Which of the following is a true statement about learning curves? [multiple answers may apply]a. if a worker following a 60% learning curve required 18.32 seconds to complete the 10th unit, that worker should require approximately 10.99 seconds to complete the 40th unit. b. a main source of organizational learning stems from individual learning. c. if a worker following a 95% learning curve required 84.33 seconds to complete the 10th unit, that worker should require approximately 76.11 seconds to complete the 40th unit. d. learning curves may also play a synergistic role with economies of scale in reducing costs and improving efficiency. e. as discussed in class, allowing workers to redesign their tasks and suggest process improvements can be beneficial for both individual learning and organizational improvement. f. from our notes, a major managerial consideration is that we should work harder, not smarter. g. a worker operating on a 90% learning curve will be slower than a worker operating on an 80% learning curve. h. the point at which the economy of scale curve and the learning curve intersect is called the capacitated optimum. i. an assumption of learning curves is that the time required to complete a unit will decrease at a increasing rate as the cumulative number of units completed increases.

Shrieves casting company is considering adding a new line to its product mix, and the capital budgeting analysis is being conducted by sidney johnson, a recently graduated mba. the production line would be set up in unused space in the main plant. the machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional $30,000 to install the equipment. the machinery has an economic life of 4 years, and shrieves has obtained a special tax ruling that places the equipment in the macrs 3-year class. the machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of use. the new line would generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding depreciation. each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. the sales price and cost are both expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation. further, to handle the new line, the firm’s net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales revenues. the firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of capital, which is the risk-adjusted cost of capital for an average project (r), is 10%. define “incremental cash flow.” (1) should you subtract interest expense or dividends when calculating project cash flow?

In microeconomics, the point at which supply and demand meet is called the blank price

Rosie and her brother michael decided recently to purchase an rv together. they both want to use the rv to take their families camping. the price of the rv was $10,000. since michael expects to use the rv 60% of the time and rosie 40% of the time, michael contributed $6,000 and rosie contributed $4,000. their ownership percentage equals their contribution percentage. which type of property titling should they use to reflect their ownership interest?
