Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a) utilization is

= customer per hour ÷ number of booths × service rate

For ticket counter

= 180 ÷  2 ×  (1 ÷ .75)

= 180 ÷  2 × 1.33

= 67.67

= 68 %

For  refreshment counter

= 180 × 0.85 ÷  8 × (1 ÷ 3)

= 153 ÷  2.64

= 57.95

= 58%

b)capacity is

= no. of resources ÷ processing time

= 2+8 ÷ 45+180

= 10 ÷ 225

= 0.044

= 0.04 customer per second

= 144 customer per hour

The flow rate of customer per hour is 144 customer

c) 1 resource added to ticket booth is

= 11 ÷ 225

= 0.048

= 176 customer per hour

disa [49]

falling unemployment and rising inflation.

Before the 1970s, classical economists stated that an inverse relationship existed between the inflation rate and the unemployment rate. This means that when the inflation rate was increasing, the unemployment rate should be decreasing. But reality does not follow theoretical rules.

Computech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings; hence, it does not pay dividends.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

P₀ = $12.23

Explanation:

Div₃ = $1.25

Div₄ = $1.65

Div₅ = $2.178

Div₆ = $2.30868

first we must calculate the terminal value using the dividend discount model = $2.30868 / (17% - 6%) = $20.988

now we must discount all the future dividends + terminal value

P₀ = $1.25/1.17³ + $1.65/1.17⁴ + $2.178/1.17⁵ + $20.988/1.17⁵ = $12.23
