The company has two buildings for assembling products at its Taiwan site - one for cameras and one for drones (the drone assembly process also includes assembly of an action camera model having features and specifications suitable for use in camera- equipped drones). No camera models or drone models are assembled in advance, warehoused in company facilities and then used to fill incoming orders. Your company maintains regional facilities in Milan, Italy; Singapore; Sao Paulo, Brazil; and Dallas, Texas to handle the company's marketing efforts in each of the world's principal geographic regions, to support the merchandising efforts of area retailers who stock the company's brand of action-capture cameras and UAV drones, and to process camera/drone warranty claims including making needed repairs) originating in their - Answer-The company makes the majority of the needed camera components at facilities close to its Taiwan assembly plant; newly-produced camera components are transferred by truck on a just-in-time basis to the company's camera assembly facilities where the company operates a 250-person assembly line capable of turning out 3,250 cameras per hour. There is ample space at the camera assembly facility to add two more 250-person assembly lines should they be needed later to fill incoming buyer orders. Worldwide unit sales of wearable, miniature action-capture cameras are reliably projected to grow: A. 6-8% annually for Years 6-10 and then to grow at a slower 4-6% annual rate during the Years 11-15. B. At rates that can range from as little as 5% annually to as high as 15% annually C. About 10% annually through Year 15 D. To grow 8-10% annually during Years 6-10 and then to grow at a slower 6-8% annual rate during the following five years (Years 11-15) 10% annually for Years 6-10, and then slow gradually to 5% annually during Years 11- 15. -Answer-A. 6-8% annually for Years 6-10 and then to grow at a slower 4-6% annual rate during the Years 11-15. Which of the following is NOT one of the benefits of current-year and cumulative expenditures for camera/drone product R&D? A. Reducing total annual compensation costs for PATs because such spending, once it reaches $25 million annually and a cumulative total of $100 million, allows the size of PATs to be reduced from 4 persons to 2 persons B. Increasing the productivity of PATs in assembling camera/drone models (because of easier to assemble product designs); the size of this benefit occurs immediately and varies according to the current and cumulative amounts spent C. Boosting a company's P/Q ratings (the size of this benefit varies with the current and cumulative amounts spent and shows up in the P/Q ratings at the beginning of the following year) D.
