MyAccountant is a recent start-up trying to cater to customers in search of accounting services who are intimidated by the idea of talking to an accountant or simply too lazy to go to an accountant’s office. Unlike traditional accounting firms, MyAccountant allows for extensive interaction between accountants and their customers via telephone and the internet. This process is used in the upfront part of the customer interaction, largely consisting of answering some basic customer questions prior to entering a formal relationship. In order to allow customers to interact with the firm’s accountants (in fact, the firm hires accountants who are graduates of the Leventhal School)esvoe44168424e824fd7bef431ec 75433072ada8c2a6ebec779fc65cbc46b8e 44a755eovse. From there, the incoming emails are distributed to the accountant who is currently "on call". Given the broad skills of Leventhal graduates, each accountant can respond to each incoming request. Emails arrive from 8am to 6pm at a rate of 8 emails per hour, with the inter-arrival times are exponentially distributed. At each moment in time, there is exactly one accountant "on call", i. e. sitting at his/her desk, waiting for incoming emails. It takes the accountant, on average, 6 minutes to write the response email, with a standard deviation of 7 minutes. a) How many emails will an accountant have received at the end of a 10-hour day

Imagine us is a startup that offers high definition 3d prenatal ultrasounds for high-end customers. the service process includes four activities that are conducted in the sequence described below. (the time required for each activity is shown in parentheses): activity 1: welcome a patient and explain the procedure. (20 minutes)activity 2: prep the patient (e.g., show them to the room, apply ultrasound gel). (17 minutes) (*your id number represents the amount of time needed to complete this task)activity 3: take images. (5 minutes)activity 4: discuss diagnostic with patient. (20 minutes)at each location there are employees (servers) s1, s2, and s3. the assignment of tasks to servers is the following: s1 does activities 1 and 2.s2 does activity 3.s3 does activity 4.a. what is the capacity of this process (in customers per hour)? b. suppose 3 patients arrive every hour on average. ignoring any “start of day” or “end of day” effects, what are the utilizations of all three servers (%)? c. suppose each activity can be done by any server and any server can do any set of activities. however, each activity is done by only one server. for example, a possible assignment includes: s1 does activity 1, s2 does activity 2, and s3 does activities 3 and 4. of course, the original assignment of servers to activities is also feasible. what is the maximum capacity of the process (in customers per hour)? d. now consider the capacity measures in (c) and (a), what is the percentage change? why can you improve capacity without using additional resources? (there is no free lunch, right? )note: for all hw assignments, show your process of getting the results. only providing the final answers is not acceptable and will get 0%. if necessary, use a separate sheet of paper to show your work.
