Repair calls are handled by one repairman at a photocopy shop. Repair time, including travel time, is exponentially distributed,

wolverine [178]

Answer:

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

the system utilization = 42

the amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 4.64 hours

the probability of two or more customers in the system = 0.1764

Explanation:

Given that :

Repair time, including travel time = mean of 1.6 hours per call.

Requests for copier repairs = mean rate of 2.1 per eight-hour day

i.e mean rate R = 2.1/day

Time = 8 hours

thus; mean rate μ = 8 hours/ 1.6 hours = 5

(a)

Let the average number of customers awaiting repairs be $I_i$ :

$I_i = \dfrac{R^2}{\mu (\mu-R)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{2.1^2}{5 (5-2.1)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{5 (2.9)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{14.5}$

$\mathbf{I_i = 0.30}$

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

(b) Determine system utilization.

The system utilization is determined as follows:

$\delta = \dfrac{R}{\mu}$

$\delta = \dfrac{2.1}{5}$

${\delta = 0.42}$

$\mathbf{\delta = 42}$

(c) The amount of time during an eight-hour day that the repairman is not out on a call is calculated as :

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - $\delta$

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - 0.42

Percentage of Idle time = 0.58

However during an 8 hour day; The amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 0.58 × 8 = 4.64 hours

(d)

the probability of two or more customers in the system by assuming Poisson Distribution is:

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - (P₀+ P₁)

where;

P₀ = 0.58

P₁ = 0.58 × 0.42 = 0.2436

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - ( 0.58 + 0.2436)

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.8236

P(N ≥ 2) = 0.1764

Thus; the probability of two or more customers in the system is 0.1764

Which of the following practices will lead to effective recognition and rewarding of employees? Select one: a. Tying rewards to

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Rewarding behavior, not just results

Explanation:

Effective recognition means that you have to recognize the effort that being put by the person , not just the ideal outcome.

Let's say that you want to influence your employees to improve their productivity. There is a chance that some might fall and some might succeed.

Those who fall does not necessarily make lesser effort than those who success. There is a chance that they're focusing their effort on the wrong things.

In such situations, you need to acknowledge and reward the fact that they're willing putting the effort and give them advice on how to nudge the effort's direction so it become more effective.

ABC, a U.S. company sends by fax an offer to sell to XYZ, a French company, 1,000,000 widgets for $1.00 a widget. XYZ sends back

galben [10]

Answer:

The correct option is B. False.

Further explanation is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Offer From ABC Company to XYZ Company:

1,000,000 widgets to sell.

Selling Price of 1 widget = $1.00

Total Price = $1,000,000

Counter Offer from XYZ company to ABC Company.

Selling Price = $0.75

Total Price = 0.75 x 1,000,000 = $750,000

But in the end, ABC company sold its widgets to GHK company.

The correct option to this question is false.

This case is false because here ABC sends an original offer of $1 but XYZ sent a counter offer of $0.75. This counter offer was then duly rejected by ABC.

XYZ cannot again confirm and accept the original offer of ABC because they have already rejected your claim and thus XYZ have to wait until ABC make them another offer.
