Discuss at least two business risks that your organization face as COVID-19 crisis continues. What measures your organization adopt or what mitigating activities you can recommend to lessen its impact?

A red car and a blue car are driving in the same direction on the interstate. The red car is travelling at 25 m/s, while the blue car is travelling at 35 m/s. The driver of the blue car is not paying attention and rear-ends the red car. The red car has a mass of 2,000 kg while the blue car is only 1,000 kg.

A Prior to the collision, what is the value of the center of mass kinetic energy?

B. In order for this collision to be isolated, what is the maximum amount of energy that can be converted to other forms during the collision? What percentage of the initial kinetic energy does this represent?

C. If the system loses 40% of its kinetic energy in the collision, is the system isolated? Why or why not?

D. Prior to the collision, how fast and in what direction would you need to be travelling in order for the system to appear to have zero momentum?

E. Regardless of your answer to part (c), assume now that the two vehicles form an isolated system. If they cars stick together, how fast will they be moving?

F. What minimum amount of kinetic energy must be conserved in order to conserve the momentum of the system?

Music Teachers, Inc., is an educational association for music teachers that has 19,900 members. The association operates from a central headquarters but has local membership chapters throughout the United States. Monthly meetings are held by the local chapters to discuss recent developments on topics of interest to music teachers. The association’s journal, Teachers’ Forum, is issued monthly with features about recent developments in the field. The association publishes books and reports and also sponsors professional courses that qualify for continuing professional education credit. The association’s statement of revenues and expenses for the current year is presented below.

      The board of directors of Music Teachers, Inc., has requested that a segmented income statement be prepared showing the contribution of each segment to the association. The association has four segments: Membership Division, Magazine Subscriptions Division, Books and Reports Division, and Continuing Education Division. Mike Doyle has been assigned responsibility for preparing the segmented income statement, and he has gathered the following data prior to its preparation.

a. Membership dues are $100 per year, of which $20 is considered to cover a one-year subscription to the association’s journal. Other benefits include membership in the association and chapter affiliation. The portion of the dues covering the magazine subscription ($20) should be assigned to the Magazine Subscription Division

b. One-year subscriptions to Teachers’ Forum were sold to nonmembers and libraries at $30 per subscription. A total of 3,300 of these subscriptions were sold last year. In addition to subscriptions, the magazine generated $111,000 in advertising revenues. The costs per magazine subscription were $9 for printing and paper and $4 for postage and shipping.

c. A total of 28,100 technical reports and professional texts were sold by the Books and Reports Division at an average unit selling price of $25. Average costs per publication were $4 for printing and paper and $2 for postage and shipping.

d. The association offers a variety of continuing education courses to both members and nonmembers. The one-day courses had a tuition cost of $75 each and were attended by 2,500 students. A total of 1,880 students took two-day courses at a tuition cost of $125 for each student. Outside instructors were paid to teach some courses.

e. Assume that the Occupancy cost could be avoided by eliminating a division. Salary costs and space occupied by division follow:

       Personnel costs are 25% of salaries in the separate divisions as well as for the corporate staff. The $288,000 in occupancy costs includes $56,000 in rental cost for a warehouse used by the Books and Reports Division for storage purposes.

f. Printing and paper costs other than for magazine subscriptions and for books and reports relate to the Continuing Education Division.

g. General and administrative expenses include costs relating to overall administration of the association as a whole. The company’s corporate staff does some mailing of materials for general administrative purposes.

       The expenses that can be traced or assigned to the corporate staff, as well as any other expenses that are not traceable to the segments, will be treated as common costs. It is not necessary to distinguish between variable and fixed costs.

Required:  

1. Prepare a contribution format segmented income statement for Music Teachers, Inc. This statement should show the segment margin for each division as well as results for the association as a whole.

4. Person and customer classes

Design a class named Person with properties for holding a person's name, address, and telephone number. Next, design a class named Customer, which is derived form the Person class. The Customer class should have a property for a customer number and a Boolean property indicating whether the customer wishes to be on a mailing list, Demonstrate an object of the Customer class in a simple application.

5. PreferredCustomer Class

A retail store has a preferred customer plan where customers can earn discounts on all their purchases. The amount of a customers discount is determined by the amount of the customers cummulative purchases in the store as follows:

- When a preferred customer spends $500, he or she gets a 5 percent discount on all future purchases.

- When a preferred customer spends $1,000, he or she gets a 6 percent discount on all future purchases.

- When a preferred customer spends $1,500, he or she gets a 7 percent discount on all future purchases.

- When a preferred customer spends $2,000, he or she gets a 10 percent discount on all future purchases.

Design a class named PreferredCustomer, which is derived from the Customer class you created in Exercise 4. The PreferredCustomer class should have properties for the amount of the customer's purchases and the customer's discount level. Demonstrate the class in a simple application.

Complete below for 100pts extra credit

• Use overloaded constructors and member initialization list
• Person will be an abstract class with a virtual function called CalcDiscount
• Override the discount method for a normal customer and for a preferred customer
  • A normal customer gets a 0% discount review #5 for a preferred customer
• Create one array of the defined Person object where you instantiate Customers and Preferred Customers in the array
• Implement and test your override of the discount method
• Remember your array must be of the Person type

Person[] people=new Person[2];

people[0]=new Customer(arguments here);

people[1]=new Preferredcustomer(arguments here);

people[0].calcdiscount();

people[1].calcdiscount();

Using a 685 nm wavelength laser, you form the diffraction pattern of a 0.119 mm wide slit on a screen. You measure on the screen that the 11th dark fringe is 9.47 cm away from the center of the central maximum. How far is the screen located from the slit?

You are considering an investment in either individual stocks or a portfolio of stocks. The two stocks you are researching, Stock A and Stock B, have the following historical returns:

1. Calculate the average rate of return for each stock during the 5-year period. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

   Stock A:   %

   Stock B:   %

2. Suppose you had held a portfolio consisting of 50% of Stock A and 50% of Stock B. What would have been the realized rate of return on the portfolio in each year? What would have been the average return on the portfolio during this period? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Negative values, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign.

   Year	Portfolio
   2014	%
   2015	%
   2016	%
   2017	%
   2018	%
   Average return	%

3. Calculate the standard deviation of returns for each stock and for the portfolio. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

   			Portfolio
   Std. Dev.	%	%	%

4. Suppose you are a risk-averse investor. Assuming Stocks A and B are your only choices, would you prefer to hold Stock A, Stock B, or the portfolio? Why?

   A risk-averse investor should choose -Select-Stock AStock BPortfolioItem 12 , since it offers -Select-lesshigherthe sameItem 13 expected return with -Select-lesshigherthe sameItem 14 risk.

Study 1 tested 921 students at UVA. The researchers asked people to check off how many of the following activities they liked (with a yes/no response). There were three general activities: walking, running, biking. There were three ocean-related activities: swimming, sailing, and kayaking. And there were three mountain-related activities: skiing, rock-climbing, mountain biking. Each person got one score for each category of activities. Each person also filled out a questionnaire called the “Big Five,” which measured their extroversion with 2 items, answered with a 5-point scale.

The reported correlation between extroversion and liking for the ocean was r = .18 (p < .01).

What does the correlation mean in this example? Is this relationship strong or weak?

Sketch a scatterplot of this correlation on a well-labeled graph.

What does p < 0.01 mean in this result?
