If that 30% return on investment (ROI) occurs over a decade, r = .55 and n = 10, so the annualized rate of return is 0.0653 0.02658 0.0554 0.0201
The consultancy Imagination Inc. is working with its manufacturing client Parts-R-Us to improve their on-time performance. The firm can earn a bonus of up to $1,000,000 based on how much the on-time performance actually improves. It's current (baseline) on-time performance is 90%. The company typically completes approximately 1,000 orders per month, with approximately 100 orders delayed. The bonus payment is prorated according to the following criteria: · The on-time performance improvement is calculated based on a reduction in late events or an improvement in on-time performance. · No bonus is earned for the first 25% reduction in late events, say from 100 to 75. Maximum bonus is earned once Parts-R-Us achieves 95% on-time performance. Please answer the following: Write down a formula to determine the total bonus amount to be received Using your formula, show how much bonus would be paid if Parts-R-Us achieves 94% on-time performance.
Electricity is produced with water according to the function: E = 5 + 5W-1W² where E = kilowatt-hour and W = gallons of water. Water costs $0.02 per gallon. Electricity can be sold on the grid for $0.10 per kWh (kilowatt-hour). How much water should be purchased?
Normally the selling price of a product, p, is related to the demand according to the following relationship: p = a - bD. However, a company has found that the price (in dollars) of its product can be related to demand, D, according the following different equation: p = 88.5 -0.08(D0.75) Demand is given in units per year. In addition, there is a fixed cost of $40,000 per year and a variable cost to manufacture the product is $40 per unit. Determine the levels of demand that maximizes (a) total revenue, and (b) profit for this product.
Assume a pool of 115 people in an insurance pool (a group of people insured through community rating). It is estimated that a small number in the pool will have significant pre- existing conditions as indicated in the table. Based on the age of these 115 people, the insurance company estimates the following distribution of health care claims (which includes necessary profit and administrative costs of the insurance company). Number of Insured Antidipated Heath Costs/Year/Person $1,400 $1,500 $1,600 $1,700 $1,800 $1,900 $2,000 $2,100 $2,200 $2.300 $2,400 $2,500 $2,700 $2,000 $2,900 $3,000 $3,100 $3.200 $3.300 $4,000 57,00 $10,000 Everyone joins the poal ad pays the necessary premum in the first year.

The fixed cost related to the production of a product is $500,000 per year. Assume that the variable cost is $20,000 and the sell- ing price is $30,000 for each percentage point of annual output capacity (which equals sales demand). Thus, the maximum sales per year are $3,000,000 (at 100% of output capacity), and we have: (2.3) C; = $500,000 per year C, $20,000/1% of annual output capacity (Fixed cost) (Variable cost/unit) p = $30,000/1%' of annual output capacity (Selling price/unit) a. Determine the breakeven point for this situ- ation.
