The daily demand for parts from a machining workcell JMB to an assembly workcell is 1,600 units. The average processing time is

25 seconds per unit. A container spends, on average, 6 hours waiting at JMB before it is processed. Each container holds 250 parts. Currently 10 containers are being used for the part.
What percent safety margin of stock is being carried?

If you wanted to retain the safety margin, but remove one container, to what value must the waiting time be reduced?

What would happen if the demand for the parts increased to 1,900 with K = 10?

Answer:

Daily demand for parts = 1600 units

Avg processing time = 25 seconds.

Capacity of a container = 250 units

Waiting time of a container before the JMB = 6 hours

Number of containters currently deployed = 10

Solution:

Total number of parts carried by the containter = 10 x 250 = 2500 parts.

Total numbers carried in excess as safety stock = 2500-1600 = 900

Percentage of safety stock = (900/1600) x 100 = 56.25%

If one container is removed total parts carried = 2250 units

Processing time at machine for 250 parts after loading in JMB = 250 x 25 seconds = 1.736 hours, but it has to wait for another 4.26 hours for the next container to be loaded because of the waiting time of the containter is 6 hours.

Processing time at machine for 1600 parts = 1600 x 25 seconds = 11.11 hours

Number of containers required for 1600 parts = 1600/250= 6.4 ~ 7 containters

Waiting time of 7 containers = 7 x 4.26 = 29.82 hours.

If one of the containers has to be removed 1600 parts has to be carried in 6 containers ie., 29.82hours - 6 hours = 23.82hours

Waiting time per container before loading = 23.82/6 = 3.97 hours.

Reduced Total waiting time of the container = 3.97 hours + the processing time of 250 parts = 3.97 + 1.736 =5.7hours ~ 5 hours and 42 minutes

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a-The present value of revenue in the first year is $61,085.92.

b-The total time it would take to pay for its price is 2.44 years of 29.33 months.

Explanation:

a-

Let the function of the revenue earned is given as

S(t)=\left \{ {{66000t+38000} {\ \ 0The present value is given as [tex]PV=\int\limits^a_b {S(t)e^{-rt}} \, dt

Here

  • a and b are the limits of integral which are 0 and 1 respectively
  • r is the rate of interest which is 5% or 0.05
  • S(t) is the function of value which is S(t)=\left \{ {{66000t+38000} {\ \ 0So the equation becomes[tex]PV=\int\limits^0_1 {S(t)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\PV=\int\limits^{0.5}_0 {(66000t+38000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt+\int\limits^{1}_{0.5}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\PV=\int\limits^{0.5}_0 {(66000t)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt+\int\limits^{0.5}_0 {(38000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt+\int\limits^{1}_{0.5}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\PV=8113.7805+18764.4669+34207.6751\\PV=61085.9225

    So the present value of revenue in the first year is $61,085.92.

    b-

    The time in which the machine pays for itself is given as

    PV=\int\limits^0_1 {S(t)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt+\int\limits^t_1 {S(t)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\PV=61085.9225+\int\limits^{t}_{1}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt

    The present value is set equal to the value of machine which is given as

    $160,000 so the equation becomes:

    PV=61085.9225+\int\limits^{t}_{0}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\160000=61085.9225+\int\limits^{t}_{0}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt\\\int\limits^{t}_{0}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt=160000-61085.9225\\\int\limits^{t}_{1}{(71000)e^{-0.05t}} \, dt=98914.07\\\\t=-\dfrac{\ln \left(0.93034\right)}{0.05}\\t=1.44496

    So the total time it would take to pay for its price is 2.44 years of 29.33 months.

What are the two characteristics of public goods? is u.s. border control a public good or a private good? why? how about satelli
Cloud [144]

Two main characteristics of Public goods are that they are non-excludability and non-competitiveness. These characteristics make it difficult for market producers to sell their goods to the individual consumers. The Non-excludable means that it is expensive or impossible for users to exclude other users from using the product.

The US Border Patrol is a Public Good US Border Patrol is a public good because it is the non-competitive and non-exclusive. The Satellite TV is personal property. Equilibrium output is greater than efficient output when negative externalities exist in the market. Use the regulations that require firms to internalize  external costs.

<h3>How does general interest rate risk work?</h3>

Interest-rate risk (IRR) is the exposure of a financial institution to unfavorable changes in interest rates. Accepting this risk is common practice in the banking industry and can be a key driver of profitability and shareholder value.

Explanation:

Given that the bond's face value is $400 000

Bond selling price: $370,000

yield until maturity equals 12%

Bond has a fair value of $365,000.

Value shifted = $2,000

Net income and OCI are both included in comprehensive income.

Activity-based costing accumulates overhead in one cost pool, then:_____.a. assigns the overhead to products and services by mea
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

c. allocates overhead to activity cost pools, and it then assigns the activity cost pools to products and services by means of cost drivers.

Explanation:

The activity based costing is the costing that helps to allocated the indirect cost or we can say the manufacturing overhead cost with the help of the many cost drivers  or the many activity cost pools

Like if we allocate the setup cost so we have to allocated with the number of machine setups.

For the inspection cost, the number of inspections is required so that the allocation could be done
