Biscuits and skill: Biscuit making in Britain and Germany This is taken from a study of biscuit manufacture in ten (10) British and eight (8) German firms. The type of biscuits produced varied greatly between the two (2) countries, largely owing to national tastes and demand. In Britain demand concentrated on relatively basic biscuits: either plan or with simple coating of chocolate, cream, or jam. In Germany, there was a much higher demand for decorated and multi-textured products (soft biscuits with jam filling in chocolate cases or layered variegated biscuits). Since this affected the type of biscuits each firm produced, it was difficult to measure and compare output and productivity between the British and German factories. An examination of crude output figures indicated that at the British factories employees were 25 percent more productive than German employees largely because British firms produced large quantities of simple low quality biscuits. However, when productivity…

SM5 Infinity Enterprises, a large organization with seven business units, recently prepared a BCG Growth-Share Matrix to evaluate whether it has a balanced portfolio of businesses. Upon analysis, its three large business units were identified as stars, two medium-size business units were identified as question marks, and one small business unit each was identified as a cash cow and as a dog. Which of the following is a conclusion you can draw upon evaluating the data? A The company needs to set up more business units that operate in high-growth markets. B The company is probably facing a shortage of funds to fuel its growth. C The company should hold onto the business unit identified as a dog in order to maintain a balanced portfolio of businesses. D The company is probably generating excess cash that can be used to start new business units

Plastomer, Inc. specializes in the manufacture of high-grade plastic film used to wrap food products. Film is rejected and scrapped for a variety of reasons (e.g., opacity, high carbon content, incorrect thickness or gauge, scratches, and so on). During the past month, management collected data on the types of rejects and the amount of scrap generated by each type. The results are given in the following table. Compute percent of total amount for each type of failure to complete the table. (Enter your responses as percents rounded to one decimal place.) Type of Failure Amount of Scrap (Ibs.)

4. A consultant has been working on measuring performances of the private hospitals locating in Sinop. Because of the privacy concerns, the names of the hospitals are not shared. The hospitals (H1, H2, and H3) will be evaluated systematically by means of DEA based on AHP method. In the proposed analysis, initially traditional AHP analysis is decided to be applied in order to calculate the weights of the hospitals. Then, the weights derived from AHP method will be directly used in the DEA analysis. Below, pairwise comparison matrices collected from decision maker, are demonstrated. Based on these, calculate the global weights of the hospitals and provide the ranking of the alternatives. (Note: The consistencies of the pairwise comparison matrices have already controlled.)
