Waiting process means a non-value adding process and it is a cost driver.
Why Allen Solly offered only men's wear?
During 1990's most of the brands were men's brand only because of the Socio - cultural nature of the society at that time. Women were more conservative and even not many of them were working. Even the family values were such that other western outfits like jeans were confined to just teenage girls , which after marriage were supposed to wear salwaar kammez and sarees only. Since there was not much demand (latent demand) for Women western wear, Allen Solly and for that matter other brands too were purely men's brand only. But in 2002 Allen Solly entered the women's market when research showed that women then were buying men's trousers in the waist size of 26 and 28. Also, Globalization allowed various foreign companies to start offices in India where the work culture was more demanding and asked women an attire change. So there was a lot of scope and growth in women's market which led Allen Solly to enter Women's western wear market as well.

In 1964 the price of silver increased to the point where quarters contained much more than 25¢ worth of silver. Starting in 1965, quarters and dimes were made of a 3-layer "sandwich" consisting of a pure copper core with outer cladding of 25% nickel and 75% copper, for a total of about 92% copper, 8% nickel.
Note about half-dollars and dollars : From 1965 to 1969 half-dollars were made of 40% silver. They weren't made for circulation in 1970. In 1971 half dollars were converted to the same sandwich metal as dimes and quarters. Dollars were also made from copper-nickel until 2000, when the current gold-colored brass metal was used.

What would be the price list on a 9mm norinco 213?
Assuming it's in excellent condition, isn't refinished or modified, and has the original magazines with it.....
If it's a high capacity double stack model (holds more than 8 rds in mag) average price is $250-300. If it's the much more common single stack model with the 8rd magazines the average price is $130-170. I've seen them go for a little higher if they are in excellent or new condition with the box. I paid $200 for one new-in-box a few months ago. As always, there are nut-jobs asking crazy prices too, as I've seen one sell for $595 at a gun show (I pity the sap that bought it).

What are the materials for gravity die casting?
Gravity Die Casting is a manufacturing process that involves pouring molten material into a permanent mold in order to produce metal parts which are built to tight tolerances.
The molten materials can be Aluminum, Pewter (or other so called white or pot metals), Zinc or an alloy of Zinc mixed with an amount of copper and aluminum. Basically, any metals that have a lower melting point than steel can be used for Gravity Die Casting.
The permanent mold used in Gravity Die Casting is nearly always built of Steel. This Steel is usually hardened and polished to a high mirror like quality before it's put into use. The exception to Steel Molds are Graphite Molds which are used with less frequency due to the difficulty and health risks involved with machining Graphite.

How do you effectively motivate managers?
power money benefits Motivating managers is an art as well as a science. There have been books written on this subject, and appears to have turned into a life time study. However in my humble opinion, the just of it boils down to this. Whatever methodology is viewed as being the best practice for the organization, it must have 100% commitment by senior leadership. This means from the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) or president and his senior executives on down. Without their commitment and full support, any practice chosen usually amounts to nothing more than a desperate grab for straws by a few well intentioned individuals. Motivating managers in an appropriate and meaningful way - once again - demands full senior level focus.
For the realization of successful outcomes, the CEO and the department of Human Resources (HR) need to be tightly coupled. This is a problem that needs to be rectified in most institutions where the executive director of HR reports to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) rather than the CEO. CFOs are number crunchers, and few are really focused on the human concerns of employees. They look at the brick and mortar rather then the flesh and blood of the company, its employees. I am not saying this can not work (it depends on the personalities), but it does not appear to be the best practice. The better practice is where the Executive Director of HR reports directly to the CEO or president, has a seat at the table, and is a peer of the CFO.
Now the Human Resources individual can get down through the levels and find out want the employees need to do their job more effectively, and to find out what course of action to take to promote and develop passion for what their managers do and the benefit it brings to the organization, its employees, customer base, as well as themselves.
Finding good systems of approach to motivating managers is easy, there are hundreds of good methods out there. The hard part is in convincing senior leadership of its necessity. You have to sell them on the idea that promoting and developing motivation in managers adds business value.
