A methods and measurements analyst for Digital Devices needs to develop a time standard for the task of assembling a computer mouse. In a preliminary study, she observed one of her workers perform this task six times with the following results: Observation 1 2 3 4 5 6 Time(Seconds) 46 38 40 34 42 40 What is the standard time for this task if the employee worked at a 20 percent faster pace than average and an allowance of 25 percent of the workday is used.1. What is the observed time for this task?
2. What is the normal time for this task if the employee worked at a 20 percent faster pace than average?
3. What is the standard time for this task if the employee worked at a 20 percent faster pace than average and an allowance of 25 percent of job time is used?
4. How many observations should be made if she wants to be 86.64 percent confident that the maximum error in the observed time is .5 second? Assume that the standard deviation of the task time is four seconds.

Which stage of group development involves members introducing themselves to each other?

M. cotteleer electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. one of the components has an annual demand of 235 units, and this is constant throughout the year. carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering (setup) cost is $21 per order. a) to minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed? b) how many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy? c) what is the average inventory if costs are minimized? d) suppose that the ordering cost is not $21, and cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. for this order policy (of q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.

Sean lives in dallas and runs a business that sells boats. in an average year, he receives $722,000 from selling boats. of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $422,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totaling $268,000. he owns his showroom; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $2,000 in rent per year. assume that the value of this showroom does not depreciate over the year. also, if sean does not operate this boat business, he can work as a paralegal, receive an annual salary of $21,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his showroom at the $2,000 per year rate. no other costs are incurred in running this boat business.identify each of sean's costs in the following table as either an implicit cost or an explicit cost of selling boats.implicit costexplicit costthe wages and utility bills that sean pays the rental income sean could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom the salary sean could earn if he worked as a paralegal the wholesale cost for the boats that sean pays the
