Answer:

You can use your computer safely by just toggling the voltage switch on the power supply form 110 volts to 230 volts.

Explanation:

This is a similar issue to what happens with the metric system, the imperial system is used in the US as a cultural thing but it's rarely used anywhere else. The US uses 100 volts because Thomas Edison thought it would be better, while basically everyone else in the world disagrees.

Since most computers are built in China or some other Asian country, they either have an automatic voltage selector or they have a manual switch. In case the power supply uses a manual switch, all you have to do is toggle it to 230 volts.

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

3.33%; 9%

Explanation:

Given that,

Expected dividend next year = $1.50

Trading at = $45

Expected growth rate per year = 9 percent

Dividend yield = (Expected dividend next year ÷ Trading amount) × 100

                        = ($1.50 ÷ $45) × 100

                        = 0.0333 × 100

                        = 3.33%

The capital gain of JUJU is same as the expected growth rate i.e 9 percent.

A manager reorders lubricant when the amount on hand reaches 422 pounds. Average daily usage is 45 pounds, which is normally dis
Snezhnost [94]

Answer: The risk of stock out = 2.94%

Explanation:

Reorder point is calculated as: Lead time*demand per unit time=45*9=405

While the amount on-hand reaches 422 pounds, the manager was reordering lubricant.

During the lead time, Standard Deviation of Demand =Daily S.D*(Lead time)^0.5=3*(9^0.5)=9

Risk of Stock Out=(422-405)/9 S.D=1.89 S.D

From Normal distribution curve 1.89 S.D=0.0294=2.94%

Therefore, the risk of stock out=2.94%

docker41 [41]

Answer:

a. 0.7273 or 72.73%

b. 0.8875 or 88.75%

Explanation:

a. Utilization rate is the ratio of the amount of installed capacity planned to be used relative to the total installed capacity. This can be stated as follows:

Utilization rate = ICP ÷ TC ......................................... (1)

ICP = Amount of installed capacity planned to be used

TC = Total installed capacity

From the question, ICP = 1,600 while TC = 2,200. Substituting this into equation (1), we have:

Utilization rate = 1,600 ÷ 2,200 = 0.7273 or 72.73%  

Therefore, utilization rate is 0.7273 or 72.73%.

b. Efficiency rate is the ratio of the actual installed capacity used relative to the amount of installed capacity planned to be used. This can be stated as follows:

Efficiency rate = AIC ÷ ICP ......................................... (1)

AIC = Actual installed capacity used

ICP = Amount of installed capacity planned to be used

From the question, ICP = 1,420 while TC = 1,600. Substituting this into equation (1), we have:

Efficiency rate = 1,420 ÷ 1,600 = 0.8875 or 88.75%

Therefore, efficiency rate is 0.8875 or 88.75% .
