Which industry is a good example of the involvement by business in washington lobbying as their number of lobbies has skyrockete

yulyashka [42]

The Healthcare industry is a great example of how the industry has become involved in Washington lobbying, as the number of their lobbies has increased recently.

According to the Public Disclosure Commission (PDC), lobbying is "attempting to influence the approval or rejection of any rule, standard, rate, or another legislative enactment by any state agency under the state Administrative Procedure Act, RCW.

In Washington, the sector that has spent the most on lobbying over the past 24 years is the pharmaceutical and health goods sector. Insurance, electric utilities, electronics manufacturers, and business groups are further businesses that spend a lot of money on lobbying.

The pharmaceutical and health goods business has outspent all others in lobbying spending $5.17 billion total.

Management of Mittel Rhein AG of Köln, Germany, would like to reduce the amount of time between when a customer places an order

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

1. Throughput Time = 9.2 days

2. Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = 29%

3. 71% throughput time was spent in non value added activities.

4. Delivery Cycle Time = 25.8 days

5. New MCE = 57%

Explanation:

Given

Inspection time 0.7 days

Wait time 16.6 days

Process time 2.7 days

Move time 1.3 days

Queue time 4.5 days

1. The throughput time is calculated by adding all time except the wait time.

I.e.

Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time

Throughput Time = 0.7 days + 2.7 days + 1.3 days + 4.5 days

Throughput Time = 9.2 days

2. Calculating the manufacturing cycle efficiency.

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency is calculated by dividing value added time by throughput time.

Where the value added time = the process time = 2.7 days

And throughput time = 9.2 days (calculated in (a) above)

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = 2.7 days ÷ 9.2 days

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = 0.2934782609

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = 29.34782609%

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency = 29%

3. Calculating the percentage of the throughput time was spent in non–value-added activities.

This is calculated by subtracting MCE calculated above from 100%

% throughput time = 100% - 29%

% throughput time = 71%

So, if 29% throughput time was spent in value added activities, 71% throughput time was spent in non value added activities.

4. Calculating the delivery cycle time.

This is calculated by adding the wait time to throughput time.

i.e.

Delivery Cycle Time = Wait Time + Throughput Time

Where Wait Time = 16.6 days and Throughput Time = 9.2 days

Delivery Cycle Time = 16.6 days + 9.2 days

Delivery Cycle Time = 25.8 days

5. Calculating new MCE.

Here, we'll used the same formula used in (2) above

i.e

Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency is calculated by dividing value added time by throughput time.

Where the value added time = the process time = 2.7 days

But throughput time will be calculated as

Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time (because of the elimination of all queue time)

Throughput Time = 0.7 days + 2.7 days + 1.3 days

Throughput Time = 4.7 days

So, New MCE = 2.7 days ÷ 4.7 days

New MCE = 0.5744680851

New MCE = 57.44680861%

New MCE = 57%

Calculate Social Security taxes, Medicare taxes, and FIT for Jordon Barrett. He earns a monthly salary of $11,300. He is single

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

1) social security taxes = (accumulated earnings - social security maximum) x 6.2% = ($139,370 - $128,070) x 6.2% = $700.60

2) medicare taxes = monthly earnings x 1.45% = $11,300 x 1.45% = $163.85

3) in order to calculate federal income taxes, I used the 2019 tables and allowance:

2019 allowance = $350 per person

monthly paycheck between $7,333 - $13,710

must withhold $1,198.46 plus 24% in excess of $7,333

federal income taxes under percentage method = $11,300 - $350 (1 monthly allowance 2019) = $10,950

$1,198.46 + [($10,950 - $7,333) x 24%] = $1,198.46 + $868.08 = $2,066.54

For 2020, there are no more personal allowances.
