One is able to use Gin (G) and Vermouth (V) to produce martini. A regular martini is produced with 2 portions Gin for 1 portion Vermouth. A dry martini is produced with 5 portions Gin and 1 portion Vermouth. The prices of a regular martini (PM) and a dry martini (PD) are fixed. You have a given supply to both Gin (G) and Vermouth (V). what are the prices of Gin and Vermouth, i.e. WG and WV? You can think of these prices as analogs of the wages for labor and rental rate for capital. Hint WG and WV should be expressed as equations written in terms of PM and PD. Using the previous part, answer the following question: Suppose that the price of dry gin PD increases. Does this increase change wg and wv? If you did not solve the previous part of the problem, explain intuitively what should happen to wg and w. You observe that knowing PM and PD, you can solve for WG and WV in a system of two equations. Which theorem is this result the punchline of? Explain the intuition of this theorem in the broader context if international trade. Derive the production possibility frontier of martini, with QM, the quantity of regular martini on the y-axis and QD, the quantity of regular martini on the x-axis. e) For what range of prices you only produce/sell dry martini?
a) Draw the relative supply curve using the relevant axes. Label your plot as thoroughly as possible.

Arsenaux v. Arsenaux
Plaintiff wife sued for a separation from her husband on the grounds of abandonment. Alleging freedom from fault, she sought alimony, and additionally sought custody of a minor child and child support. The husband reconvened seeking a divorce on the grounds of adultery. In order to establish his claim, the husband sought to prove that his wife had become pregnant some two years following his vasectomy and had thereafter obtained an abortion. His effort was frustrated by the wife's successful assertion in the trial court that the medical records of her alleged abortion fell within the health care provider privilege for civil cases and her constitutional right to privacy.
The husband successfully appealed from the trial court's judgment in favor of the wife.' The Louisiana Supreme Court, in a four to three decision, reversed and held that the medical record in question is a communication under the explicit wording of the health care provider statute and, as such, should not be admitted. The court determined that the case did not fall within any of the statutory exceptions to the privilege. The court also based its decision upon a consideration of the wife's constitutional right to privacy.' The three dissenters argued that the wife had waived her privilege to have the evidence excluded by alleging freedom from fault.

(v) GHL purchased a factory site in Malaysia on 1 April 2019 with intention for industrial use. Land prices in the area had increased significantly in the years immediately prior to 31 March 2020. Nearby sites had been acquired and converted into residential use. It is felt that, should the GHL’s |
|
site also be converted into residential use, the factory site would have a market value of $27 mil- lion. $1.5 million of costs are estimated to be required to demolish the factory and to obtain plan- ning permission for the conversion. GHL was not intending to convert the site at 1 April 2019 and had not sought planning permission at that date. The current replacement cost and carrying amount of the factory site are correctly calculated as $25.1 million and $28 million respectively as at 31 March 2020 before revaluation. Fanny did not reflect the change in fair value of the factory site even the factory site is measured using the revaluation model under HKAS 16. |
Discuss the approach described in HKFRS 13 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ to measure the non- financial asset.

V. Rahr and Sons is a Fort Worth brewery founded by Fritz Rahr, a Neeley undergraduate and MBA. Currently the company makes Rahr Blonde Lager, Rahr’s Red, and Ugly Pug brews. They are considering a new beer, Frog Princess, with which to celebrate their ties to TCU. The project includes an initial outlay of $750,000 for the purchase of capital equipment that will be depreciated straight line to zero over six years.
Sales are expected to be $400,000 in years 1-3 and $600,000 in years 4-6. Production costs during years 1-6 are as follows: fixed costs (not including depreciation) are expected to be $150,000 per year; variable costs per year will be 40% of sales. The project will require an initial investment in NWC of 200,000 in year 0.
Beyond year six, the company expects that sales and unlevered net income in year seven will be 4% higher than that in year 6, and will continue growing at 4% per year infinitely. Additionally, in year 7 and beyond, new capital expenditures net of depreciation, and increases in NWC, combined, will be 6% of sales. Assume the marginal tax rate is 21%. The appropriate discount rate is 8%.
What is the NPV of the project? What is the IRR? Should the project be undertaken?
I've asked this question three times now and gotten three different answers so I want to see if this will confirm the right one. Thanks

Write a program in "RISC-V" assembly to convert an ASCII string containing a positive or negative integer decimal string to an integer. ‘+’ and ‘-’ will appear optionally. And once they appear, they will only appear once in the first byte. If a non-digit character appears in the string, your program should stop and return -1.

4. A car of mass m is traveling with constant speed v around a circular banked road of radius R, see the
side view and the free-body diagram.
a) Apply Newton’s 2nd law to the car, i.e. write equations for the
centripetal, angular, and vertical components of the net
force.
b) Determine the angle θ at which the road should be banked so that
no static friction is required to drive the car.
Now, include the static friction force FS in the free-body diagram
and Newton’s equations.
c) Find the maximum speed vmax at which the car can travel around
without slipping. Assume the coefficient of maximum static friction
is μs.
In the end, find the expressions for the contact force with which
the ground is acting on the car, i.e.:
d) The magnitude of the normal force FN and
e) The magnitude of the static friction FS, in terms of the given
quantities m, v, R, g, and θ.
