Answer:

Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish relationships

Explanation:

Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish relationships. This overlaping does not account for unexpected events and might not account possible relations between the legs or stages of a project

Answer:

A) Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish, start-to-start, or start-to-finish relationships.

Explanation:

If the project manager uses finish to finish relationships, a successor activity cannot finish until the predecessor activity has not finished.  

If the project manager uses start to start relationships, a successor activity cannot start until the predecessor activity has not started.  

If the project manager uses start to finish relationships, a successor activity cannot finish until the predecessor activity has not started.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Activity Rates

Consultation  $150

Drawings        $58

Modeling         $0.7

supervision       $190

Billings              $1037.5

Collections       $1642.5

Total overhead allocated: $ 126,826

Explanation:

First, we divide the cost of each activity over the base total to get the rate.

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}$Activity&Driver&cost&Total&Rate\\$Consultation&$contact hours&315000&2100&150\\$Drawings&$desing hours&104400&1800&58\\$Modeling&$square feet&32200&46000&0.7\\$supervision&$days&228000&1200&190\\$Billings&$jobs&8300&8&1037.5\\$Collections&$jobs&13140&8&1642.5\\\end{array}\right]

Now we apply this rate against the job activity measurement:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}$Activity&Job&$Rate&$Allocated\\$Consultation&410&150&61500\\$Drawings&352&58&20416&\\$Modeling&7400&0.7&5180&\\$supervision&195&190&37050&\\$Billings&1&1037.5&1037.5&\\$Collections&1&1642.5&1642.5&\\$Total&&&126826&\\\end{array}\right]

otez555 [7]

Answer:

$22.2222, $9.5238, respectively

Explanation:

The market-to-book ratio is given by a share's market value divided by its book value, if shares are selling for $100 on the market, the book value is:

B = \frac{\$100}{4.5}=\$22.2222

The price to earnings ratio (PE ratio) is determined as a share's price divided by the earnings per share. Earnings per share are:

E=\frac{\$100}{10.5}\\E=\$9.5238

The book value per share and earnings per share are $22.2222, $9.5238, respectively

A bloomberg businessweek north american subscriber study collected data from a sample of 2861 subscribers. fifty-nine percent of
ollegr [7]

a. The population of this study consists of all subscribers to Bloomberg Newsweek in North America.

b. Quantitative variables are those that can be measured numerically. Annual income is a quantitative variable since it can be expressed in numbers.  

c. Categorical variables are those that can’t be quantified. They can only take on a fixed number of values. In this case, the question ‘do you own an American express credit card’ can take on only two values – Yes or No. So, the ownership of an American Express credit card is a categorical variable.

d. The data above gives two different values that describe the same population at the same time, it involves cross-sectional data.

Time-series data refers to data that is collected at equally spaced time intervals. For e.g. production of wheat in each year for the last 10 years, the amount of rainfall received over each of the last five years etc.

Cross-sectional data refers to data from many (similar)individual groups at one given point in time. For e.g. Prices of different varieties of corn on a particular day.

e. On the basis of the survey, Bloomberg Newsweek might infer that at least some of its subscribers with an income of $75,000 or more have an American Express credit card.

For the coming year, Loudermilk Inc. anticipates fixed costs of $600,000, a unit variable cost of $75, and a unit selling price
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

a) 4.800 units: Operational loss area (L)

12,000: Break even point (BEP)

$1,500,000: BEP

20,000 units: Operational profit area (P). Also, the maximum amount of units.

$2,500,000: Operational profit area (P). Also, the maximum amount of sales.

b) BEP: 12,000 units or $1,500,000 in sales.

Explanation:

The graph is divided in two sections:

1 - The operational loss area (L)

2 - The operational profit area (P)

The interface between both regions is the breakeven point.

a) 4.800 units: Operational loss area (L)

12,000: Break even point (BEP)

$1,500,000: BEP

20,000 units: Operational profit area (P). Also, the maximum amount of units.

$2,500,000: Operational profit area (P). Also, the maximum amount of sales.

b) The breakeven point is where sales equal total cost (or the level at which profits are zero). This breakeven point (BEP) is at 12,000 units:

BEP=\frac{FC}{price-VC} =\frac{600,000}{125-75}=\frac{600,000}{50}=12,000

This corresponds to $1,500,000 in sales.

S_{BEP}=125*12,000=1,500,000
