Which of the following statements about a company's strategy is true? A company's strategy is mostly hidden to outside view and

is deliberately kept under wraps by top-level managers (so as to catch rival companies by surprise when the strategy is launched). A company's strategy is typically planned well in advance and usually deviates little from the planned set of actions and business approaches because of the risks of making on-the-spot changes. A company's strategy generally changes very little over time unless a newly appointed CEO decides to take the company in a new direction with a new strategy. A company's strategy is typically a blend of proactive and reactive strategy elements.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

(a) Average number of unit in line  = 0.256

(b) Average number of unit in operation= 3.209

(c) Average number of unit being service in operation = 0.535

Explanation:

Given Data:

Number of machine N = 4

Number of attendant (S) = 1

Service time (T)= 5 mins

Time required by the machine before servicing = 30 mins

Calculating the service factor (X) using the formula;

X = T/(T+U)

    = 5/(5+30)

    = 5/35

     = 0.1429

(a) Calculating the average number of unit in line (L) using the formula;

L = N* (1-F)

where, N = Number of unit

F = efficiency factor

L = average number of unit in line

Using the finite queuing table at X = 0.1429 and S = 1,

Efficiency factor = 0.936

Substituting, we have;

L = 4*(1-0.936)

   = 4* 0.064

   = 0.256

(c) Calculating the average number of unit being service in operation (H) using the formula;

H = N*F*X

   = 4 *0.936*0.1429

   = 0.535

(b) Calculating the average number of unit in operation using the formula;

Average number of unit in operation= Number of unit-down unit

But down unit = L+H

The formula becomes;

Average number of unit in operation= Number of unit-(L+H)

                                                             = 4 - (0.256+0.535)

                                                             = 4-0.791

                                                             = 3.209

Joyce Murphy runs a courier service in downtown Seattle. She charges clients $0.50 per mile driven. Joyce has determined that if
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

1.

Given that

Charges per mile = $0.50

Variable Cost per mile driven = $0.20

Fixed Cost = $215

So,  

Contribution Margin per mile = Charges per mile - Variable Cost per mile driven

$0.50 - $0.20

= $0.30

Break-even units (in miles) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin per mile

= $215 ÷ $0.30

= 717 miles

2.

Revenue for 4,200 miles is

= $0.50 × 4,200

= $2,100

And,

Variable Cost = $0.20 × 4,200

= $840

Now

Contribution Margin = Revenue - Variable Cost

= $2,100 - $840

= $1,260

And,

Fixed Cost = $215

So,

Net Income = Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

= $2,100 - $840 - $215

= $1,045

So,  

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin ÷ Net Income

= $1,260 ÷ $1,045

= 1.2057

3.

Degree of Operating Leverage = % Change in Net Income ÷ % Change in Sales

1.2057 = % Change in Net Income ÷ -25%

1.2057 = % Change in Net Income ÷ -0.25

% Change in Net Income = -0.301425

= -30.1425%

xenn [34]

Answer: $ 30,290,000

Explanation:

For this question, the transportation table has been addressed below.

“X” indicates that there will be no possible production in the specific cell.

(i) The total cost of optimum production plan = (50,000 x 50) + (50,000 x 78) + (50,000 x 50) + (50,000 x 75) + (20,000 x 91) + (40,000 x 88) + (50,000 x 50) + (50,000 x 75) + (40,000 x 85) + (50,000 x 50) + (2,000 x 75)

= $ 30,290,000.

Therefore, the cost of the plan will be $30,290,000.
