Assume that you have two cylindrical steel samples with 1 in diameter, one made out of AISI 1045 and another one made out of AISI 4140. You austenitize and quench both samples in oil. Then you cut a section and measure the hardness at the center of each sample. Would you expect to get the same results? Explain your answer.

Problem IX A,B,C: Consider the following valuations table for five consumers willing to purchase two differently colored T-shirts:

a) Assuming no production costs, what is the most profitable way to price these two goods independently? What are the prices and resulting profit?

b) Assuming no production costs, what is the most profitable way to price these two goods using bundling? Analyze both pure and mixed bundling, state the prices and resulting profits and choose the best option.

c) Assuming costs of production of $27 per t-shirt (regardless of color), what is the most profitable bundling pricing strategy? Specify whether it’s better to use mixed or pure bundling, then record the optimal prices and resulting profit.

Please answer this question in complete detail as I don't understand this subject too well. Thank you

Johnson Corporation has an expected monthly capacity of 9,000 units but only 5,700 units were produced and 6,000 direct labor hours were used during August due to Covid-19. The actual variable overhead for August was $48,165, and the actual fixed overhead was $140,220.

Standard cost data follow:

1) What is the Variable Manufacturing Overhead Spending Variance? State if it is Favorable (FA) or Unfavorable (UN).

2) What is the Variable Manufacturing Overhead Efficiency Variance? State if it is Favorable (FA) or Unfavorable (UN).

3) What is the Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Spending Variance? State if it is Favorable (FA) or Unfavorable (UN).

4) What is the Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Volume Variance? State if it is Favorable (FA) or Unfavorable (UN).

5) How can you make the volume variance more favorable (if your answer was favorable) or less unfavorable (if your answer was unfavorable)? Explain

Australian cattle dogs are known to have a high prevalence of congenital deafness. Deafness in both ears is referred to as bilateral deafness, while deafness in one ear is referred to as unilateral deafness. Deafness in dogs is associated with the white spotting gene S that controls the expression of coat and eye pigmentation. The dominant allele S produces solid color, while the three recessive alleles contribute to increasing amounts of white in coat pigmentation: Irish spotting (s i ), piebald (s p ), and extreme white piebald (s w). The s p and s w alleles are responsible for the distinctive Australian cattle dog coat pattern of white hair evenly speckled throughout either a predominantly red or black coat. The dogs are born with white coats, and the speckled pattern develops as they age. While all Australian cattle dogs have some combination of the s p and s w alleles, the gene displays incomplete penetrance such that individuals show some variation in phenotype despite having the same genotype. Individuals with low penetrance of the alleles tend to have additional patterns on their coat, such as a dark “mask” around one or both eyes (in other words, a unilateral mask or a bilateral mask). High penetrance of the piebald alleles is associated with deafness. Suppose that 40% of Australian cattle dogs have black coats; these individuals are commonly referred to as “Blue Heelers” as opposed to “Red Heelers”. Among Blue Heelers, 35% of individuals have bilateral masks and 25% have unilateral masks. About 50% of Red Heelers exhibit no eye masking and 10% have bilateral masks. Let M represent the event that an Australian cattle dog has a facial mask, where M2 represents a bilateral mask, M1 represents a unilateral mask, and M0 indicates lack of a mask.

Unilateral deafness occurs in Red Heelers with probability 0.15, in both dogs that either lack facial masking or exhibit a unilateral mask; for both unmasked and unilaterally masked Red Heelers, 60% of dogs are not deaf. The overall prevalence of bilaterally masked Australian cattle dogs with bilateral deafness and red coats is 1.2% and the overall prevalence of bilaterally masked Australian cattle dogs with unilateral deafness and red coats is 4.5%; these prevalences are the same for Australian cattle dogs with black coats. Among Blue Heelers with either no facial masking or a unilateral mask, the probability of unilateral deafness is 0.05 and the probability of bilateral deafness is 0.01. Let D represent the event that an Australian cattle dog is deaf (i.e., deaf in at least one ear), where D2 represents bilateral deafness and D1 represents unilateral deafness.

i. What is the probability that an Australian cattle dog has a bilateral mask, no hearing deficits, and a red coat?

ii. Calculate the proportion of bilaterally masked Blue Heelers without hearing deficits.

iii. Compare the prevalence of deafness between Red Heelers and Blue Heelers.

iv. If a dog is known to have no hearing deficits, what is the probability it is a Blue Heeler?

The Cost of Natural Resources The high cost of oil in the Global South continues to have a detrimental effect on its population. What are the primary natural resources that are used in your state? If this natural resource became unavailable, how would that affect the state’s economy? How does the harvesting or collecting of this natural resource affect the natural environment?

Review the posts of your classmates and respond to at least one other post discussing how the natural resource they chose to write about would influence your community.

This assignment requires you to write a business letter based on the concepts of persuasive messages discussed in the lesson.

Scenario:
You are the member of a student organization at Northeast State University which works to provide professional development opportunities for students. You saw an interesting article in a college magazine describing a “Suitable Suits” program another university implemented. Its career development office kept a closet with 21 crisp black suits of all sizes that students could borrow for job interviews. Students would make an appointment with the office and agree to dry clean the suits before returning them. The program at that university was paid for by a grant. Your student organization believes this would be a good program to implement at Northeast State and should be housed in the Career Services office.

Instructions:
Write a thorough letter to Ginger Martin, Director of Career Services, to persuade her to consider implementing a “Suitable Suits” program in the Career Services office. Think about what you are asking her to do, consider any objections she may have, anticipate her questions, make a strong case, consider what persuasion strategy you want to use, determine how to gain her attention and build interest, plan on how to reduce resistance, consider a motivating action.

Format the letter based on the guidelines discussed in the lesson or refer to Appendix A of your textbook. The letter should include the following guidelines:

Include a page header with your organization’s name and address

The address to your organization is NSU Box 321, University City, CO 45612

Send the letter to Ms. Ginger Martin

Her address is NSU Box 654, University City, CO 45612

Include the date

Include the inside address (who it is addressed to)

Include a salutation

Include an appropriate subject line

Include a complimentary closing

Include your printed name and title
