Answer:

18 minutes.

Explanation:

The standard deviation for the call time is 50 minutes while the average call duration is 25 minutes. The caller has to wait for sometime before the agent answers it because they have 4 agents who take up the calls from the clients. A call arrives every 20 minutes with a standard deviation of 20 minutes. In the given scenario the waiting time can be calculated using the formula below:

t = ( Ф * standard deviation + average call duration * standard deviation )

Solving the equation we get 18 minutes.

Answer:

1 and a half months worth of depreciation

Explanation:

The advantage of starting to depreciate an asset purchased on December is that next year you will be able to depreciate it for a full year under MACRS.  Generally, when you purchase an asset, you have to use the half year convention and your depreciation expense for the first year will be low compared to the second year. But if you start depreciating your asset in the current year, even if you purchased it on December and the depreciation expense is not that significant, the next year you will be able to depreciate it at the second year rate.
