1)You purchase an annuity investment that pays you a lump sum amount of $289,284 at the end of the term. You must make $20,000 quarterly payments until the end of the term. If you earn an interest rate of 2%, how many of these quarterly payments must you make?

2) A bank lends money to a firm on 01/01/2010. According to the lending agreement, the bank will receive the following payments:

06/30/2010 - $2,300,000

12/31/2010 - $1,300,000

06/30/2011 - $5,700,000

12/31/2011 - $3,400,000

06/30/2012 - $360,000

12/31/2012 - $560,000

If the annual interest rate on the loan is 3.80%, how much did the firm borrow?

1. What do the liquidity ratios – Current, Quick, and Cash-to-Sales – reveal about JCP’s financial position? Given that:

   Liquidity ratios – Current, Quick, and Cash-to-Sales ---

   Current Ratio: Current Assets/Current Liabilities-

   2012: 3,683/2,568= 1.43

   2011: 5,081/2,756= 1.84

   2010: 6,370/2,647= 2.40

   Quick Ratio: (Current Assets-Inventory)/Current Liability

   2012: (3,683-2,341)/2,548= 0.52

   2011: (5,081-2,916)/2,756= 0.78

   2010: (6,370-3,213)/2,647= 1.19

   Cash To Sales Ratio: Cash balance at the end of the period/Sales

   2012: 930/12,985= 0.05

   2011: 1,507/17,260= 0.08

   2010: 2,622/17,759= 0.14

Choose the correct statements from the following list. (Give ALL correct answers, i.e., B, AC, BCD...)

A) The critical density is the density needed to cause the Big Bang.

B) Assuming no dark energy, if the matter density of the universe is greater than critical, the universe is will eventually recollapse in a big crunch.

C) The horizon problem in cosmology is that regions of the universe that should not have ever had thermal contact with one another have the same temperature.

D) Assuming no dark energy, if the matter density of the universe is less than critical, the universe is closed.

E) A major difference between dark matter and dark energy is that one causes the universe's expansion to slow down, the other to make it expand faster.

F) Observations show us that the geometry of our universe must be very open

G) The inflationary model of the universe solves both the flatness and the horizon problems.

5. List the different types of PVC's.

Problem 3: A capacitor of capacitance C = 2 μF has been charged so that the potential difference between its plates is V0 = 85 V. The capacitor is then connected to a resistor of resistance R = 5.5 kΩ. The switch S is closed, and the capacitor begins to discharge. C = 2 μF V0 = 85 V R = 5.5 kΩ Calculate the time constant τ of the circuit in seconds. Calculate the charge Q0 on the capacitor before the switch is closed, in coulombs. Calculate the current I0 immediately after the switch is closed, in amperes. Calculate the potential difference VC in volts between the capacitor plates at time t = 5.0 ms after the switch is closed. Calculate the time T in s after which the charge on the capacitor has decreased to one fourth its maximum value.

3. Open Roof or Closed Roof? In a recent World Series, the Houston Astros wanted to close the roof on their domed stadium so that fans could make noise and give the team an advantage at home. However, the Astros were ordered to keep the roof open unless weather conditions justified closing it. But does the closed roof really help the Astros? The table below shows the results from home games during the season leading up to the World Series. Use a 0.05 significance level to conduct a Chi-Square Test for Association. Is there sufficient evidence to show that there is a relationship between wins and the open/closed status of the roof?
