marin [14]

Answer:

The answer is D. $180,000

Explanation:

Investing activities is about spending on long term asset or long term investments.

Under investing activities in cash flow, what constitutes inflow is the sales of these long term assets like plant and machinery and what constitutes outflow is the purchase of these assets.

In this question, the inflow is the sale of equipment which us $270,000 and outflow is the purchase of equipment for $90,000.

So net cash flow from investing activities is:

$270,000 - $90,000

=$180,000

Repair calls are handled by one repairman at a photocopy shop. Repair time, including travel time, is exponentially distributed,
wolverine [178]

Answer:

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

the system utilization = 42

the amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is  = 4.64 hours

the probability of two or more customers in the system = 0.1764

Explanation:

Given that :

Repair time, including travel time =  mean of 1.6 hours per call.

Requests for copier repairs = mean rate of 2.1 per eight-hour day

i.e mean rate R = 2.1/day

Time = 8 hours

thus; mean rate μ = 8 hours/ 1.6 hours = 5

(a)

Let the average number of customers awaiting repairs be I_i :

I_i = \dfrac{R^2}{\mu (\mu-R)}

I_i = \dfrac{2.1^2}{5 (5-2.1)}

I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{5 (2.9)}

I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{14.5}

\mathbf{I_i = 0.30}

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

(b) Determine system utilization.

The system utilization is determined as follows:

\delta = \dfrac{R}{\mu}

\delta = \dfrac{2.1}{5}

{\delta = 0.42}

\mathbf{\delta = 42}

(c) The amount of time during an eight-hour day that the repairman is not out on a call is calculated as :

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - \delta

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - 0.42

Percentage of Idle time = 0.58

However during an 8 hour day; The amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 0.58 × 8 = 4.64 hours

(d)

the probability of two or more customers in the system by assuming Poisson Distribution is:

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - (P₀+ P₁)

where;

P₀ = 0.58

P₁ = 0.58  × 0.42 = 0.2436

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - ( 0.58 + 0.2436)

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.8236

P(N ≥ 2) = 0.1764

Thus; the probability of two or more customers in the system is 0.1764

butalik [34]

Explanation:

Given data:

Lana salary per hour = $18.15

total hour of work by her is 39 hr 41  minutes

we know from hundredth hour pay method

hundredth hr for 41 mints is = \frac{(41}{60}) \times  100 = 68.33

so we have  39 hrs 41 minutes that can be written as = 39.6833

So, salary for 39.6833 is = $18.15 \times 39.6833 = $720.25
