Solution #1
Size = 35200 LOC =35.2KLOC (thousand lines of cod)
1: Effort per month
Formula:
E=3.2*(size in KLOC)^1.05
E= 3.2*(35.2)^1.05
=3.2*(42.1)
=135
2: Time per month
Formula:
T= 2.5*(effort)^.38
=2.5*(135)^.38
=2.5*6.45
=16.1
3: No of people required
Formula:
Total no of people needed= effort/ total time to develop
=135/16.1
=8.39
Solution #2
Size = 12000 LOC therefore 12KLOC
1: effort per month
Formula:
E=EAF*3.2*(KLOC)^1.05
E=1.0*3.2*(12)^1.05
=1.0*3.2*(13.6)
=1.0*43.5
=43.5
2: time to develop it
Formula:
2.5*(effort)^.38
2.5*(43.5)^.38
=2.5*4.19
=10.5
3: no of people required
Formula:
Total no of people needed= effort/ total time to develop
=43.5/10.5
=4.14

According to my point of view oral communications is better than written form of communication, because oral communication can be more personal than written communication.
It saves time, this is true in situation where split second decisions have to be made in the workspace, and the authorities may just give an oral communication
Can be recorded, due to various advantages in the electronic and communication devices, an oral communication can be recorded either as a voice message or even as a video recording
It leads to face to face, can be done on the spot and does not need writing skills.
(A)
Market clearing price condition
Quantity demanded = Quantity supplied
1600-125p = 440+165p
1600-440 = 165p+125p
1160 = 290p
P = 1160/290
Now: P = 4
Now putting values in the quantity demanded side or supply side
we are putting values in the quantity demanded side
Qd = 1600-125p
= 1600-125(4)
Qd = 1100
Part (b) P = 5.50
Then
Qd Qs
= 1600-125p = 440+165
= 1600-125(5.50) = 440+165(5.50)
Qd = 912. 5 Qs = 1347.5
Part (c) Now
Excess supply = Qd –Qs
= 912 .5 -1345.7
= -435
(Q =435) This quantity will Government buy
Part (B) P = 70$ , MC = 50
P =MC/1+ (1/Ed)
Elasticity of demanded is equal to Marginal Cost, Marginal cost is equal to price
So are all equal on equilibriums point
Ed = MC = P
We find “Ed”
MC = 50 , P =70
Ed = MC -
Question:
Do you think that Oral Communication is more effective than Written Communication?" Discuss.
Answer:
Oral communication can be significantly more effective in expressing meaning to an audience. This distinction between precision and effectiveness is due to the extensive repertoire of signals available to the speaker: gestures, intonation, inflection, volume, pitch, pauses, movement, visual cues such as appearance, and a whole host of other ways to communicate meaning. A speaker has significantly more control over what the listener will hear than the writer has over what the reader will read. For these techniques to be effective, however, the speaker needs to make sure that he or she has the audience's attention--audiences do not have the luxury of re-reading the

Mr. Ali is a vehicle manufacturer, he buys tires from a tire manufacturer and has to bear extra cost. But if he produces his own tires, he can reduce costs and get improved quality. Being a manager, which integrative strategy would you recommend and why?
Solutions:
As a manager of the firm I shall adopt Backward Integration policy since the cost of buying tires from the market is too high. This would give the firm a competitive edge by reducing cost and improving quality. by VUsolutions VU Solutions
Solution:
At eq. demand =supply
i.e.1600-125p = 440+165p
this gives p = 4 in 2007
b) Quantity demanded equation will change due to decrease in demand of exports but not due to policy of govt.
eq. of quantity supplied will not be affected.
At p=5.5 q supplied=1347.5
we can’t find q demanded because we don't know that what is the shift in demand the question is not clear. I have solved this question assuming that given demand function is inclusive of exports.
Ans 2. e= p / (marginal cost - p) = 70 /50-70 =-7/2

Communication
“Any act by which one person gives to or receives from another person information about that person’s needs, desires, perceptions, knowledge, or affective states. Communication may be intentional or unintentional, it may involve conventional or unconventional signals, may take linguistic or non-linguistic forms, and may occur through spoken or other modes.”
Or in simple words;
Communication is the exchange of ideas, opinions and information through written or spoken words, symbols or actions.
Communication is a dialogue, not a monologue. In fact, communication is more concerned with a dual listening process. For communication to be effective, the message must mean the same thing to both the sender and the receiver.
Business Communication
Business Communication is any communication used to promote a product, service, or
1. Acid Test Ratio/Quick ratio = Current Assets – ( Inventory + Prepayments) / Current
Liabilities
= 36,279,168 – (1,667,425 + 267,422)/ 33,455,815
Acid test Ratio = 1.0345
2. Sales to working Capital = Net Sales / Working Capital
Net sales = 76,642,399
Working capital = current assets – current liabilities = 36,279,168 – 33,455,812 = 2,823,356
= 76,642,399 / 2,823,356
Sales to working Capital = 27.145 / 100 = 0.2714 %
