Answer:
66.7%
Explanation:
Given that,
Design capacity = 6 furnaces per day
Effective capacity = 5 furnaces per day
Efficiency ratio if it repairs an average of 4 furnaces per day:

= 0.667 × 100
= 66.7%
Therefore, the efficiency ratio is 66.7 percent.

Explanation:
Calculation to determine What is necessary to hedge the position
Using this formula
N=Vu-Vd/U-D
U = stock price in case of an up move = $36
D = stock price in case of an down move = $26
VU = put option value if stock goes up = $0
VU = put option value if stock goes down = $32 - $26 = $6
 Using this formula
N=

Now let calculate What is necessary to hedge the position
Value =74 x + 6
Hence,
90x=74x + 6, 
x=6/(90-74)
x=6/16
x=.375

Age Discriminationi in Employment Act
The age discrimination in Employment Act in the US was established as a labour law in 1967 and it was established to ensure that anyone who is at least 40 years of age does not suffer from employment discrimination. 
The fact that Sharon is a forty-five year-old employee means she is qualified to file a suit against her employers under the Act. However, as previously stated before it can be established whether she deserves a higher pay or more dependable than her replacement or was discriminated against because of age, Sharon will need to establish the fact that she's qualified for the position taken away from her. 
If she cannot prove that proposition or it ends up being refutted by the organisation, then the Age Discrimination in Employment Act cannot be invoked.
