Answer:

Hi you haven't provided the options to the question so I will just give the answer in my own words and you can check with the options.

Answer is ASSIGNABLE VARIATION.

Explanation:

Variation is a lack of consistency. It can introduce waste and errors into a process, for example, a manufacturing process.

There are two sources of variation which are:

1. Natural variations: are random variations that are expected and are a part of almost every production process which results from a number of chance causes.

2. Assignable variations: are trend factors that can be traced to a specific reason, such as machine tear, fatigued workers or untrained workers, flawed principles, equipment that is not properly adjusted or calibrated, or raw material problems.

According to the question, a machine was not properly set-up/calibrated which caused a wide variation of quality of the products it produced. Since the cause (improper setup/calibration) can be traced to a specific reason, therefore, the type of variation is an example of ASSIGNABLE VARIATIONS.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

39 years

Explanation:

Under the rule of 70, the economy doubles its real GDP per capita income

In this the computation is done by dividing the 70 by the annual growth rate

So, the formula is shown below:

Time period = Rule of 70 ÷ growth rate

where,

Growth rate is 1.8%

So, the time period at which the GDP doubles is

= 70 ÷ 1.8

= 39 years

By dividing the rule of 70 by the growth rate we can find the number of years at which the GDP doubles

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

both

  • United Continental with a capital expenditure of 60.68%
  • Southwest Airlines with a capital expenditure of 51.38%

Explanation:

Since United Continental's purchases of Boeing planes represent over 60% of their capital expenditures, this means that Boeing had to be the primary plane supplier. Even if the company purchased planes form other manufacturer, their purchases would not even be 40% of the company's purchases.

The same applies to Southwest Airlines, even though the purchases from Boeing are a little lower, they are still over 51%. This means the company could not have spent more money on purchasing planes from another company. The maximum purchase from another airplane manufacturer would have been less than 49% at most.

Besides the previous analysis, you must also consider that the company spends money on things besides airplanes, e.g. new training facilities, equipment, computer software, other vehicles, etc.

Lowe's is the second-largest home improvement retailer in the world, with 2,002 stores. During its fiscal year ended in February
34kurt

The financial statement effects template records Lowe's purchases for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2019 as follows:

Transaction        Assets                       =   Liabilities   +   Equity

Purchases          $0       +   $49,569    =   $49,569     +    $0

                          Inventory                         Accounts Payable

The accounts equally affected by the purchases on account are the Inventory and the Accounts Payable.

Data Analysis:

Merchandise Inventory $49,569 Accounts Payable $49,569

Thus, with the purchases of merchandise during the fiscal year at a cost of $49,569, the Assets (inventory) and Liabilities (accounts payable) are increased by the same amount.
