So with that, I could generate a random number using the Excel RAND function that I designated r2 between 0 and 1. If 0 < r2< 0.2 then it takes 1 day 0.2< r2< 0.65 then it takes about 2 days 0.65 < r2 < 0.90 then it takes about 3 days 0.9 < r2 < 1 then it takes about 4 days 2. In Excel, use a suitable method for simulating the interval between successive breakdowns, according to the continuous distribution shown. With the probability increasing as time goes forward, the probability distribution of the random variable varies between the times of 0 to 6 weeks. In order to find an approximate result, it can be completed by the function F (x) = x/18 for 0 < x < 6 Therefore, the distribution function is F (x) = x-square divided by 36 for 0 < x < 6 If we set this equal to another random number r1 that is between 0 and then R1 = x-square divided by 36 which results to x = 6√ r1 3.

If the value of x is postnatal age of 30 hours, what is the value for Yˆ or SBP for neonates 1,001–1,500 grams? Show your calculations. 7. Compare the SBP readings you found in Questions 5 and 6. Explain the difference in these two readings.
What are the rates with continuous compounding? 6-month: Rc = m x ln [ Rmm+1] = 2 x ln [0.04/2 +1] = 3.96% 12-month: Rc = m x ln [ Rmm+1] = 2 x ln [0.045/2 +1] = 4.45% 18-month: Rc = m x ln [ Rmm+1] = 2 x ln [0.0475/2 +1] = 4.69% 24-month: Rc = m x ln [ Rmm+1] = 2 x ln [0.0475/2 +1] = 4.69% b. What is the forward rate for the 6-month period beginning in 18-month? Maturity (months) | Rate (% per annum) | Forward Rate | 6 | 3.96 | | 12 | 4.45 | 4.94 | 18 | 4.69 | 5.17 | 24 | 4.94 | 5.69 | c. What is the value of FRA that promises to pay you 6% (compounded semi-annually) on a principal of $1 million for 6-month period starting in 18 months? K = 6% (compounded semi-annually) F = 5.69% (continuous compounding) => Rm = m x ( eRc/m – 1) =2 x ( e0.00569/2 – 1) = 5.77% So, the value of FRA = $1 million x (6% - 5.77%) x 0.5 x e-0.0494 * 2 = $ 1,041.812456 Exercise
Seasonal index is average monthly demand/level. Level is total demand/48 = 42400. Total forecast is 582,680 which is close to 591,490. Thus we can conclude that forecast follows yearly
Case 1: 4-1 Vershire Company 1. There are 6 steps in the budget process of Vershire Company which are: Step 1: Sales Budget is prepare in May which divided into plant, price, volume and product. In this step the Divisional General Manager will compile the sales budget which input is requested from the district sales managers and central market research staff. Step 2: In September, the Plant Manager is given sales budget which include gross profits, fixed expenses and pre-tax income. In this step plant manager also set budget standards for variable and fixed cost which from compilation of the industrial Engineering Department about the cost standards and cost reduction targets.
Quiz #6 Question 1 of 8 12.5 Points The relationship between the aggregate plan and Master Production Schedule (MPS) is: A. The aggregate plan balances the plant’s capacity with demand and the MPS translates this plan into numbers of specific products in time frames B. The aggregate plan is for 6 months and the MPS is for 3 months C. The aggregate plan uses simulation and the MPS uses regression analysis D. The MPS calculates labor time and the aggregate calculates labor and material E. MPS starts with macro units and the aggregate plan starts with micro Answer Key: A Question 2 of 8 12.5 Points Just-In-Time (JIT) production planning relies on: A. Close to zero defects from suppliers B. Low inventory with materials sent directly to work stations C. Long term, collaborative contracts with suppliers D. The ability to “pull” production rather than “push” it from the front end E. All of the above Answer Key: E Question 3 of 8 12.5 Points Which of the following is not a definition of SCM?
