Fogerty Company makes two products—titanium Hubs and Sprockets. Data regarding the two products follow:
| Direct Labor-Hours per Unit |
Annual Production |
||
| Hubs | 0.80 | 12,000 | units |
| Sprockets | 0.40 | 48,000 | units |
Additional information about the company follows:
Hubs require $35 in direct materials per unit, and Sprockets require $17.
The direct labor wage rate is $13 per hour.
Hubs require special equipment and are more complex to manufacture than Sprockets.
The ABC system has the following activity cost pools:
| Estimated | Activity | ||||
| Activity Cost Pool (Activity Measure) | Overhead Cost | Hubs | Sprockets | Total | |
| Machine setups (number of setups) | $ | 20,250 | 125 | 100 | 225 |
| Special processing (machine-hours) | $ | 148,000 | 3,700 | 0 | 3,700 |
| General factory (organization-sustaining) | $ | 259,200 | NA | NA | NA |
Required:
1. Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool.
2. Determine the unit product cost of each product according to the ABC system.

Provide the optimal Solution to the problems below using java code and include Time Complexity Analysis!
In an Array of integers, a “peak” is an element which is greater than or equal to the adjacent integers and a “valley” is an element which is less than or equal to the adjacent integers. For example, the array {5, 8, 6, 2, 3, 4, 6}, {8, 6} are peaks and {5, 2} are valleys. Give an array of integers, sort the array into an alternating sequence of peaks and valleys.
EXAMPLE
INPUT:
{5, 3, 1, 2, 3}
OUTPUT:
{5, 1, 3, 2, 3}
You are given a list of projects and a list of dependencies (Which is a list of pairs of projects, where the second project is dependent on the first project). All of a project’s dependencies must be built before the project is. Find a build order that will allow the projects to be built. If there is no valid build order, return an error.
EXAMPLE
INPUT:
Projects: a, b, c, d, e, f
Dependencies: (a, d), (f ,b), (b, d), (f, a), (d, c)
OUTPUT:
f, e, a, b, d, c

Assume that you are given a task to design a system for a vehicular network (or any cloud computing system). Briefly discuss security requirements for such a system. Outline a security architecture that could achieve the specified security goals in the scenario. You must include in your discussion of the security limitations of your approach. Note that this is intended to be an open-ended problem and your alternative security architecture may or may not exist as a specific product or system, so you are expected to think creatively about this solution. It is likely that you will need to undertake some research to assist in answering this part of the problem.

3) Consider the following IA32 assembly language code fragment. Assume that a, b and c are integer variables declared in the data segment.
movl a, %eax
movl b, %ebx
cmpl %ebx, %eax
jge L1
movl %eax, %ecx
jmp L2
L1: movl %ebx, %ecx
L2: movl %ecx, c
Write the C code which is equivalent to the above assembly language code. You don't need to include the variable declarations, a function or anything like that, just show the 1 to 4 lines of code in C that express what the above assembly code is doing:

The CEO of Fullbrix Dana Alcar (a 20-year veteran of Supply chain business frameworks) has given all powers to the running of the company to five Senior Vice-Presidents. Fullbrix is a Satellite spare parts provider that has four key clients. The company employs 200 employees and has a management team of 27. With five Senior Vice-Presidents running the company and running it well, the Board of Directors have begun an investigation on what the CEO is doing with her time. Initial investigations found that the CEO was building a broader base to support an alternative structure than the four key clients the company serves. The alternative would be 14 other companies that provide the same revenue as the present 4 companies. The 10-member Board of Directors are 50/50 split on their decision. One group wants to fire the present CEO and replace her with one of the Senior Vice Presidents and the other wants to keep things as they are.
20. Using terms discussed in class, can Dana Alcar’s leadership qualities help her to succeed in the long run?
21. Using terms discussed in class, how do you think it would be possible to convince the 5 Board Members to stop their petition to remove the CEO?
22. What can Dana Alcar do to create a convincing case to the Board of Directors to keep her on?
