Answer:

Reorder point = (weekly demand * lead time) + (Z * standard deviation * √lead time) = (294 * 10) + (2.326 * 90 * √10) = 2,940 + 661.99 = 3,602 units

Old safety stock = Z * standard deviation * √lead time = 662 units

new safety stock = 331

331 = Z * 90 * √10

Z = 331 / 284.60 = 1.163

Using Normal distribution function, the new confidence interval is 87.76%

Suppose, before the 2016 presidential elections, the League of Women Voters wanted to sponsor a three-way debate among the leadi
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

No. Clinton would lose the right to use that time.

Explanation:

As you may already know, during a presidential election it is common for candidates to participate in debates. These debates allow them to express their views on important factors in national politics, as well as giving these candidates the opportunity to present their political ideas, what they stand for and why they deserve your vote.

The debates must be held in a democratic way, allowing all candidates to have equal opportunities in terms of time and condition to speak. Within a debate, the time set aside for one candidate must be equal to the time set aside for the other, however, if one of the candidates refuses to participate in the debate, he / she loses the right to that time and cannot use it in a ground cover to promote your company.
