You are negotiating a contract with a new customer to deliver one of the components for their product. You estimate that on average you should be able to deliver the product in 8 hours once the customer places the order. Based on historical data, you believe it is reasonable to assume the standard deviation is 1 hour and that actual delivery times are normally distributed. The customer offers you a bonus for deliveries when you are able to deliver the component in less than 6.5 hours. The customer also wants you to pay a penalty on deliveries that do not arrive within 9 hours. You expect an average of 3 deliveries per day for this customer. Assume 300 business days a year. You have estimated that average profit per on-time (within 6.5 – 9 hour) delivery will be $5. However, if you get a bonus (delivery < 6.5 hours), your profit becomes $6 per delivery. On the other hand, if you have to pay penalty (delivery > 9 hours), your profit goes down to $3 per delivery (22 points total for a-d) a) On what % of deliveries do you expect to receive a bonus? b) On what % of deliveries do you expect to pay a penalty? c) In a year how many deliveries will be on time 6.5-9 hours)? d) What is your estimate for the total yearly profit from this customer? Assume 3 deliveries per day and 300 business days in a year Based on the calculations above, you consider the 9-hour time limit is too high a risk. Your customer is also adamant that you must deliver within 9 hours, otherwise pay a penalty. To keep the customer happy, you are thinking of making some changes in your delivery process to reduce the chance of late deliveries (> 9 hours). From your statistics class, you know that you can achieve this by reducing the -1) average delivery time; or, 2) the standard deviation of delivery time; or 3) both average and standard deviation of delivery time. e) If you are unable to change the standard deviation of the delivery time, what should be the average delivery time so that no more than 5% of the deliveries are late (late = takes more than 9 hours. Current average delivery time = 8 hours, standard deviation of delivery time = 1 hour) f) On the other hand, if you are unable to change the average delivery time, what should be the standard deviation of the delivery process so that no more than 5% of the deliveries are late (late = takes more than 9 hours, Current average delivery time = 8 hours, standard deviation of delivery time = 1 hour)

Question: Company X uses fermentation to produce a valuable industrial chemical. A startup company approaches X with a novel microbe that will increase the yield of the chemical, so that profits will increase by an estimated $14.0k/mo. The startup company wishes to sell the rights to use the microbe for a seven-year period, at a price of $480k.

Engineers at company X estimate the increased production will entail additional maintenance, costing $12.0k in year 2, $14.0k in year 4, and $17.0k in year 6 of the project.

1. What would a cash flow diagram of the project, from the standpoint of Company X?

2. How can I calculate the present value of the project, assuming a 13.0% annual interest rate?

3. Using Excel, make a well-formatted graph of the project present value vs. interest rate, for interest rates ranging from 0 to 30% APR.

Use the quality/quantity maximization model to explain why studies have shown the following: A) Not-for-profit psychiatric hospitals are no more efficient than their for-profit counterparts after controlling for for quality. B) Not-for-profit hospitals provide a higher quality of care as measured by the number of violations and complaints received.

Question 3

In a study conducted on 335 primary school students in a small district in Malaysia, students at primary levels 4-6 were asked which goal in terms of good grades, athletic ability or popularity (being popular in school) was most important to them. A two-way table (Table 3.1) separating the students by their educational levels and goals is shown below:

Table 3.1

1. To investigate possible differences among the students' goals by educational levels, a researcher suggested that it is useful to compute the column percentages. You are required to compute the column percentages and explain the meaning of these percentages. Do the results suggest that there is much of a variation in goals across the three educational levels?   
2. The dataset from the same study now divides the students' responses into "Urban," "Suburban," and "Rural" school areas as shown in Table 3.2. You are required to conduct a Chi-Squared test to investigate whether there is an association between school area and the students' goals of getting good grades, athletic ability or popularity as most important to them?

Windmill Ltd commenced a takeover of its principal competitor WindPower Ltd in June 2019. The takeover was hostile and WindPower Ltd fought it vigorously.

WindPower Ltd was under financial stress due to misappropriation of funds by a former employee. This provided Windmill Ltd with the opportunity to mount the takeover.

Estimated Income Statements, using Absorption and Variable Costing

Prior to the first month of operations ending October 31 Marshall Inc. estimated the following operating results:

The company is evaluating a proposal to manufacture 29,600 units instead of 26,400 units, thus creating an Inventory, October 31 of 3,200 units. Manufacturing the additional units will not change sales, unit variable factory overhead costs, total fixed factory overhead cost, or total selling and administrative expenses.

a. 1. Prepare an estimated income statement, comparing operating results if 26,400 and 29,600 units are manufactured in the absorption costing format. If an amount box does not require an entry leave it blank or enter “0”.

a. 2. Prepare an estimated income statement, comparing operating results if 26,400 and 29,600 units are manufactured in the variable costing format. If an amount box does not require an entry leave it blank or enter “0”.

b. What is the reason for the difference in income from operations reported for the two levels of production by the absorption costing income statement?

The increase in income from operations under absorption costing is caused by the allocation of   overhead cost over a   number of units. Thus, the cost of goods sold is  . The difference can also be explained by the amount of   overhead cost included in the   inventory.
