Read the following except from a warranty. What time period is this warranty for? "This warranty is given by XYZ motors. The Zoo

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The warranty period is for three years.

Explanation:

A warranty is a promise a buyer receives from the seller that the latter will repair or replace the product should it develop defects within a stated period. Warranties are granted with specific conditions. The universal condition is that the defects in the product are a result of the manufacturing process and not the buyers' misuse. The defect must occur within a stated period.

In the case of XYZ, the stated period is three years. However, the seller has introduced another condition of "or 30,000 miles whichever comes first." For business reasons, and from market experience, the seller expects that XYZ will use the vehicle at an average rate of 10,000 miles per year. At this rate, the warranty will last for three years. Should the buyer use the vehicle at a faster rate than this, the 30,000 miles will be exhausted earlier, which will bring the warranty to an end. If XYZ uses the vehicle at a slower or the expected rate, the warranty will last for three years.

Automobile repair costs continue to rise with the average cost now at $367 per repair.† Assume that the cost for an automobile r

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a) 0.1728

b) 0.09183

c) 0.7354

d) $ 222.25

Explanation:

Given

mean = $\mu$ = $367

Standard deviation = $\sigma$ =$88

Cost of automobile repair is normally distributed.

a) We have to find P( x > 450 )

P( x > 450 ) = 1 - P( x <= 450 )

Using excel function, P( x <= x ) = NORMDIST (x, $\mu$ , $\sigma$ , 1 )

P( x > 450 ) = 1 - NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 )

= 1 - 0.8272 = 0.1728

P( x > 450 ) = 0.1728

b) P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( x < 250 ) = 0.09183

c) P( 250 < x < 450 ) = P( x <450 ) - P( x < 250 )

P( x <450 ) = NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.8272

P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.8272 - 0.09183 = 0.7354

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.7354

d) We have P( X < a ) = 0.05

We have to find a.

Using Excel, = NORMINV ( Probability, $\mu$ , $\sigma$ )

a = NORMINV ( 0.05 , 367, 88 ) = 222.2529

Cost = $ 222.25

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: $603,500

Explanation:

Ending inventory in 2014;

= Ending inventory balance 2013 + (( $\frac{Inventory current price 2014}{Price index 2014}$ * 100) - ending inventory 2013)) * Price index 2014/100

= 550,000 + (( $\frac{642,000}{107}* 100$ ) - 550,000)) * 107/100

= $603,500
