- Kruger Designs hired a consulting firm three months ago to redesign the information system that the architects use. The architects will be able to use state of- the-art computer-aided design (CAD) programs to help in designing the products. Further, they will be able to store these designs on a network server from which they and other architects may be able to call them back for future designs with similar components.

Here are some tips for using Excel: • Cell Reference: Allows you to refer to data from another cell in the worksheet. If you entered "=B5" into a blank cell, the formula would output the value from cell B5. Basic Math Functions: Allow you to use the basic math symbols to perform mathematical functions. You can use the following keys: + (plus sign to add), - (minus sign to subtract), * (asterisk sign to multiply), and / (forward slash to divide). For example, if you entered "=B4+B5" in a blank cell, the formula would add the values from those cells and output the result. ●arrow_forwardAn existing robot is used in a commercial material laboratory to handle ceramic samples in the hightemperature environment that is part of several test procedures. Due to changing customer needs, the robot will not meet future service requirements unless it is upgraded at a cost of $2,000. Because of this situation, a new advanced technology robot has been selected for potential replacement of the existing robot. The accompanying estimates have been developed from information provided by some current users of the new robot and data obtained from the manufacturer. The firm’s before-tax MARR is 25% per year. Based on this information,should the existing robot be replaced? Assume that a robot will be needed for an indefinite period.arrow_forward
