C&A sells 600 bottles of a dietary supplement per week at $100 per bottle. The supplement is ordered from a supplier who charges C&A $30 per order and $50 per bottle. C&A’s annual holding cost percentage is 40%. Assume C&A operates 50 weeks in a year. What is C&A’s total ordering and holding cost per year if C&A orders 500 bottles at a time?

following are two weekly forecasts made by two different methods for the number of gallons of gasoline, in thousands, demanded at a local gasoline station. Also shown are actual demand levels in thousands of gallons:
Forecasts
week Method 1 Method 2 Actual Demand
1 0.90 0.80 0.70
2 1.05 1.20 1.00
3 0.95 0.90 1.00
4 1.20 1.11 1.00
The MAD method 1 = ??? thousand gallons... 2. The absolute deviatin based on the forecast developed using Method 1 adds to ??? thousand gallons. Mean squared error (MSE) is the average of (actual-Forecast). from the information given in method 1 , the value of n=4. the value E(autal-forecast) will be??? thousand gallons.

This activity is important because organizational structures differ across companies and industries. Structure affects employees’ day-to-day activities and can be the source of gains or losses in job performance, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. Managers should be aware that structure should match the organization’s strategy and business environment.
The goal of this activity is to demonstrate your knowledge by matching statements with the type of organizational structure.
Read each fact and match it with the correct type of organizational structure.
Matrix structure, Functional structure, or Multi-functional structure

A vessel contains a gaseous mixture of composition by volume 80% H2, and 20% CO. It is desired that the mixture should be made in the proportion 50% H2 and 50% CO by removing some of the mixture and adding some CO. Calculate, per kilomole of mixture, the mass of mixture to be removed and the mass of CO to be added. The pressure and temperature in the vessel remain constant during the process. Take the molar mass of H2 and CO as 2 kg/kmol and 28 kg/kmol, respectively. Hint: Since pressure, temperature, and volume did not change, the amount of substance (number of kilomoles) must remain the same throughout.

North Dakota Electric Company estimates its demand trend line (in millions of kilowatt hours) to be: D = 77.0 + 0.45Q,
where Q refers to the sequential quarter number and Q=1 for winter of Year 1. In addition, the multiplicative seasonal factors are as follows:
Quarter | Factor (Index) |
---|---|
Winter | 0.72 |
Spring | 1.25 |
Summer | 1.45 |
Fall | 0.58 |
In year 26 (quarters 101-104), the energy use for each of the quarters beginning with winter is (round your response to one decimal place):
Quarter | Energy Use |
---|---|
Winter | |
Spring | |
Summer | |
