The cruise boat can carry up to 45 passengers. The company wants to know the minimum number of passengers needed per cruise to c

over its costs. This number is called the break-even point. A formula for calculating the break-even point is: Break-even point = (fixed costs) ÷ (income per passenger – costs per passenger) The company collects the following data:
Fixed cost (per cruise)
CREW SALARY $350
FUEL $120
OVERHEADS $170

Varible costs( per passenger)
REFRESHMENTS $6.50
REFUND $3.64

SALES INCOME (PER PASSENGER)
AVERAGE TICKET INCOME $36.40

Based on this data, what is the minimum number of passengers needed per cruise, so that the cruise company can be sure it will make a profit?

The average years of employment is 14

with 73% having worked for at least 10 years.

To find the mean, add up the years of service and divide by the number of employees. The total years worked is 417, so the formula yields:

average years worked = 417/30 = 13.9, rounded to approximately 14 years.

To determine the percentage of employees with ten or more years, count those with 10 or more years and divide by the total employee count, converting the result into a percentage:

(10 years or over)/(total number) = 22/30 = 0.73 repeating, which approximates to 73%.

Using a spreadsheet tool can make this calculation simpler, as it can quickly compute the average and help tally how many employees have worked for 10 years or more.

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

P(functioning product) =.99*.99*.96*.96 =.0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the product to function, all four probabilities must succeed, hence:

P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

where:

P(Part-1) = 0.96

P(Part-2) = 0.96

P(Part-3) = 0.99

P(Part-4) = 0.99

Since each part is independent, we apply the formula P(A∩B) = P(A)*P(B)

P (Functioning Product) = P(Part-1)*P(Part-2)*P(Part-3)*P(Part-4)

P (Functioning Product) = 0.96*0.96*0.96*0.99*0.99

P(Functioning Product) = 0.903
