Answer the question below based on the following scenario:
A company has $1,000,000 in annual sales and the owner pays himself 100% of profits. The cost-of-goods-sold is $900,000. The company manufactures 9,000 units each year. The present defect rate is about 3%. Assume that the price/unit is based on this information and is equal in each of the scenarios.
Also, 1) the cost/unit is calculated by dividing the number of saleable units by the total cost of goods sold and, 2) the price is assumed to remain at the same rate as the units are being sold at in the current situation.
Complete the blank cells and answer the question.

Consider the collectors' market for first editions of two popular children's books, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J. K. Rowling and Ruby in the Smoke by Philip Pullman. Sales of the Harry Potter novel are much greater than sales of Ruby in the Smoke yet the price of the Harry Potter novel is much lower than the price of Pullman's novel.
a. On one large diagram, draw a demand and supply graph for
first editions of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and
another demand and supply graph for first editions of Ruby in the
Smoke.
b. Show how it is possible for the price of the Harry Potter novel
to be much lower than the price of Pullman's novel, even though the
demand for the Harry Potter novel is much greater than the demand
forRuby in the Smoke.
c. Provide a written explanation to accompany your graphical illustration.

Lifetime of a particular laptop is exponential random variable with average of 5 years. A company orders 100 of such laptops. Find the probability that there are more than 20 laptops still in operation after 6 years from the date of purchase. (Hint: First compute the probability of one laptop still being in operation after 6 years. That will be the probability of ”success”. Then compute the probability that you’ve at least 20 out of 100 with that property.)

Question 7 (26)
Rims & Tyres is a company that specialises in the supply and fit of tyres and rims for all types of vehicles.
The company experiences a surge in demand for its product during certain times of the year. An analysis of its working capital requirements over the last 5 years indicates that it has a permanent funding requirement of R350 000 in operating assets and seasonal requirements that vary between R0 and R1 250 000, with an average seasonal requirement of R525 100.
The total peak need for cash is R1 600 000 and the average cash surplus is R724 900.
The company can borrow short-term funds at 12.5% and long-term funds at 8.0%. It can earn 7.0% on surplus fund investments.
Company management must decide on the most suitable funding strategy given the above circumstances. As a member of the management team, you have been assigned the task of using the information available to conduct a funding strategy analysis.
Show all calculations and round off all final answers to the closest rand.
7.1. Compare the annual costs for both an aggressive funding strategy and a conservative funding strategy. (20)
7.2. Which funding strategy would you recommend to the management of Rims & Tyres? Substantiate your recommendation. (6)

Write a C or C++ program using the fork() system call function. You will need to create 3 processes – each process will perform a simple task.
Firstly, create an integer "counter" initialized to a random value between 1 and 100. Print this number to the console. This can be done by:
Including the stdio.h and stdlib.h libraries
Using the rand() function to generate your randomly generated number
The main thread consists of the parent process. Your job is to create 3 child processes, as follow:
Process 1 prints out its current process ID and its parent process ID
The parent process will wait until this child is completed using the wait() function
Process 2 will create a for loop that increments the "counter" variable by 1, ten times. Print out the counter for each iteration.
The parent process will not wait for this child process to end, but instead it will print out the counter value to show that the child process does not share memory with the parent process.
Note: There’s a chance the code will execute out of order because the parentprocess does not wait for the child process.
Process 3 will create a for loop that increments the "counter" variable by 1, ten times. Print out the counter for each iteration.
The parent process will not wait for this child process and instead, the parent process will kill the child with the kill command.
Note: This is to show that this will either not run at all or only partially run due to being killed manually.
To run this CPP program on Unix or Linux, type: g++ prog1.cpp

As in the previous question: Quantity demanded for good A is given by the following:
Q(A) = 100 - 0.2P(A) - 0.1P(B)-0.5Y,
where P(A) is the price of good A, P(B) is the price of good B, and Y is consumer income.
What is the cross price elasticity of demand for good A with respect to a change in the price of good B when Q(A)=2 and P(B)=4?
Question 7 options:
|
E=-0.2*P(B)/Q(A)= -0.2*4/2 |
|
|
E=-0.2* Q(A)/ P(B)= -0.2*2/4 |
|
|
E=-0.1* Q(A)/ P(B)= -0.1*2/4 |
|
|
E=-0.1*P(B)/Q(A)= -0.1*4/2 |
As in the previous question: Quantity demanded for good A is given by the following:
Q(A) = 100 - 0.2P(A) - 0.1P(B)-0.5Y,
where P(A) is the price of good A, P(B) is the price of good B, and Y is consumer income.
Suppose Q(A)=2 and P(B)=4. If the price of good B is projected to increase by 10%, by how much will demand for good A change?
