Variable and Fixed Costs, Cost Formula, High-Low Method

Li Ming Yuan and Tiffany Shaden are the department heads for the accounting department and human resources department, respectively, at a large textile firm in the southern United States. They have just returned from an executive meeting at which the necessity of cutting costs and gaining efficiency has been stressed. After talking with Tiffany and some of her staff members, as well as his own staff members, Li Ming discovered that there were a number of costs associated with the claims processing activity. These costs included the salaries of the two paralegals who worked full time on claims processing, the salary of the accountant who cut the checks, the cost of claims forms, checks, envelopes, and postage, and depreciation on the office equipment dedicated to the processing. Some of the paralegals’ time appears to vary with the routine processing of uncontested claims, but considerable time also appears to be spent on the claims that have incomplete documentation or are contested. The accountant’s time appears to vary with the number of claims processed.

Li Ming was able to separate the costs of processing claims from the costs of running the departments of accounting and human resources. He gathered the data on claims processing cost and the number of claims processed per month for the past 6 months. These data are as follows:

Required:

1. Classify the claims processing costs that Li Ming identified as variable and fixed.

2. What is the independent variable?

What is the dependent variable?

3. Use the high-low method to find the fixed cost per month.
$

Use the high-low method to find the variable rate. Round to two decimal places.
$ per claim

What is the cost formula?
Total cost of claims processing = $ + ( $ per unit ×   )

4. Conceptual Connection: Suppose that an outside company bids on the claims processing business. The bid price is $4.60 per claim. If Tiffany expects 75,600 claims next year, should she outsource the claims processing or continue to do it in-house?

Java Question here. Need to write a program that will check ANY operating system and find out OS name and then write that info to a file in the data directory.

here is where I am so far:

    public void writeOSName() {
        
        // TODO write the name of the operating system running this code to a file
        //  in the data directory called os.txt
        
        // The file has to be written in the data directory of this project
        // Use System Properties to get the operating system name.
        // Remember this exact same code needs to work on a Mac/Linux and Windows computer without any modifications.
        
        // Handle any exceptions in this method. Do not declare that this method throws any exceptions.
        
        // If possible, test your code on two types of operating systems: Windows, and Mac/Linux.
        String osSystem = System.getProperty("os.name");
        if (osSystem.contains("Windows" )) {
           File filePath = new File("mydirectory", "os.txt");

        } else {

        }
        String version = System.getProperty("os.version");
//        System.out.println(osSystem);
//        System.out.println(version);
        try (BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("os.txt"))) {
            bw.write(System.getProperty("os.name", "\n"));
            //bw.write(System.getProperty("os.version", "\n"));

        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("Error: " + e);
        }
    }

On October 8th 2020, a CBC article was published that detailed the investment of public funds by both the governments of Canada and Ontario into Ford Motor Company to help them upgrade their Oakville plant for the production of electric vehicles. This upgrade will make the Oakville plant Ford’s largest electric vehicle factory in North America. Both governments described their investment as a “win-win” because they promote employment, technology innovation and “our transition to a low-carbon, clean-growth economy.”

a) Perhaps Ford Motor Company’s decision to accelerate their capacity to manufacture electric vehicles signals their understanding of planetary boundaries. If this were the case, and drawing on concepts from class on business and the natural world, how would electric vehicle production lessen the stress on any specific planetary boundary, and would this strategic shift reflect an adaptation strategy, a mitigation strategy, or both? Explain.

Immunity’s Early-Warning System. Scientific American, January 2005.

How does the innate immune system recognize pathogens?

After recognizing pathogens, what is the response of the innate immune system? (ie. What action does it take?)

How does the innate immune response promote and adaptive immune response?

How can an immune response contribute to disease?

How can exposure to LPS lead to septic shock? What is a situation in which one would be exposed to LPS?

In what organism were Toll proteins first discovered?

What happens when a bacteria binds a TLR, for example LPS binding to TLR-4? How is the signal transmitted from the receptor to the cell, and in general what does it tell the cell to do?

Which TLR is a current target for improving the effectiveness of vaccines, ie. To act as an adjuvant?

The project is about airline revenue and the factors that impact it. All the knowledge you obtain in chapter 4, is enough to do the project.

Revenue of an airline is influenced by several factors, including fuel cost, employees’ salary, operating expenses, maintenance costs, fleet size, available seats. This project aims to find out the influence of some of these factors on revenue for U.S. airline industry for the period of 11 years.

In airline industry one of the variables that represent revenue is “Revenue Passenger mile”.

Attached is the data (revenue passenger mile, fuel cost, salary cost and seat available” of some U.S. airlines for the period of 2005 till 2015. Data has been collected from The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) database.

Each team should use regression tool to interpret the relation between revenue of airlines and the above mention factors for each year.

Each team should run a regression for each year separately, write the regression equations for each year and compare in which year each of these three factors impacts revenue the most and the least.

Finally, run the regression for whole the period and write the equation line for all observation and interpret the result in terms of the positive/negative influence of factors on revenue.
