Answer: $595

Explanation:

First find the probability of a $2,000 loss.

= 1 - other probabilities

= 1 - 0.6 - 0.05 - 0.13

= 0.22

Expected cost to the publishing company is a weighted average of the costs:

= (0 * 0.60) + (500 * 0.05) + (1,000 * 0.13) + (2,000 * 0.22)

= $595

Which of the following is correct regarding expectancy theory? Group of answer choices Effort is only useful in improving motiva
madam [21]

"An effort is only useful in improving motivation levels in employees with specialized jobs" is correct regarding expectancy theory.

<h3>What is expectancy theory?</h3>

Victor Vroom of the Yale School of Management put forth the expectation hypothesis in 1964. According to the expectation theory, a person's motivation is determined by their level of desire for a reward, their assessment of the likelihood that their efforts will result in the expected performance (Expectancy), and their conviction that their efforts will pay off once they meet their expectations (Instrumentality).

Expectancy is the conviction that stronger efforts will yield better results. Expectations are affected by things like having the necessary skills to do the job, having access to the resources you need, being able to receive the information you need, and receiving the necessary support to get the task done.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing table to your question

Illinois​ Furniture, Inc., produces all types of office furniture. The​ "Executive Secretary" is a chair that has been designed using ergonomics to provide comfort during long work hours. The chair sells for​ $130. There are 480 minutes available during the​ day, and the average daily demand has been 50 chairs. There are eight tasks

answer : a) 9.6 minutes

               b) 5 work stations

               c) choose initial task and task with maximum task time

               d) 21 minutes

Explanation:

A) cycle time for the production of a chair

cycle time = (production time available per day ) / ( unit demand per day )

                 = 480 minutes / 50 chairs

                 = 9.6 minutes ≈ 10 minutes

B) theoretical minimum number of workstations

    = Total task / cycle time

 where total task = (4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 6 ) = 49 minutes

             cycle time = 9.6 minutes

hence theoretical minimum number of workstations = 49 / 9.6 = 5.1

 ≈ 5 workstations

C ) Assignment of tasks to workstations

      attached below

you will choose the initial/first task and also the task with maximum tax time

D) For the process the total idle time per cycle

total idle time = summation of all idle times for the 8 tasks = 21 minutes

Task A, C = 0 minutes

Task B = 3 minutes

Task E = 4 MINUTES

Task F = 3

Task G = 2

Task H = 4

Task D = 5
