Valerie Fondl manages a Columbus, Ohio, movie theater complex called Cinema I, II, III, and IV. Each of the four auditoriums plays a different film; the schedule staggers starting times to avoid the large crowds that would occur if all four movies started at the same time. The theater has a single ticket booth and a cashier who can maintain an average service rate of 280 patrons per hour. Service times are assumed to follow an exponential distribution. Arrivals on a normally active day are Poisson distributed and average 210 per hour. To determine the efficiency of the current ticket operation, Valeri wishes to examine several queue-operating characteristics.
a. Find the average number of moviegoers waiting in line to purchase a ticket.
b. What percentage of the time is the cashier busy?
c. What is the average time that a customer spends in the system?
d. What is the average time spent waiting in line to get to the ticket window?
e. What is the probability that there are more than two people in the system? More than three people? More than four?

1. A retail store runs an advertising campaign on a radio station. They decide to measure the effectiveness of the campaign by measuring the increase in customers compared to previous days. They choose 35 days at random, and find the average number of customers to have increased by 83.3 customers per day. Historically, the number of customers per day has a standard deviation of 17.5 customers. What is the 95% confidence interval for the population mean increase in customers?

Problem #4 Mike Dreskin manages a large Los Angeles movie theater complex called Cinema I, II, III, and IV. Each of the four auditoriums plays a different film; the schedule is set so that starting times are staggered to avoid the large crowds that would occur if all four movies started at the same time. The theater has a single ticket booth and a cashier who can maintain an average service rate of 280 movie patrons per hour. Service times are assumed to follow an exponential distribution. Arrivals on a typically active day are Poisson distributed and average 210 per hour.
To determine the efficiency of the current ticket operation, Mike wishes to examine several queue operating characteristics.
(a) Find the average number of moviegoers waiting in line to purchase a ticket.
(b) What percentage of the time is the cashier busy?
(c) What is the average time that a customer spends in the system?
(d) What is the average time spent waiting in line to get to the ticket window?
(e) What is the probability that there are more than two people in the system?

Summary
Lewis wants you to write another script that shows a table of events at the Lyman Hall Theater over the next two weeks from the current date. He has already created three arrays for use with the script:
Lewis has already written the page content and provided style sheets for use with the page. Your job will be to write a script that selects the events that occur in the two-week window from the current date and display them in the web page.
A preview of the home page is shown above.
The style sheets and graphic files have already been created for you. Your job is to write the HTML markup.
Instructions
This Review Assignment contains interactive instructions that you can complete to ensure you've completed the instruction correctly.
After reading each instruction thoroughly, perform the requested change in the code editor to the right. You can use the Build Website button to refresh your website preview at any point and view a full-page version of your website by clicking the arrow in the top right corner of your website preview.
After you've completed an instruction, click the corresponding check box in your list of instructions. This will trigger simulated tests of your website to ensure that you successfully completed the instruction.
Click Next Step to get started!
Setup
Enter your name and the date in the comment section of lht_events.html and lht_table.js.
Link JS Files
Open the lht_events.html file and directly above the closing </head> tag, insert script elements that link the page to the lht_list.js and lht_table.js files in that order. Defer the loading and running of both script files until after the page has loaded.
You will not be tested on this instruction, but you should still complete this step.
Event List
Scroll down the document and directly after the closing
</article> tag insert a div element with the ID
eventList. It is within this element that you will
write the HTML code for the table of upcoming theater events.
(Hint : Be sure to review this file and all the support files,
noting especially the names of variables that you will be using in
the code you create.)
Variables
Go to the lht_table.js file and below the comment section, declare a variable named thisDay containing the date August 30, 2018. You will use this date to test your script.
Create a variable named tableHTML that will contain the HTML code of the events table. Add the text of the following HTML code to the initial value of the variable:
<table id='eventTable'> <caption>Upcoming Events</caption> <tr><th>Date</th><th>Event</th><th>Price</th></tr>
Lewis only wants the page to list events occurring within 14 days after the current date. Declare a variable named endDate that contains a Date object that is 14 days after the date stored in the thisDay variable.
(Hint : Use the new Date() object constructor and insert a time value that is equal to thisDay.getTime() + 14 x 24 x 60 x 60 x 1000.)
For Loop
Create a for loop that loops through the length of the eventDates array. Use i as the counter variable.
Within the for loop insert the following commands in a command block:
<tr> <td> eventDay @ eventTime </td> <td> description </td> <td> price </td> </tr>
HTML Table Code
After the for loop, add the text of the HTML code </table> to the value of the tableHTML variable.
Insert the value of the tableHTML variable into the inner HTML of the page element with the ID eventList.

Kit Kat is a chocolate-covered wafer bar confection created by Rowntree's of York, United Kingdom, and is now produced globally by Nestlé, which acquired Rowntree in 1988, with the exception of the United States, where it is made under license by H. B. Reese Candy Company, a division of The Hershey Company. The standard bars consist of two or four pieces composed of three layers of wafer, separated and covered by an outer layer of chocolate. Each finger can be snapped from the bar separately. There are many different flavours of Kit Kat, including milk, white, and dark chocolate.
Q: Discuss how a SWOT analysis can help inform strategic marketing decision making for KitKat.

1. Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of €1,000, 9 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 8 percent paid annuallly. If the yield to maturity is 10 percent, what is the current price of the bond? €1,030.00 €1,128.94 $840.58 €929.06 €884.82 2. Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with 5 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $770. At this price, the bonds yield 7.9 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds? 2.25% 7.90% 2.80% 4.31% 2.15% 4. West Corp. issued 18-year bonds 2 years ago at a coupon rate of 9.5 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 105 percent of par value, what is the YTM? 9.80% 10.69% 8.02% 4.45% 8.91% |
