/in /by

Purpose of Assignment

The purpose of the assignment is to develop students’ abilities in using datasets to apply the concepts of sampling distributions and confidence intervals to make management decisions.

Assignment Steps

Resources: Microsoft Excel®, The Payment Time Case Study, The Payment Time Case Data Set

Review the Payment Time Case Study and Data Set.

Develop a 700-word report including the following calculations and using the information to determine whether the new billing system has reduced the mean bill payment time:

  • Assuming the standard deviation of the payment times for all payments is 4.2 days, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate to determine whether the new billing system was effective. State the interpretation of 95% confidence interval and state whether or not the billing system was effective.
  • Using the 95% confidence interval, can we be 95% confident that µ ≤ 19.5 days?
  • Using the 99% confidence interval, can we be 99% confident that µ ≤ 19.5 days?
  • If the population mean payment time is 19.5 days, what is the probability of observing a sample mean payment time of 65 invoices less than or equal to 18.1077 days?

Price Waterhouse Coopers (PWC) is one of the leading organizations in the audit, tax and risk industry in terms of corporate governance (Raut, 2010). The company’s goal is to ensure that the organizational goals are in line with the shareholder interests. Some of the key corporate governance issues handled in PWC range from highly strategic topics like corporate strategy, IT oversight and innovation, board composition and risk oversight to more real-time topics like crisis management and shareholder activism.

The organization’s corporate strategy aims at achieving a continuous growth and also capturing new markets. The company also goes a mile further to ensure that they maintain a certain share of the market despite the ever-changing business environment and competition. All these are in line with the profit maximization principle of shareholders’ interest satisfaction. Shareholders are very much concerned about profit maximization and as a result, the organization equally aims at minimizing the operational costs.

Another way the organization is maintaining stakeholder interests is by a maintenance of an upward growth of innovation and use of IT to better services for their clients. The use of innovation to better the services offered to clients is a multi-level way of satisfying various stakeholders. For instance, the customers/clients are well served, this is also in line with the growth of market share through proper market targeting as well as profit maximization.

Again, the board is composed of skilled individuals who have understood the business of PWC for quite a long time. The board is selected in the most open and official way so there is no bias or racism or any other form of discrimination (Hart, 2015). This helps the organization to be well guided towards future business trends. The leadership is based on competitiveness and as a result, this has contributed to PWC’s success in the audit industry. Lastly, the issue of risk analysis using research and managerial experience in the organization has been an anchor to its growth. According to Williamson, O. E. (2017), this coupled with strong internal controls form a synergy which forms a strong foundation for the future.

computer-chips-question-

/in /by

A manufacturer of computer chips has a computer hardware company as its largest customer. The computer hardware company requires all of its chips to meet specifications of 1.2 cm. The vice-president of manufacturing, concerned about a possible loss of sales, assigns his production manager the task of ensuring that chips are produced to meet the specification of 1.2 cm.

Based on the production run from last month, a 95% confidence interval was computed for the mean length of a computer chip resulting in:
95% confidence interval: (0.9 cm, 1.1 cm)

  1. What are the elements that the production manager should consider in determining his company’s ability to produce chips that meet specifications?
  2. Do the chips produced meet the desired specifications?
  3. What reasons should the production manager provide to the vice-president to justify that the production team is meeting specifications?
  4. How will this decision impact the chip manufacturer’s sales and net profit?
