airing one side in the morning, while everyone is watching, and airing the other one after everyone is asleep, which is what is done here, which we know by the sentence "<span>liberal point of view at the end."</span>

Granite Construction Company is considering selling excess machinery with a book value of $175,000 (original cost of $315,000 le
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Sell option is preferred.

Explanation:

The decision whether to lease out the machinery that is surplus to requirement or sell outrightly is dependent on the differential analysis performed below.In the analysis I have compared the profits under each option in order to guide the final decision:

Differential analysis as at 7th November(Sale or lease option)                      

                                                                         Sell option              lease option

revenue   from sell/lease option                        $180,000                 $200,000

Brokerage commission(5%*$180,000)                 ($9,000)                        -

costs of repairs,insurance and property taxes          -                        ($34,400)

Profits                                                                        $171,000              $165,600

The sell option provides $5400($171,000-$165,600) than the lease option,hence the sell option is preferred.

One would have expect that the lease option since it has more revenue to preferable but the costs of repairs,insurance and property taxes were also on the high side

Vladimir [108]

The first advice I would give Mr. Peterson would be to formalize the transfer. So the first step in this situation would be to contact a good lawyer to see if the transfer of business to your child would be authorized. This is because the transfer of LLCs has rules that may differ from one location to another.
