Pat invested a total of $3,000. Part of the money was invested in a money market account that paid 10 percent simple annual inte

adell [148]

Answer:

$800 in account that pays 10% interest

$2,200 in account that pays 8% interest

Explanation:

Account A = Money market account that paid 10% simple annual interest

Account B = Money market account that paid 8% simple annual interest

W1 = Proportion of money invested in Account A

W2 = Proportion of money invested in Account B

W1 + W2 = 1

therefore, W1 = 1 - W2

Principle amount = $3,000

3000 x W1 = Amount of money invested in Account A

3000 x W2 = Amount of money invested in Account B

Total interest earned = $256

R1 = 10% simple interest on Account A

R2 = 8% simple interest on Account B)

Total Interest = (Principle x W1 x R1) + (Principle x W2 x R2)

256 = (3000 x W1 x 10%) + (3000 x W2 x 8%)

256 = 300 W1 + 240 W2

256 = 300 W1 + 240 ( 1 - W1)

256 = 300 W1 + 240 - 240 W1

16 = 60 W1

W1 = 16 / 60

W2 = 1 - W1 = 1 - (16/60) = 11/15

Amount of money invested in Account A = 3000 x W1 = 3000 x (16/60) = $800

Amount of money invested in Account B = 3000 x W2 = 3000 x (11/15) =$2,200

As part of a major plant renovation project, the industrial engineering department has been asked to balance a revised assembly

ioda

Answer:

A)Minimum = 0.2 minutes

Maximum = 4.6 minutes

Cycle time = = 2 minutes per unit

B) Number of Stations = 3

D) the percentage of idle time for the assignment in decimal = 0.43

Explanation:

A) Operating output = 240 units per 8hours.

Converting to per hour, we get; 240/8 = 30 units per hour.

Minimum cycle time = longest task time

Maximum cycle time = sum of task times

Minimum = 0.2 minutes

Maximum = 0.2 + 0.4 + 0.2 + 0.4 + 1.2 + 1.2 + 1.0 = 4.6 minutes

Now, operational time(OT) is 8 hours a day. Converting that to minutes, we have =60x8 = 480 minutes

Cycle time(CT) = OT (per day) /desired output

Therefore, calculated cycle time = 480/240

= 2 minutes per unit

B) Number of stations = Maximum time / CT

= 4.6/2 = 2.3 which is approximately 3 stations

C) The task diagram is drawn in image 1 attached. Therefore, we can assign tasks based in the greatest number of following tasks as follows;

Task Number of following tasks

a 4

b 3

c 2

d 2

e 1

f 1

g 0

D) for the idle time from the assigned tasks in "c" above, from the "image 2" attached; the percentage of the idle time will be=

Total remaining time of tasks without remaining feasibility tasks/ {(number of these tasks) x(CT)}

Which gives percentage of idle time = (0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 1.0)/{(4)x(2)}

= 3.4/8 = 42.5%

Since we are to convert to decimal,

= 0.425 approximately 0.43
