Muir Manufacturing produces two popular grades of commercial carpeting among its many other products. In the coming production p

eriod, Muir needs to decide how many rolls of each grade should be produced in order to maximize profit. Each roll of Grade X carpet uses 50 units of synthetic fiber requires 25 hours of production time, and needs 20 units of foam backing. Each roll of Grade Y carpet uses 40 units of synthetic fiber requires 28 hours of production time, and needs 15 units of foam backing. The profit per roll of Grade X carpet is $200 and the profit per roll of Grade Y carpet is $160. In the coming production period, Muir has 3000 units of synthetic fiber available for use. Workers have been scheduled to provide at least 1800 hours of production time (overtime is a possibility). The company has 1500 units of foam backing available for use.

Answer:

With 16 Grade X and 54 Grade Y the company maximize their profit at 11,840 dollars

Explanation:

We set up the scenario in Excel and use SOLVER tool:

X = 50 synthetic + 25 labor + 20 foam

Y = 40 synthetic + 28 labor + 15 foam

Profit:

X = 200

Y = 160

Constraing:

synthetics <= 3,000

foam <= 1,500

Grade X and Grade Y are integer.

goal: maximize profit

16 of Grade X

and 54 of grade Y

16 x 50 = 800

16 x 30  = 540

54 x 40  = 2,160

54 x 15  =    810

Profit:

16 x 200 + 54 x 160 = 11840

Maru [420]

Explanation:

Inflation: Inflation can be defined as rise in general price level of the goods and services in a country.

It can also be defined as reduction in value of money.

In this case Inflation in US( 2.5%) is higher than inflation in Japan (2%). So Japanese Yen is reducing less in value from US Dollar. So, now Dollar can buy less Yen than it could buy previously.

A stock has had the following year-end prices and dividends: Year Price Dividend 1 $ 43.37 - 2 48.35 $ .60 3 57.27 .63 4 45.35 .
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

geometric mean return = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = 1.21%

Explanation:

Year            Price            Dividend              Yearly return

1                  $43.37                 -                            0

2                 $48.35            $0.60                      1.24%

3                 $57.27            $0.63                       1.1%

4                 $45.35            $0.80                       1.76%

5                 $52.27            $0.85                       1.63%

6                  $61.35            $0.93                       1.52%

geometric mean return = [(1 + 0) x (1 + 0.0124) x (1 + 0.011) x (1 + 0.0176) x (1 + 0.0163) x (1 + 0.0152)]¹/⁶ - 1 = 1.012 - 1 = 0.012 = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = (0% + 1.24% + 1.1% + 1.76% + 1.63% + 1.52%) / 6 = 7.25% / 6 = 1.21%

Which of the following statements is true of sampling error? Group of answer choices It occurs when a sample somehow does not re
ludmilkaskok [199]

Sampling error occurs when a sample somehow does not represent the target population.

Answer:

Statement  (A) is true

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sample means a small group selected from a large group.The large group from which a sample is selected is called the population.Basically a sample is selected to draw conclusions regarding population because it is not possible to study the entire sample.But if sample sample does not represent the target population then our conclusions will not be accurate.This will give rise to sampling errors.

If occurs when sample is biased.So we need to be very careful while selecting a sample.It must represent the entire population not just a part of population.

Sampling error can be reduced by increasing the size of population,dividing population in groups,select appropriate population.

Sampling error occur when population is not correct as per our requirement,or when sample is selected randomly.It may also occur when sample selected does not respond ,at that time it becomes difficult to draw conclusions regarding population.

n200080 [17]

Available Options are:

Fax machines

Printers

Smartphones

Video or audio conferencing machines

Answer:

All of the above except Printers

Explanation:

The reason is that printers are very important part of administration work so its more likely that we already have one. However it is possible that we don't have any fax machine, smartphones and video or audio conferencing machines as these are rarely used by the administration. So Printers will not be bought oor rented.
