Answer:

Major activities of the Planning Section include: D) Preparing and documenting Incident Action Plans.

Explanation:

The Planning section is responsible for various activities carried out in Incident Command System or ICS. ICS is used to respond to emergencies in the United States. The activities that befall under this section are mostly related to plannings.

These activities are: collecting and evaluating information, preparing and maintaining documents of incidents, etc. Preparing and maintaining the incident documents is an essential task and requires accuracy in representing the facts and figures. Hence, we can say that D is the only activity in the planning section of the ICS.

Artemon [7]

Answer:

A. The required order cost per lot is $0.388

B. The required order cost per lot is $0.9216

Explanation:

A. According to the given data Given area of shelf space = 5 Ft * 4 Ft = 20 Sq. Ft

Let us covert it to Sq. inch

1 Ft = 12 Inches

Therefore , Area of shelf space = 20 *12 * 12 = 2,880 Sq. in

1 can of water takes 20 Sq inch of shelf space

Therefore no. of cans that the shelf space can hold = 2880 / 20 = 144 Cans

Now SH wants to store exact amount of shelf space without needing to store cans somewhere elseand hence this 144 cans becomes EOQ (Economic order Qty.)

Now we know EOQ = √(2KD) / h ----Eq. 1

EOQ = 144

K = Fixed ordering cost = ?

D = Annual demand = 8000

h = Holding cost = ?

C = Cost per can = $ 3

i = 10 % (Carrying cost as percentage of Unit cost)

h = i * C

h = 10 % * $ 3

h = $ 0.3

Substituting above in Eq. 1 and solve for K

EOQ = √ (2KD) / h

144 = √(2 * K * 8000) / 0.3

Squaring both sides we get

20,736 = (16,000 * K ) / 0.3

20,736 * 0.3 = 16,000 * K

K = 6220.8 /16000

K = $ 0.388 = Ordering cost per order

The required order cost per lot is $0.388

B. Here EOQ remains same = 144 But other parameters change

K = Fixed ordering cost = ?

D = Annual demand = 27,000

h = Holding cost = ?

C = Cost per can = $ 12

i = 20 % (Carrying cost as percentage of Unit cost)

h = i * C

h = 20 % * $ 12

h = $ 2.4

Substituting above in Eq. 1 and solve for K

EOQ =√(2KD) / h

144 = √(2 * K * 27,000) / 2.4

Squaring both sides we get

20,736 = ( 54,000 * K ) / 2.4

20,736 * 2.4 = 54,000 * K

K = 49,766.4 /54,000

K = $ 0.9216 = Ordering cost per order

The required order cost per lot is $0.9216

Athlete Kalen wishes to retire at age forty-five and receive annual birthday payments of $40,000 beginning on his forty-fifth bi

wolverine [178]

Answer:

1,040,000

Explanation:

We can calculate the money will Kalen need to have accumulated at age forty-five by dividing the annual birthday payments by the effective interest.

DATA

Annual birthday payments = A = $40,000

Effective interest = i = 4%

Calculation

Value at age 45 = A / i + Co

Value at age 45 = (40000 / .04) + 40000

Value at age 45 = 1,040,000

Kalen will need to have accumulated money of 1,040,000 at age forty-five, just prior to his first $40,000 birthday payment.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

a. Total overhead = $294,720 + $24 × machine hours

b. Total overhead = $137,040 + $0.05 × Kilowatt-hours

c. The kilowatt-hours was the best predictor for July

Explanation:

High low method is used to separate the variable cost and fixed costs elements in a Semi-Variable Cost item.

machine-hours as cost driver.

First find the 2 points : the High and the Low

High Point : March

Machine-hours = 4,680

Total Overhead = $ 407,040

Low Point : June

Machine-hours = 3,720

Total Overhead = $ 384,000

Next find the Difference in the overhead cost and the cost driver of the 2 points

Overheads = $23,040

Machine-hours = 960

Find the Variable cost element

Variable cost = difference in overhead / difference in cost driver

= $23,040 / 960

= $24

Find the Fixed Cost Element.

Fixed Cost = Total Overhead - Variable Overhead

selecting the high point, this will be :

= $ 407,040 - (4,680 × $24)

= $294,720

Determine the Cost function

Total overhead = $294,720 + $24 × machine hours

machine-hours as cost driver.

First find the 2 points : the High and the Low

High Point : March

Kilowatt-hours = 5,400,000

Total Overhead = $ 407,040

Low Point : June

Kilowatt-hours = 4,944,000

Total Overhead = $ 384,000

Next find the Difference in the overhead cost and the cost driver of the 2 points

Overheads = $23,040

Kilowatt-hours = 456,000

Find the Variable cost element

Variable cost = difference in overhead / difference in cost driver

= $23,040 / 456,000

= $0.05

Find the Fixed Cost Element.

Fixed Cost = Total Overhead - Variable Overhead

selecting the high point, this will be :

= $ 407,040 - (5,400,000 × $0.05)

= $137,040

Determine the Cost function

Total overhead = $137,040 + $0.05 × Kilowatt-hours

Apply the machine hours for july

Total overhead = $294,720 + $24 × machine hours

= $294,720 + $24 × 4,000

= $390,720

Apply kilowatt-hours for july

Total overhead = $137,040 + $0.05 × Kilowatt-hours

= $137,040 + $0.05 × 4,550,000

= $364,540

Conclusion :

The kilowatt-hours was the best predictor for July

Answer:

Members of teams with high cohesiveness feel higher loyalty to the team and have better job satisfaction.
Teams with high cohesiveness are generally more productive due to the energizing effect of regular interaction among team members.

Explanation:

Remember, cohesiveness looks at the degree to which team members stick together in times of difficulties.

Also cohesive teams are good communicators; they would involve in regular interactions among team members, an attitude which when applied to an organisation setting would increase the team's productivity.
