public double smallSquareArea ( L1)

{

area = L1 * L1;

return area;

}

return area;

}

2. Code 2:

class Student

{

private string name;

public void getStudentMarks ( );

}

public void getStudentMarks ( );

}

3. Code 3:

public void accountInfo(string account_title, string account_number, string account_type)

if(account_type == “Current”)

{

// do something

}

else if (account_type == “Saving”)

{

// do something

}

else

{

//do something

}

//Account information

System.out.println(“***** Account Information *****”);

System.out.println(“Account_Title : ” , account_title);

System.out.println(“Account Number : ” , account_number);

ROA (Return on assets) is a rate that measures the net income compared to the total assets. In other words, it shows how much the company is generating for each dollar invested. It is helpful to compare the results of the companies in the market. A company can be very lucrative, but not efficient. It can demand too much investment to obtain that profit.

The ROE (Return on equity) is very similar to ROA, but it includes the debt of the company. It is calculated by dividing the Net Income by the Stakeholder's equity. Since the stakeholder's equity is the total assets minus the debt of the company, this index shows the return compared to the own capital of the company

a. Josiah Bartlett collects 2 goods, carving knives (C) and antique books (B). His utility function is U(C, B) = 2C + B (they are perfect substitutes). Find Josiah’s demand curve for carving knives if he has $100 to spend and the price of antique books is $10.

b. Josiah's assistant Charlie collects the same two goods but has a different utility function: U(C, B) = min{2C, B} (they are perfect complements). Find Charlie’s demand curve for carving knives if he has $100 to spend and the price of antique books is $10.

Create a class with the name "Student".

private data members of the Student class should include:

int - rollno (roll number or id number of student)

string - name (name of student)

int - alg, datastruct, architect, proglang (hold scores out of 100 for these 4 classes)

float - per (average score of 4 classes above)

char - grade (letter grade based on per.. example 90 is an A)

public member functions of the Student class should include:

getdata() (function to accept data from user

showdata() (function to show data on screen

Create a constructor that initializes all int to 0, float to 0.0, char to ' ', name = "NoName".

Prompt the user for a valid class size.

Prompt the user for student data.

Store students in a vector.

Display student data including students average score and letter grade.

The following is an example:

The purpose of this assignment is to allow you to understand scenarios and customer experiences in which AI and RPA can be used. You might need to do some additional research on specific technologies related to AI to complete the assignment.

First, select a current process that you face in your daily life. It might be something you face in your work, or at school, or in your personal life. For this process, complete the following:

1. Select a current process that you face in your daily life. It might be something you face in your work, or at school, or in your personal life. Use one or two paragraphs of text to explain the context for the process.

2. Create a simple process diagram describing this process. You can simply use boxes and arrows to identify the steps. Highlight which of those steps could be sources of “pain points” (that is, frustrate people interacting with the processes) and explain why. You will need to upload a file for this prompt.

3. Create a new version of the process where RPA and AI could be used to decrease (or even eliminate) the pain points. Your new process model should highlight the steps in which RPA and/or AI are used. For each use of RPA or AI technologies explain what that technology does and how you are using that specific technology. For each use of RPA or AI technologies explain how that technology would decrease (or even eliminate) the pain point.

Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis Excel Assignment

Introduction:

Congratulations! You have finally been promoted to the position of Division Manager with your long time employer Solar Co., a manufacturer of solar panels.  It is now your responsibility to take the lead for corporate planning, analysis and oversight of the company’s soleproduct- solar panels. Much of the company’s future success or failure rides with your insight and leadership.  

Your analysis for the coming year is extremely challenging given current economic conditions, random government programs and competition from lower cost non-U.S. manufacturers.  You will be required to forecast changes in the company’s fixed and variable costs for 2019 to determine its break even point, and then proceed to completing its Master Budget for 2016 based upon these forecasts.

As a wholly owned subsidiary of a large diversified company, management is under pressure to deliver an increase of 8 % over 2018’s Income Before Taxes.

Situation as of Year-End 2018:

Sales Price:  1 (one) Solar Panel sells for $400.

Sales Volume: 200,000 Solar Panels were sold this past year.

Current capacity: 220,000 units (there is no plan (or budget) to expand operating capacity for 2018)

Fixed Costs:

            ManufacturingOverhead:

                        Facility Rent:$400,000

Management Salaries: $1,200,000

Depreciation, machinery: $40,000

                        Maintenance and repair:  $60,000

                        Other overhead expenses:  $24,000

Selling and Administrative Costs:

Taxes and insurance:  $600,000

Sales salaries:  $180,000

Variable Costs:

Manufacturing Costs:

                        Materials: $180 per Solar Panel

                        Labor:$70 per Solar Panel

                        Employee Benefits: $20 per Solar Panel

                        Utilities:  $5 per Solar Panel

Selling and Administrative Costs:

Delivery expenses:  $60 per Solar Panel

Sales commissions:  $15 per Solar Panel

You have pondered the future for Solar Co. and have identified three very possible scenarios in which your company may have to operate:

Scenario 1:  The government institutes a program to support wind power that makes wind power relatively less expensive than other sources of energy.

Scenario 2:  One of raw materials used to make a solar panel increases dramatically forcing Solar Co. to increase their selling price per unit.

Scenario 3:  The “go green” mantra catches on (supported by government consumer tax credits) increasing demand for the company’s solar panels.
