Answer:

Total slack

Explanation:

Total slack is defines as the time that tasks are delayed which will eventually affect the finishing date of a project.

Total slack can be either positive or negative. Positive slack is when delay in tasks do not affect project finish date, and negative slack are delays that affect project finish date.

Total slack is calculated as difference between smaller value of late finish and early finish.

Tom shares 4 days of his slack with the contractor.

So he has 10- 4 = 6 days slack

The total slack is 6 + 4= 10 days

In this scenario the difference between late start and early start is 9 - 5= 4 days

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Cost of equity = 11.20%, Value of Equity = $39.25

Explanation:

a. Cost of equity = Rf + B(Rm-Rf)

Cost of equity = 4% + 1.2(6%)

Cost of equity = 4% + 7.20%

Cost of equity = 11.20%

b. P/E ratio = 20

Market Price / EPS = 20

Market Price = EPS * 20

-->P1 = $2.17 * 20 = $43.40

DPS1= $0.24

Value of Equity = P1/Cost of Equity + DPS1/Cost of equity

Value of Equity = $43.40/1.1120 + $0.24/1.1120

Value of Equity = $39.03 + $0.22

Value of Equity = $39.25

For product W, a firm has an annual holding cost percentage of 20%, an ordering cost of $110 per order, and annual demand of 15,
Rudiy27

Answer:

812.40 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual holding cost percentage = 20%

Ordering cost = $110 per order

Annual demand = 15,000 units

Units Ordered - Price Per Unit

1-250 - $30.00

251-500 - $28.00

501-750 - $26.00

751 and up - $25.00

Optimal order quantity:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times Annual\ demand\times Cost\ per\ order}{Holding\ cost} }

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 15,000\times 110}{25\times0.2} }

= \sqrt{\frac{3,300,000}{5} }

= 812.40

Therefore, the optimal order quantity is 812.40 units.
