Answer:

360

Explanation:

Kanban is a method that is used to mange workflow in order to assist in visualizing the work and maximize the efficiency of a workers as well as making the workers agile.

The formula for calculating the number of Kanban is given as follows:

Number of Kanban = (Dd × LT × (1 + SS)) ÷ QC   .................. (1)

DD = Daily required production level = 250

LT = Lead Time (in minutes) = 30

SS = Safety Stock  = 20% = 0.2

QC = Number of squidgets in a container = 25

Substituting the values above into equation (1), we have:

Number of Kanban = (250 × 30 × (1 + 0.2)) ÷ 25

                                = (250 × 30 × 1.2) ÷ 25

                                = 9,000 ÷ 25

                                =  360  

Therefore, the number of kanbans to be circulated between Sandy's process and the previous operations is 360.

The owner of an interior lot has received notice that the city intends to place a sidewalk across his property. The lot measures
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

<em>The amount that he will be charged in a special assessment tax to cover his cost of the sidewalk Is $2000  </em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

We are told that the property is an interior lot, so we'll only consider one of the width of his plot, since the sidewalk can only pass through the front or the back of his property.

The property measures 100' x 500' , that is 100 ft width by 500 ft length

The cost of the sidewalk is $40 per linear ft

The city will pick up 50% of the cost.

For a width of the lot, the cost per linear length will be

100 x $40 = $4000

The city covers 50% of this cost, leaving 50% of the cost to the homeowner.

The homeowner's cost will be 50% of $4000

= 0.5 x $4000 =<em> $2000  </em>

<em>The amount that he will be charged in a special assessment tax to cover his cost of the sidewalk Is $2000  </em>

An aircraft company has an order to refurbish the interiors of 18 jet aircraft. The work has a learning curve percentage of 80.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

a. 125.43 hours

b. 767.92 hours

c. 2,129.04 hours

Explanation:

Using the mathematical approach, we have :

y = ax ^b

Where ,

y is the average time to manufacture x units

a is the time its takes to manufacture first plane

b is the log of 80% divided by log 2

Then,

Average time for 5 planes = 300 (5)^-0.322

                                            = 178.67 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 178.67 hours × 5

                                      = 893.35

Average time for 4 planes = 300 (4)^-0.322

                                            = 191.98 hours

Total time for 5 planes = 191.98 hours × 4

                                      = 767.92 hours

The fifth plane would take =  893.35 - 767.92

                                            =  125.43 hours

Average time for the 18 planes = 300(18)^-0.322

                                                    = 118,28 hours

Total time for 18 planes = 118,28 hours × 18

                                       = 2,129.04 hours

Suppose the supply curve for wool mittens is represented​ as: Q​ = 50​ + 1/2X​ - 5Y​ - 24Z. Which one of the following statement
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

C) The variable Y could be the price of the wool used to make mittens.

D) The variable X could be consumers income.

Explanation:

quantity supplied = 50 + 1/2X - 5Y  -24Z

In this equation if X increases, then the quantity supplied increases. Therefore X can either be the product's price or consumer income.

In this equation if Y or Z increase, then the quantity supplied decreases. Therefore Y or Z are production costs, either labor or materials.

Respass Corporation has provided the following data concerning an investment project that it is considering: Initial investment
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$458.12

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-160,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 3 = $54,000

cash flow in year 4 = $54,000 + $11,000 = $65,000

I = 15

NPV = $458.12

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute
