This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?

Ultravision inc. anticipates sales of $280,000 from january through april. materials will represent 50 percent of sales, and because of level production, material purchases will be equal for each month during the four months of january, february, march, and april. materials are paid for one month after the month purchased. materials purchased in december of last year were $24,000 (half of $48,000 in sales). labor costs for each of the four months are slightly different due to a provision in the labor contract in which bonuses are paid in february and april. the labor figures are: january $14,000 february 17,000 march 14,000 april 19,000 fixed overhead is $10,000 per month. prepare a schedule of cash payments for january through april. (assume the $280,000 of sales occur equally over the four months of january through april, i.e. monthly sales = $280,000 / 4.)

Acompany recently announced that it would be going public. the usual suspects, morgan stanley, jpmorgan chase, and goldman sachs will be the lead underwriters. the value of the company has been estimated to range from a low of $5billion to a high of $100billion, with $45billion being the most likely value. if there is a 20% chance that the price will be at the low end, a 10% chance that the price will be at the high end, and a 70% chance that the price will be in the middle, what value should the owner expect the company to price at?
