A college placement office conducted a survey of 100 engineers who had graduated from Stanford University. For these engineers, the mean salary was computed to be $72,000 with a standard deviation of $22,000. The distribution of salary is roughly bell shaped.
a) What percentage of these engineers will earn between $55,040 and $88,960?
b) What is the probability that the average income of 4 engineers will be between $55,040 and $88,960?
c) What would be the 90thpercentile for the income of these individual engineers?
d) What would be the 90thpercentile for the average income of groups of 9 engineers?
e) Why is the 90thpercentile in (d) a smaller number than the value in (c)? Explain using the bell curve and what happens to it when you are looking at the average of a group.

Your Revolutionary Spirit:
Just like our brothers and sisters who came before us at this university, we too are revolutionaries. We are creating and learning –and struggling - in a new kind of community- an online learning community made for 21st-century living, working, sharing, learning, and at times, even laughing.
We may not be General George Washington’s chief cartographer at age 24, or a multi-talented lawyer, singer, and football player like Paul Robeson, or the first female Judge Advocate General of the US Army like LTG Flora D. Darpino, but we are still revolutionaries in our own right, each and every one of us, and we’re making progress every day in the pursuit of our dreams.
For this final and comprehensive journal reflection, discuss the ways as a student in this class "Organizational Behavior Class", you show your revolutionary spirit. What did you do, say, write, reflect on, and/or study in the text or with your group that helped grow your revolutionary spirit? Link your reflection in a comprehensive assessment of your growth experiences in this class.

Suppose the Burlington Donor Clinic of Canadian Blood Services has identified an individual blood drive as its cost object. It has established the following cost pools in developing an activity-based costing system:
Non-medical personnel costs. Salaries and wages of the office staff who organize blood drives and keep donor records.
Medical personnel costs. Salaries and wages of doctors and nurses who staff a blood drive.
Medical supplies. Cost of needles, bandages, and containers for donated blood.
Non-medical supplies. Costs of refreshments for blood donors and recordkeeping supplies.
Blood drives typically require 5 to 7 beds for blood donors. Each donation requires one container (in the medical supplies cost pool), one needle, and one set of bandages. Canadian Blood Services normally receives donated space from a community organization (such as a university or company) for each blood drive. Non-medical personnel costs would be most appropriately allocated using:
a. Number of blood drives organized
b. Number of blood donors
c. Hours available for blood donations
d. Dollar value of blood donated
