Please use exact data provided here in this question.. An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/unloading methods have been proposed. To account for potential differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect due to the loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use = .05. Factor A is method of loading and unloading; Factor B is the type of ride.

A person can take either of two routes to work, through Matteson or Richton Park. Both take on average 35 minutes, and travel times are Normally distributed. But are the variances of the travel times different? A random sample with n = 8 using the Matteson route, and another random sample with n = 6 using the Richton Park route, showed a variance of 45 (units: square minutes) and 30 respectively. To test whether the variances are different, the following test of hypothesis should be done:

H0:

Linenpress Limited manufactures pillowcases which it supplies to a major hotel chain. It uses a just-in-time system and holds no inventories. The standard cost for the cotton which is used to make the pillowcases is £5 per m2. Each pillowcase uses 0.5m2 of cotton and production levels for November were as follows: Budgeted production Actual production (units) (units) Pillowcases 190,000 180,000 The actual cost of the cotton in November was £5·80 per m2 and 95,000m2 was used to make the pillowcases. The world commodity prices for cotton increased by 20% in the month of November. At the beginning of the month, the hotel chain made an unexpected request for an immediate design change to the pillowcases. The new design required 10% more cotton than previously. It also resulted in production delays and therefore a shortfall in production of 10,000 pillowcases in total that month. The production manager at Linenpress is responsible for all buying and any production issues which occur, although he is not responsible for the setting of standard costs. Part A

Calculate the following variances for the month of November:

Material price planning variance;

Material price operational variance;

Material usage planning variance;

Material usage operational variance.

Part B Discuss the performance of the production manager for the month of November in the context of your findings in Part A.

Part C Explain how the use of planning and operational variances can lead to more effective performance evaluation in an organisation.

Hotel housekeeping staff are paid minimum wage and receive almost no tips as most travelers either...

Hotel housekeeping staff are paid minimum wage and receive almost no tips as most travelers either do not tip or are “not aware” that tipping housekeeping staff is a commonly accepted practice. Further, housekeeping staff are typically operating on a strict time schedule and must complete their assigned tasks on schedule which further adds stress to their job.

A quote from the travel magazine Budget Travel in which a housekeeper relates:

I cut corners everywhere I could. Instead of vacuuming, I found that just picking up the larger crumbs from the carpet would do. Rather that scrub the tub with hot water, sometimes it was just a spray-and-wipe kind of day… After several weeks on the job, I discovered that the staff leader who inspected the rooms couldn’t tell the difference between a clean sink and one that was simply dry, so I would often just run a rag over the wet spots… I apologize to you now if you every stayed in one of my rooms. You deserved better. But if housekeepers were paid more than minimum wage – and the tips were a bit better – I might have cleaned your toilet rather than just flushed it.

What would you suggest hotel managers and/or owners do to minimize or eliminate this behavior by housekeeping staff? If this is a Principal / Agent problem what solution can be made to stop this and why?
