Imagine that a small manufacturing company decides to invest in a materials resources planning (MRP) system. This is a computeri

zed information system that improves efficiency by automating such work as planning needs for resources, ordering materials, and scheduling work on the shop floor. The company hopes that with the new MRP system, it can grow by quickly and efficiently processing small orders for a variety of products. Which of the human resource functions are likely to be affected by this change? How can human resource management help the organization carry out this change successfully?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following,

The human resource functions that are likely to be affected by this change are Resource Management, Personal Data Management, Training, and Performance Management.

Human Resource Management helps the organization carry out this change successfully, explaining how these modifications can benefit the employees and the entire organization. HR has to use the proper means of internal communication to explain in advance the kinds of oof changes that are coming. This will prevent fear and anxiety, and eliminate rumors about the situation of the employees in the organization.

HR has to be careful in confirming that nobody is going to be fired by the arrival of new technologies. Then, HR has to explain in detail the many benefits in planning, scheduling, organizing, inventory, and many other benefits for each department. If employees do not feel threatened by this new technology they would welcome changes that allow them to do their work more productively.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Risk on the critical path should be given higher priority than activities that are not part of the critical path, or that have a positive slack.

This is because incurring in a riks that is on the critical path can seriously alter the schedule of a project, to the point that the project could be delayed or put off.

Jorge Rodrigues annual salary is:

S=\$48,000

We know that 1 year consists of 12 months, so the gross wage per month can be obtained by dividing the annual salary by 12:

\frac{S}{m}=\frac{48,000}{12}=\$4,000

1 year also contains 52 weeks, so the gross wage per week is obtained by dividing the annual salary by 52:

\frac{S}{w}=\frac{48,000}{52}=\$923

Finally, 1 year contains 26 bi-week periods, so the gross wage per bi-week period is:

\frac{S}{b}=\frac{48,000}{26}=\$1846

4)

In this part, we know that Lexi's salary per month is:

s=\$1600

We know that 1 year consists of 12 months: therefore, the annual salary contains 12 monthly salary, so we can write

S=ns

where

n = 12 is the number of months

S is the annual salary

Substituting s, we find:

S=(12)(1600)=\$19,200

5)

Here the Monthly salary of Ryo is

s=\$2200

So her annual salary is the monthly salary multiplied by 12:

S=ns=(12)(2200)=\$26,400

Then Ryo has been offered a raise of $250 per month, so her new salary per month will be

s'=2200+250=\$2450

Therefore, her new annual salary will be

S'=ns'=(12)(2450)=\$29,400

So, the amount that Ryo will earn more per year is:

\Delta S=S'-S=29,400-26400=\$3000

6)

Being paid salary means that we are paid with a fixed regular payment, usually paid every month.

Being paid by hourly rate instead means that we are paid a fixed amount for every hour of work: therefore, the total monthly salary will depend on the number of hours of work.

Therefore, the main advantages/disadvantages are the following:

- Advantage of being paid salary: the payment is fixed, therefore it is independent on the number of hours worked - so even if one month we work less hours, we still receive the same pay

- Disadvantages: the salary is fixed and cannot be increased by working more - in fact, in the hourly payment, by working more hours it is possible to earn more.

7)

In this problem, the amount of the check in the restaurant is

c=\$340

The customer decides to leave a 20% tip, which corresponds to \frac{20}{100} of the amount of check.

Therefore, we can write the amount of the tip left as

t=\frac{20}{100}c

Simplifying, we get

t=\frac{1}{5}c

And by substituting c = 340, we find the tip left:

t=\frac{1}{5}(340)=\$68

8)

In this problem, Sandra is paid per day.

Her pay per day is

d=\$95

Which means that she is paid 95 dollars per day.

In this month, Sandra has worked for

n = 22 days

Therefore her total earning for this month will be

T=nd

and substituting n = 22 and d = 95, we find:

T=(22)(95)=\$2090

9)

First of all, we have to find the total number of pieces produced by summing the number of pieces produced each day.

For Zinke, the total number of pieces produced is:

n = 54 + 55 + 59 + 62+ 60 =  290

The price per piece produced is

p = $1.60

Therefore, the gross pay is equal to the number of pieces times the price per piece:

P=np=(290)(1.60)=\$464

Then we have to repeat the exercise for Bello. The total number of pieces produced is:

n = 24 + 28 + 30 + 31 + 27 = 140

The price per piece is

p = $2.80

So, the gross pay is:

P=np=(140)(2.80)=\$392

10)

Here the fare for the whole drive was

f = $19.30

However, Steve gave the driver a total of 20$. This means that the tip gave by Steve to the driver is

t=20\$ - 19.30\$ = 0.70\$

Here we are asked to determine if the tip is adequate, generous or not enough. In order to evaluate this, we have to calculate what is the tip in % with respect to the fare.

It is:

\frac{t}{f}\cdot 100 = \frac{0.70}{19.30}\cdot 100 =3.6\%

The tip is 3.6% of the fare: therefore, the tip is not enough (an adequate tip can be considered between 10 and 20 %).

. Suppose you own a bookstore. You believe that you can sell 40 copies per day of the latest John Grisham novel when the price i
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

PED = 0.67 inelastic demand

you should not lower the price of the book

Explanation:

the midpoint formula for calculating price elasticity of demand = {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} /  {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}

PED = {(50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2]} /  {(25 - 35) / [(25 + 35) / 2]} = [10 / (90 / 2)] /  [-10 / (60 / 2)] = (10 / 45) / (-10 / 30) = 0.222 / -0.333 = 0.67

the PED = 0.67 which means that the demand is inelastic

if you lower the price of the book, the increase in number of books sold will be proportionally lower than decrease in price, so you will lose money by doing that.

Let Selling Price = X

Total Revenue = Total cost

X*800 = 10,600+6.70*800

800x = 15960

Hence, selling Price(X) = 15960/800 = $ 19.95

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$830,000

Explanation:

Ultra Co.'s inventory for January:

Date               Number of units   Unit balance      Unit cost     Total cost   

January 1             20,000                20,000               $13         $260,000       

January 20          30,000                50,000               $15         $710,000          

January 23          40,000                90,000               $17        $1,390,000      

<u>January 31          (50,000)                                       ($16.60)    ($830,000) </u>

Ending inventory                             40,000                              $560,000

Using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, the COGS = (40,000 units x $17 per unit) + (10,000 units x $15 per unit) = $680,000 + $150,000 = $830,000
