/in /by

1. It has been said, ‘‘Total quality control is superior to 100% inspection because inspection, like any other process, has its own defect rate. Some substandard product, therefore, is always likely to slip through.’’ Do you agree or disagree? Discuss.

2. The pulse-echo ultrasonic technique can be used to determine the thickness of a part or structure. By accurately measuring the time it takes for a short ultrasonic pulse to travel through the thickness of a material, reflect from the back or inside surface, and return to the transducer, the distance can be calculated by

Where

d = thickness of the test piece

V = speed of sound in the material being tested

t = measured round-trip time

What are some alternative means of measuring thickness? Briefly discuss their relative pros and cons. Consider such features as geometric and material constraints, and the ability to measure from one side only.

1 Mrs Mary Atkins Age 66 Has Been Your Firm S Client For Five Years Since The Death 2280228

/in /by

1. Mrs. Mary Atkins, age 66, has been your firm’s client for five years, since the death of her husband, Dr. Charles Atkins. Dr. Atkins had built a successful newspaper business that he sold two years before his death to Merit Enterprises, a publishing and broadcasting conglomerate, in exchange for Merit common stock. The Atkinses have no children, and their wills provide that upon their deaths the remaining assets shall be used to create a fund for the benefit of Good Samaritan Hospital, to be called the Atkins Endowment Fund.

Good Samaritan is a 180-bed, not-for-profit hospital with an annual operating budget of $12.5 million. In the past, the hospital’s operating revenues have often been sufficient to meet operating expenses and occasionally even generate a small surplus. In recent years, however, rising costs and declining occupancy rates have caused Good Samaritan to run a deficit. The operating deficit has averaged $300,000 to $400,000 annually over the last several years. Existing endowment assets (that is, excluding the Atkins’s estate) of $7.5 million currently generate approximately $375,000 of annual income, up from less than $200,000 five years ago. This increased income has been the result of somewhat higher interest rates, as well as a shift in asset mix toward more bonds. To offset operating deficits, the Good Samaritan Board of Governors has determined that the endowment’s current income should be increased to approximately 6% of total assets (up from 5% currently). The hospital has not received any significant additions to its endowment assets in the past five years.

Identify and describe an appropriate set of investment objectives and constraints for the

Atkins Endowment Fund to be created after Mrs. Atkins’s death.
