12. Suppose that a firm’s production function is given by Q = K0.75L0.25, the wage rate is w = $20 per unit of labor and the rental rate is r = $100 per unit of capital.

  1. What is the marginal rate of technical substitution between labor and capital, ????'( (where labor is graphed on the x-axis and capital is on the y-axis)?

  2. If the firm produces 1000 units of output by using 1000 units of labor and 1000 units of capital, how much is the firm spending in total? Is it minimizing its cost of producing 1000 units? If not, explain in general terms how the firm should adjust.

  3. What is the cost-minimizing input combination for the firm to produce 1000 units? What is the cost of this input bundle? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

  4. Suppose the firm wants to produce 1000 units of output, and its capital level is fixed at K = 500 in the short run. How many units of L should the firm use? What is the firm’s total cost of producing the 1000 units of output?

a)   Using a 95% confidence level, plot the overall percentage of late flights ( p ) and the upper and lower control limits on a control chart.

b)   Assume that the airline industry’s upper and lower control limits for flights that are not on time are .1000 and .0400, respectively. Draw them on your control chart.

c)   Plot the percentage of late flights in each sample. Do all samples fall within New England Air’s control limits? When one falls out-side the control limits, what should be done?

d)   What can Clair Bond report about the quality of service?

  1. Comparing ABC and Plantwide Overhead Cost Assignments

    Wellington Chocolate Company uses activity-based costing (ABC). The controller identified two activities and their budgeted costs:

    Setting up equipment $270,000
    Other overheard $2,160,000

    Setting up equipment is based on setup hours, and other overhead is based on oven hours.
    Wellington produces two products, Fudge and Cookies. Information on each product is as follows:

    Fudge Cookies
    Units produced 8,000 445,000
    Setup hours 4,000 1,000
    Oven hours 1,800 12,600

    Required:

    Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar, unless otherwise directed.

    1. Calculate the activity rate for (a) setting up equipment and (b) other overhead.

    a. Setting up equipment $ per setup hour
    b. Other overhead $ per oven hour

    2. How much total overhead is assigned to Fudge using ABC?
    $

    3. What is the unit overhead assigned to Fudge using ABC? Round to the nearest cent.
    $per unit

    4. Now, ignoring the ABC results, calculate the plantwide overhead rate, based on oven hours. Round to the nearest cent.
    $ per oven hour

    5. How much total overhead is assigned to Fudge using the plantwide overhead rate?
    $

    6a. The difference in the total overhead assigned to Fudge is different under the ABC system and non–ABC system because  .

    6b. What is the difference in total overhead assigned to fudge under the two methods?

A 50·g ice cube (at 0°C) is placed in an insulated cup with 250·g of water which is at 46°C. The latent heat of fusion for ice is 80·cal/g and the specific heat of water is 1.0·cal/g/°C.

(a) How much heat will the ice have to absorb from the water to completely melt (and turn into 0°C water)? ___ cal.

(b) Find the temperature of the 250·g of water initially at 46°C after it loses the heat required to melt the ice.? ___ °C.

(c) How much heat will the 250·g of warmer water have to transfer to the cooler water in order for its temperature to drop by 1°C? ____ cal.

(d) How much will the temperature of the 50·g of cooler water rise when it gains the heat lost by the warmer water as it cools by 1°C? ____°C.

(e) Using your results from the two previous parts, continue to follow the process of heat transfer between the warmer and cooler water until they come to equilibrium. At what temperature will they reach thermal equilibrium? _____°C.

In python I have my code written and I want just 4 functions to be fix in my code according to rule. My code is running but it has some problem regarding to rules. (I have did all the other things so you do not have to worry about other functions)

1) all the players has to play until he/she reaches to at least 500 points in first round.

When user reach 500 points for the first time, user may choose to immediately end his turn to prevent losing the points.

If you user did choose to save his turn and if he get farkle the score will be 0. (This is just for the first round.)

2) fix my scoring according to point table.

point table for game:

5 = 50 points

1 = 100 points

Triplet of 1 = 300 points "Example(1,1,1)"

Triplet of 2 = 200 points

Triplet of 3 = 300 points

Triplet of 4 = 400 points

Triplet of 5 = 500 points

Triplet of 6 = 600 points

Four of a Kind [Example(4,4,4,4)] = 1,000 points

Five of a Kind[Example(4,4,4,4,4)] = 2,000 points

Six of a Kind [Example(4,4,4,4,4,4)] = 3,000 points

(1,2,3,4,5,6 ) = 1,500 points

Three Pairs [Example(4,4,2,2,1,1)]= 1,500 points

Four of a Kind + a Pair [Example(4,4,4,4,1,1)]= 1,500 points

Two sets of Three of a Kind [Example(4,4,4,6,6,6)] = 2,500 points

NOTE(single 2,3,4,6 does not have any point.)

3) there are six die in game and I have already implement it but it not working as rules.

computer have to Take out any dice worth points after each roll.

user has to Roll the remaining dice,

removing any dice worth points and adding them to your running total.

If user are ever able to set aside all six dice, user can roll again all of his dice and keep building his running total.

If ever user are unable to set aside any dice ( dice contain 0 points), user have Farkled. user lose his running point total and his turn is over.

4) Winning (I have also did little bit but i want to make it simple so can you see it and fix)

If any player score 10,000 points in game

The end game sequence will start

Each other player has one turn to try to beat score of player who scored 10,000 points.

After all remaining players have had their turn, the player with the highest score wins.

you should enter the number of players as a parameter ( 2 to 6 players) .

I am unsure as to why I cannot solve my Computer Science question I was just wondering if someone could show me exactly what they would do the code is in C++:

write a program that display the following manual for user to chose among calculations

Please select one of the following:

  1. addition
  2. subtraction
  3. multiplication
  4. division
  5. exit

The program will then read in the user entry.

when the user chose "1", it will ask the user "Please enter two numbers separated by space:", read these two numbers into variables, add them and display the sum; when the user chose "2", it will ask the user "Please enter two numbers separated by space:", read these two numbers into variables, subtract the 2nd number from the first one and display the result; when the user chose "3", it will ask the user "Please enter two numbers separated by space:", read these two numbers into variables, multiply them and display the product; when the user chose "4", it will ask the user "Please enter two numbers separated by space:", read these two numbers into variables, divide the first number by the 2nd number, and display the quotient; when the user chose "5", exit the program; when what the user entered is not within the range of 1~5, display "This is Not a valid choice."
