A parking garage charges a $2.00 minimum fee to park for up to three hours and additional $0.50 per hour over three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24-hour period is $10.00. Assume that no car parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that will calculate and print the parking charges for each of three customers who parked their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for each customer. Your program should print the results in a tabular format, and should calculate and print the total of yesterday's receipts. The program should use the function calculateCharges to determine the charge for each customer. Your output should display the car #, the hours entered and the total charge.

Write an anecdotal lead with a person focus from the following information; include a nut graph. Your focus is about the frustrations that students experience trying to park on campus because the parking department has sold too many permits.

Background: Nancy Pauw is a graduate student. One morning, she circled the parking lot east of the computer center three times before she found a parking space. Last year, there were 7,565 student parking permits sold for 3,930 spaces. “I have to get here an hour early so I can get to class on time,” Pauw says. She is one of many students (on your campus) who experience the daily frustration of not finding a parking spot even though they have purchases $30 and $50 permits.

In our textbook, we learn that Disney has acquired several companies throughout the years including Marvel for $4 billion in 2009. One main advantage that this acquisition allowed Disney to do is increase the differentiation in their product offerings. They were able to add and entire line of superheroes to the Disney character family, which also allowed to add Marvel character theme park rides, toys, and other merchandise. Not only did this benefit Disney, but the acquisition also added value to Marvel. "Because of economies of scope and economies of scale, Marvel is becoming more valuable inside Disney than as a standalone enterprise" (Rothaermel).

Our question for you is, besides being able to increase their product offerings, what other benefits do you think this acquisition brought to Disney as a company?

In this module, you learned about the components involved in the effective management of operations.

Bravo Community Hospital is a nonprofit hospital operated by the county. The hospital’s administrator is considering a proposal to open a new outpatient clinic in the nearby city of New Castle. The administrator has made the following estimates pertinent to the proposal.

1. Construction of the clinic building will cost $840,000 in two equal installments of $420,000, to be paid at the end of 20x0 and 20x1. The clinic will open on January 2, 20x2. All staffing and operating costs begin in 20x2.
2. Equipment for the clinic will cost $105,000, to be paid in December of 20x1.
3. Staffing of the clinic will cost $720,000 per year.
4. Other operating costs at the clinic will be $138,000 per year.
5. Opening the clinic is expected to increase charitable contributions to the hospital by $210,000 per year.
6. The clinic is expected to reduce costs at Allegheny Community Hospital. Annual cost savings at the hospital are projected to be $920,000.
7. A major refurbishment of the clinic is expected to be necessary toward the end of 20x5. This work will cost $135,000.
8. Due to shifting medical needs in the county, the administrator doubts the clinic will be needed after 20x9.
9. The clinic building and equipment could be sold for $210,000 at the end of 20x9.
10. The hospital’s hurdle rate is 12 percent.

Use Appendix A for your reference. (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Required:

1. 1-3. Fill in the following table to compute the net present value of the proposed outpatient clinic.

2. 4. Should the administrator recommend to the hospital's trustees that the clinic be built? YES OR NO

Fill in the following table to compute the net present value of the proposed outpatient clinic. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your "Discount factors" to 3 decimal places.)

Djoko Padang, president of Marawi Steel corporation, was to decide on whether or not to continue or divest from its oldest foundry plant, the Maramag foundry. The foundry was located in the original site of the company and had been left out in the recent modernization of its main foundry facilities. They already have put up a much larger foundry in a location near Iligan City. Upon intensification of competition Djoko modernized the foundry's materials handling and casting process and changed the factory layout, financed by loans from commercial and government owned banks. The Maramag foundry was not involved in this modernization. It is considered "totally obsolete". Following options were identified for the older Maramag foundry: a.) Continue to operate the facility without further investments b.) sell foundry machineries as scrap to scrap dealers c. ) sell the foundry as a continuing business to other foundry companies d. invest in new equipment and reposition the foundry in the market a specialized products plant.

a.) has been difficult for management as customers were more accessible from the larger Iligan foundry. Only small job orders and those requiring special metal alloys or dies could be produced at the maramag plant in the cost effective wa. maramag foundry was incurring net operating losses of 2 million pesos per year, inclusive of depreciation of 3.5 milliion pesos per year. the Maramag foundry manager, Pedro Ressa, is especially dedicated to running the plant as he has been Chandra's partner since the plant was built. He believes that the prices are still easily cover materials and operating cost. He was told by the accountant that there are only two more years remaining of depreciation before the plant is considered "zero book value". he cannot make it run beyon the next two years without additional machinery and changes in the plant. When zero book value is recognized he suggests to give back the profits and allow him to invest in the foundry.

b. Selling the Maramac foundry as scrap and reusable equipment was estimated to generate cash proceeds of 3.5 million pesis. Scrap dealers in the area and factories assured management of this minimum proceeds.

c. A local foundry offered to buy the maramag foundry for 6 million pesos. The proposed buyer wanted to operate the foundry after refurbishing its equipment to handle expansion in its sales. Price offered was comparable to scrapping option because it excluded all supplies, parts and inventories which were to be taken out by the company. land and equipment were to be a separate consideration. Djoko was concerned that the option may cause a loss of existing clinet not only of the Maramag foundry but also of the main Foundry's. A check of client files indicated that the clients in maramag market area contributed to profits of the main plant by about php 800,000 annually.

c. Additional investments to extend the operational life and make the Maramag foundry more cost efficient was estimated to cost php 15M. Useful life of the foundry could be extended by 5 more years. Djoko believed that the most viable approach for running the Maramag foundry was to convert it to a specialized foundry that would manufacture special order products for all the clients of the company, including orders presently handled at the Iligan main foundry. Following this "best plan"of operations, the estimated annual sales of the refurbished Maramag foundry to be about php 30M per year. Annual contribution to profits before depreciation expense at this sales level was estimated at php 5.5M.

Djoko is concerned about the high risks involved in investing another php 15M in an old foundry. Financing was through more loans but sourcing was not a problem. But if the project fails the additional burden of repayment would hurt the company. Djoko was confident that the company had a sufficiently large client base that could justify remodelling the mMaramag foundry for special casting jobs. He was concerned that a remodelled maramag foundry may be "too large" and less nimble compared to small job shops.

Question one: State a goal for the company that Djoko should set in evaluation the options on the Maramag foundry

Cost is classified on the basis of behaviour as fixed cost, variable cost and semi-variable cost. You are required to explain these 3 elements of cost with an example in an engineering organization

Assignment Exercise 23–1: Cost of Owning and Cost of Leasing Cost of owning and cost of leasing tables are reproduced below.

Required Using the appropriate table from the Chapter 13 Time Value of Money Appendices appearing as 13-A, 13-B, and 13-C, record the present-value factor at 10% for each year and compute the present-value cost of owning and the present value of leasing. Which alternative is more desirable at this interest rate? Do you think your answer would change if the interest rate was 6% instead of 10%?

This basic problem is a practical application of if-statement(s).

Write a function called bolt_check that takes one scalar input argument and returns one scalar output argument. The input represents the measured length of a machine screw during the quality-assurance phase of its manufacturing. The purpose of the function is to categorize the measured length into one of six categories. If the measured length is within two percent of one of its five nominal lengths-- 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, or 1 (inch), then the nominal length is returned. Otherwise 0 is returned, signifying that the bolt failed the test. You may find that the built-in function abs for absolute value is useful for this problem.
