The distribution of wait times for a movie to load on Hulu is
normally distributed with a standard deviation of 4.4 seconds. What
changes the mean is how long it takes Windows to give the Hulu
player priority in the process queue. I want to know the average on
my old computer, so I randomly sample it 19 times, and I get an
average of 668 seconds. Find a 87% confidence interval for the
average time my old computer takes to play a movie on Hulu.

(video transcription needed for questions) >> No, definitely. If we had -- if when we started if we had many employees that were full-time, we definitely would not be the same today, or even possibly here. Name is Ryan Grey Smith, founder of Modern-Shed. I mean, kind of imagine, if you need to do a business organization and you want to bring it all in-house, you have to have the accounting position, you have to have the organizing position, the person that's going to answer the phones or the people that are going to make the things, and you have to have all of these positions, and you just can't do that when you start a company. It just absolutely doesn't make sense. We get busy one month. The next month, we weren't as busy, and this is the way business goes. It'll come and go like that. So really, the most logical way to start anything is to just find the people that can help you out and work out an arrangement. And so we have -- within the organization right now, we have 5, 6, 7 -- there's about 12 to 14 people, between, kind of manufacturing and the office and sales here in Seattle. Outside of Seattle we have 12 sales reps and 35 dealers across the states. >> One of the key things that attracted me about Modern-Shed was that I was coming from the real estate industry, which has absolutely been decimated throughout the country. The company that I used to be with in fact, did sales and marketing for multi, multi-million dollar projects. That industry is going to be asleep now for about 3 to 5 years. Modern-Shed has positioned itself so that we're essentially insulated from what's going on in the general marketplace. I'm Scott, and I handle Sales Marketing with Modern-Shed. It's very interesting, that window-wall, window-wall, window-wall. We kind of changed the siding. But you heard that conversation about the corrugated? >> Yes, yeah. >> Eric Johnson is our fabricator, and he's actually sent up to support not only Modern-Shed, but other companies that may have a panelization component. He actually comes from the panelizing world for home builders. Well, because that industry has really fallen off because of the economy, we become a solution for Eric, because interestingly enough, Modern-Shed has not been affected by the downturn. In fact, if anything our sales are increasing. So it works out really well with the fabrication being something that's third party, offsite, and we have no financial interest in it. The dealer network is really set up to take advantage of markets that we think we've got an initial logical fit with, and so the dealers are essentially folks that also represent other products. They just aren't directly competitive to Modern-Shed, so they're complementary. Now on a monthly basis we'll actually have conference calls with the reps and the dealers about either new product, new promotions, changes in pricing, new opportunities for them in terms of their marketing. So again, it's very, very lean and unstructured because all those folks are independent contractors.
Questions:
1) As Modern-Shed grows, what is likely to happen to its organizational design?
a) It is likely to continue growing with the same organizational design that it has now.
b) It is likely to become a matrix organization.
c) It is likely to become a virtual organization.
d) It is likely to become more functional.
2) Under what conditions is the current organizational structure of Modern-Shed most likely to be effective? Check all that apply.
-In times of crisis, when everyone needs to follow a single leader
-When following a differentiation strategy for the business
-When following a low-cost leadership strategy for the business
-When the economic environment is turbulent and uncertain
3) Scott, the sales and marketing manager, says that Modern-Shed is insulated from what is going on in the general marketplace. This is partly due to Modern-Shed’s structure. By using a ________ (virtual, functional or matrix) structure, Modern-Shed is able to:
a) Bring positions in-house so that work can be more closely monitored and controlled
b) Easily expand and contract the company without assuming increased financial risk
c) Create dual lines of authority throughout the organization that respond to marketplace changes
d) Manufacture standardized products that can be sold at lower prices

Problem 3: The IsSorted class [30’]
Description:
This Java program will create an integer array object with arbitrary elements, and judge whether this array is sorted (non-decreasing). For example, array1 {2,3,1,0} is not sorted, while array2 {5, 8,10,12,15} is sorted.
You may assume the array is non-empty.
Specifications:
In addition to the main method, you need to create another method
main Method
isSorted Method
The isSorted() method takes in an array of integers as a parameter. It checks whether all elements in this array are sorted (arranged in non- decreasing order) or not, and return true or false.
Output
Your output should look something like follows:
//Suppose the array is [5, 0, 2, 3, 8]
$java IsSorted
The array is not sorted.
//Suppose the array is [1, 1]
$java IsSorted
The array is sorted.
//Suppose the array is [2, 6, 10, 15, 20]
$java IsSorted
The array is sorted.
//Suppose the array is [7, 4, 3, 0]
$java IsSorted
The array is not sorted.

In this lab, you will modify the Student class you created in a previous lab. You will modify one new data member which will be a static integer data member. Call that data member count. You also add a static method to the Student class that will display the value of count with a message indicating what the value represents, meaning I do not want to just see a value printed to the screen.
Change main so that it calls this new method towards the end of the program. Call the method using the static syntax; do not use one of the instances of the Student class.
You will also need to change the Student constructor so that it increments the new data member you added, count. In your post explain why you get the value it displays.

When one company buys another company, it is not unusual that some workers are terminated. The severance benefits offered to the laid-off workers are often the subject of dispute. Suppose that the Laurier Company recently bought the Western Company and subsequently terminated 20 of Western’s employees. As part of the buyout agreement, it was promised that the severance packages offered to the former Western employees would be equivalent to those offered to Laurier employees who had been terminated in the past year. Thirty-six-year-old Bill Smith, a Western employee for the past 10 years, earning $32,000 per year, was one of those let go. His severance package included an offer of 5 weeks’ severance pay. Bill complained that this offer was less than that offered to Laurier’s employees when they were laid off, in contravention of the buyout agreement. A statistician was called in to settle the dispute. The statistician was told that severance is determined by three factors: age, length of service with the company, and pay. To determine how generous the severance package had been, a random sample of 50 Laurier ex-employees was taken. For each, the following variables were recorded:Number of weeks of severance pay,Age of employee,Number of years with the company,Annual pay (in thousands of dollars),

Calculation of individual costs and WACC - Dillon Labs has asked its financial manager to measure the cost of each specific type of capital as well as the weighted average cost of capital The weighted average cost is to be measured by using the following weights: 30% long term debt, 20% preferred stock, and 50% common stock equity.
Debt - the firm can sell for $1010 a 15-year, $1,000 par value bond paying annual interest at a 6.00% coupon rate. A flotation cost of 3.5% of the par value is required.
Preferred stock - 9.50% (annual dividend) preferred stock having a par value of $100 can be sold for $98. An additional fee of $6 per share must be paid to the underwriters.
Common stock - The firm's common stock is currently selling for $59.43 per share. The stock has paid a dividend that has gradually increased for many years, rising from $2.70 ten years ago to the $4.40 dividend payment D0, that the company just recently made. If the company wants to issue new new common stock, it will sell them $1.50 below the current market price to attract investors, and the company will pay $3.50 per share in flotation costs.
a. calculate the after-tax cost of debt.
b. calculate the cost of preferred stock.
c. calculate the cost of common stock (both retained earnings and new common stock).
d. calculate the WACC for Dillon Labs.
