You are installing ten ERP systems modules. • Budget - $100,000 ($10K per ERP Module) • Time – 10 weeks (1 ERP module installation per week) You want to check the project performance and at week 5: • 4 ERP modules are installed • $47,500 spent to date What is the schedule performance index (SPI)?

Your uncle is considering investing in a new company that will produce high quality stereo speakers. the sales price would be set at 1.5 times the variable cost per unit; the variable cost per unit is estimated to be $75.00; and fixed costs are estimated at $1,200,000. what sales volume would be required to break even, i.e., to have ebit = zero?

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?
