An N-Channel device has K’n = 50 µA / V^2, Vt = 0.8 V and W/L = 20. The device is operating as a switch for small Vds, utilizing a control voltage Vgs in the range 0 V to 5 V. Find the switch closures resistance, Rds and closure voltage, Vds obtained when Vgs = 5 V and Id = 1 ma. Recalling that Up (Miu)= 0.4 µ(n). What must W/L be for a p-channel device that provides the same performance as the n-channel device in this application?

  1. Collins is currently teaching computer age philosophy at MIT, making $85,000 per year. He is considering leaving his job to open up a restaurant in Santa Fe. He estimates that he will need to spend $200,000 per year on space and supplies and $100,000 per year on wages for his staff. The restaurant will earn $340,000 per year in revenue.

  1. Assuming his estimates are accurate, what will Collins’ accounting profit be each year?

  1. Assuming his estimates are accurate, what will Collins’ economic profit be each year?

  1. Explain, beyond just reciting how it is calculated, what economic profit means, and why economists might believe it is a better estimate for the profitability of an economic decision.

Directions: You are to craft a persuasive speech for the following prompt: It is Christmastime, and Santa Claus has placed you on his VERY NAUGHTY list. However, instead of handing you lumps of coal, he has turned this list over to his old friend Krampus. You are given one opportunity to convince Krampus that you are in fact NICE and that he should, as a result, not drag you off in his basket and beat you with switches and chains. N.B.: While there is no set “length” for this speech script, you must be certain that you make a complete and convincingargument. (Translation: I expect an Introduction, a Body with three main points, and a Conclusion that would be as developed as one should be for any speech made in this class).
