Answer:

Crash the schedule.

Explanation:

Fast-track can complete the task earlier but takes more money. Assign more experienced people will cost the management more money. Cut scope reduces the project requirement and finishes the task earlier. Therefore, options A B and D can not be the answer.

Crash the schedule (option C) is the answer because it allocates enough resources to complete the task earlier without spending more money.

The free cash flow to the firm is reported as $275 million. The interest expense to the firm is $60 million. If the tax rate is
alex41 [277]

Answer:

269 million

Explanation:

The free cash flow to the firm is 275 million

The interest expense is $60 million

The tax rate is 35%

The net debt of the firm increases by $33 million

Therefore the free cash flow to the equity holders of the firm can be calculated as follows

= 275 million-60 million(1-35/100) + 33 million

= 275 million- 60( 1-0.35) + 33 million

= 275 million- 60(0.65) +33 million

= 275 million - 39 million + 33 million

= 236 million + 33 million

= 269 million

The demand function for a certain make of ink-jet cartridge is the following where p is the unit price in dollars and x is the q
Paul [167]

Answer:

The answer to the following question is: (-9.34)

Explanation:

Given that:

p = -0.07 x^2 - 0.7x  + 6

The price elasticity of demand = ( change in quality / change in price)

     =   (dp / dx)  (x/p)

     =   d / dx   (-0.07 x^2 - 0.7x  + 6)   x / p

     =   (-0.14x - 0.7)  x/ (-0.07 x^2 - 0.7x  + 6)

elasticity = (-0.14x^2 - 0.7x) / (-0.07 x^2 - 0.7x  + 6)

at x=5;

elasticity = (-0.14(5)^2 - 0.7(5)) / (-0.07 (5)^2 - 0.7(5)  + 6)

              = (-3.5 - 3.5) / (-1.75 - 3.5 + 6)

              =  -7/ 0.75 = -9.333

              = -9.34

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

On-the job training.

This is explained to be normal emphasized training that working staffs are seen to undergo; especially newly employed staffs, which is a direct training while doing the actual job they are been hired or paid for.

a_sh-v [17]
 I don't think there's anything more annoying than the ISP monopolies, specifically Comcast which has most of the US I believe. They never bother to upgrade their services only their prices and stupid cable bundle packages. I'm lucky enough to live in a large metropolitan area where a new fiber internet company just started up but before this last year there were only two ISP choices; Comcast or Century link. Suburban and rural areas typically only get one choice; expensive slow internet service from a local ISP monopoly.

Suppose that a delivery company currently uses one employee per vehicle to deliver packages. Each driver delivers 60 packages pe
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a. What is the MRP per driver per day?

  • the marginal revenue product per driver = 60 packages x $20 = $1,200 per day

b. Now suppose that a union forces the company to place a supervisor in each vehicle at a cost of $300 per supervisor per day. The presence of the supervisor causes the number of packages delivered per vehicle per day to rise to 60  packages per day What is the MRP per supervisor per day? By how much per vehicle per day do firm profits fall after supervisors are introduced?

  • if the drivers were already delivering 60 packages per day without the supervisor, then the addition of the supervisor doesn't change anything. So the MRP of the supervisor is $0. That means that the company's profits will decrease by $300 per day due to the supervisors.

c. How many packages per day would each vehicle have to deliver in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

  • $300 / 20 = 15 packages per day
  • in order to maintain the profit per vehicle, each team of delivery man + supervisor should be able to deliver 75 packages per day.

d. Suppose that the number of packages delivered per day cannot be increased but that the price per deliver might potentially be raised. What price would the firm have to charge for each delivery in order to maintain the firm's profit per  vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

  • $300 / 60 = $5
  • the price of each package delivered should increase by $5 to $25 per package.
