North Around, Inc. stock is expected to return 22 percent in a boom, 13 percent in a normal economy, and −15 percent in a recess

almond37 [142]

Answer:

4.53%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Expected return = ∑ (Return × probability)

Thus,

Expected return = (0.06 × 22) + (0.92 × 13) + (0.02 × (-15))

= 12.98%

Now,

Probability Return Probability × (Return-Expected Return)²

0.06 22 0.06 × (22% - 12.98%)² = 4.8816

0.92 13 0.92 × (13% - 12.98%)² = 0.000368

0.02 -15 0.02 × (-15% - 12.98%)² = 5.657608

========================================================

Total = 20.5396%

Standard deviation = $\sqrt{\frac{\text{Total probability}\times(\text{Return-Expected Return})^2}{\text{Total probability}}$

= √(20.5396)

= 4.53%

In the workplace, racial discrimination is a very serious issue. Consider a company in which 20% of the employees are African-Am

Tema [17]

Answer:

a) It is expected that 8 African-Americans get promotions.

b) There is a 8.6% probability that 5 African-Americans get promotions.

c) There is a 16.2% probability that at five or less African-Americans get promotions.

d) The company may be accused of racial discrimination because the ammount of promotions given to African-Americans is much less than expected if there were no discrimination. The expected value, if there is no discrimination, of having more than 5 promotions for African American employees is 84%.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete.

Complete question:

In the workplace, racial discrimination is a very serious issue. Consider a company in which 20% of the employees are African-American. At the end of the year, promotions are awarded to a group of employees. Out of the 40 promotions awarded, five are African-American. Given that the awarding follows the binomial distribution, B(40,.2).

a) How many African-Americans would you expect to get promotions?

b) What is the probability that five African-Americans receive promotions?

c) What is the probability that five or fewer African-Americans receive promotions?

d) Do you think the company is suspect of racial discrimination? Explain your thinking.

a) As this situation can be modeled by a binomial distribution B(40,0.2), the expected number of African-Americans that get promotions can be calculated as the expected value of the binomial distribution:

$X\sim B(40,0.2)\\\\E(X)=np=40*0.2=8$

It is expected that 8 African-Americans get promotions.

b) Accordingly to the binomial distribution, we have:

$P(X=5)=\frac{40!}{5!35!}*(0.2)^5*(0.8)^{35}=658008*0.00032*0.0004= 0.086$

There is a 8.6% probability that 5 African-Americans get promotions.

c) We have to calculate the probabilities for X=0,1,2,3,4 and 5.

$P(X\leq5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\\\P(X=0)=\frac{40!}{0!40!}*0.2^0*0.8^{40}=1*1*0.00013=0\\\\P(X=1)=\frac{40!}{1!39!}*0.2^1*0.8^{39}=40*0.2*0.00017=0.001\\\\P(X=2)=\frac{40!}{2!38!}*0.2^2*0.8^{38}=780*0.04*0.00021=0.007\\\\P(X=3)=\frac{40!}{3!37!}*0.2^3*0.8^{37}=9880*0.008*0.00026=0.021\\\\P(X=4)=\frac{40!}{4!36!}*0.2^4*0.8^{36}=91390*0.0016*0.00032=0.047\\\\P(X=5)=\frac{40!}{5!35!}*0.2^5*0.8^{35}=658008*0.00032*0.00041=0.086$

$P(X\leq5)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\P(X\leq5)=0+0.001+0.007+0.021+0.047+0.086=0.162$

There is a 16.2% probability that at five or less African-Americans get promotions.

d) The company may be accused of racial discrimination because the ammount of promotions given to African-Americans is much less than expected if there were no discrimination. The expected value, if there is no discrimination, of having more than 5 promotions for African American employees is 84%.

In column e, enter formulas that calculate the percentage of the grand total for each type of school supply (total cost of each

anyanavicka [17]

The formula to use get the % of grand totals is as follows:

after having the group subtotals, enter the formula SUBTOTAL(9,B2:B21) into a cell you need then press Enter key.

In a spreadsheet. this refers to the rectangular area that is formed by the intersection of a column and a row.

On a typical spreadsheet, every cells have its assigned code from Combination of Number 1-10 to Alphabet A-Z.

In order to calculate the percentage of the grand total for each type of school supply, we will need to enter a formula in the "% of Grand Total" column to divide the value in the "Total Cost" column by the grand total which will format the result as a percentage.

Bain Corporation makes and sells state-of-the-art electronics products. One of its segments produces The Math Machine, an inexpe

pochemuha

Solution and Explanation:

Part a:

Revenue 5000 multiply 6.6 33000

Unit Level Variable Cost:

Material Cost 5000 multiply 2.7 -13500

Labor Cost 5000 multiply 1.2 -6000

Manufacturing Cost 5000 multiply 1.2 -6000

Shipping and Handling 5000 multiply 0.3 -1500

Sales Commission 0

Contribution Margin 6000

Should be accepted as it will increase profitability by $6000

Part b1&b2: Cost to Make Cost to Buy

Material Cost 40000*2.7 108000

Labor Cost 40000*1.2 48000

Manufacturing Cost 40000*1.2 48000

Prod Supervisor Salary 72000

Purchase Cost 40000*6.72 0 268800

Total Cost 276000 268800

Should purchase from outside as cost is lower than making it

Part b3:

Cost to Make Cost to Buy

Material Cost 60000 multiply 2.7 162000

Labor Cost 60000 multiply1.2 72000

Manufacturing Cost 60000*1.2 72000

Prod Supervisor Salary 72000 72000

Purchase Cost 60000*6.72 0 403200

Total Cost 378000 475200

Should make in house as cost is lower

Part c: It should not be eliminated.

Elimination will decrease profitability by $72000 which is being allocated company wide facility exp. Before Allocation, actual profit is (168000-24000-72000)=$72000

Loss is because of allocation of facility expenese, which will be allocated on other segment.
