Many employees do not like having a position dealing with numbers. However, the video this week is a good illustration of the connection between numbers (dollars!) and the relationship between a small business and the town in which it resides. Marty Doepke states that Pop's is the largest source of tax revenue for the very small town of Arcadia, Oklahoma. Speak on the importance of the accounting and finance functions of business. Be creative in your responses, but address the importance of having managers who appreciate this function, even if they are not strictly accounting/finance types. Tie your answer back to at least one principle you learned from this week's readings.

Question)
Erika lives in a small town that is currently having a flu epidemic. Approximately 60% of the 5000 residents have the flu. If the flu test is 95% accurate (for both sensitivity and specificity), create a table to show the results if all 5000 residents are tested.
How many of the 5000 test results are true positive?

If Erika tests positive for having the flu, what is the probability she actually has the flu?
Leave your answer in decimal form and round it to 4 decimal places.

Party Town (PT) is holding a Halloween party and charging the guests an admission fee of $20 per
person. PT has rented a banquet hall for $500 and the hall will accommodate up to 100 people. PT has

1) Suppose that all five of the producers of readymix cement in the Denver area have entered into a cartel agreement, so that they are producing and pricing at the profit-maximizing monopoly level. a. How would a firm’s managers “cheat” on this agreement? b. Given that the four other competitors’ reactions are not instantaneous, can cheating be profitable?
2) In a small town, the managers of the three janitorial service firms have tacitly agreed to charge $150 per week for cleaning a standard-sized office. Each firm services 200 offices. The marginal cost and average total cost of cleaning an office are both $130. a. What is each firm’s economic profit? b. Suppose that a new office opens. Its owners tell the managers of one of the janitorial service firms that they will hire the janitorial service—but only if the price is $140 per week. Is this new contract profitable for this firm? If the janitorial service managers sign the contract, how would it affect the tacit collusion among the firms?

In Smalltown, Pennsylvania, the demand function for men’s haircuts is Qd=500−30p+0.08Y, where Qd is quantity demanded per month, p the price of a haircut, and Y the average monthly income in the town. The supply function for men’s haircuts is QS=100+20p−20w, where Qs is the quantity supplied and w the average hourly wage of barbers. If Y=5000 and w=10, use Excel to calculate quantity demanded and quantity supplied for p=5,10,15,20,25,30. Calculate the excess demand for each price (Note that an excess supply is negative excess demand.) Determine the equilibrium price and quantity. Use Excels charting tool to draw the demand and supply curves. Assume that Y increases to 6875 and and w increases to 15. Use Excel to recalculate quantity demanded for p=5,10,15,20,25,30. Determine the new equilibrium price and quantity. Use Excel to draw the new demand and supply curves. how can you explain the change in equilibrium?

Q2
A concrete strip footing with a width of B is founded at the depth of D, below the surface of a level site. The water table is at a depth of d below the base of footing. The soil at the site consists of clay having the following properties:
The unit weight = gt, the undrained cohesion = cu, the undrained friction angle = fu, the drained cohesion = c′ and the drained friction angle = f′
Use Hansen’s theory of bearing capacity to determine the allowable bearing pressure, which could be placed on the footing assuming a factor of safety of F for the following cases:
a) Immediately after loading the footing
b) Long time after loading the footing
Notes: The load is vertical. The ground and the base of footing are horizontal. D should be less than or equal to 2.5 B. The variable d can be positive (below the base), negative (above the base) or zero (at the base). Assume water level cannot be above the ground surface.

Georgia Movie Company has a capital structure with 50.00% debt and 50.00% equity. The cost of debt for the firm is 9.00%, while the cost of equity is 12.00%. The tax rate facing the firm is 35.00%. The firm is considering opening a new theater chain in a local college town. The project is expected to cost $12.00 million to initiate in year 0. Georgia Movie expects cash flows in the first year to be $2.62 million, and it also expects cash flows from the movie operation to increase by 4.00% each year going forward. The company wants to examine the project over a 11.00-year period.
What is the WACC for this project?
What is the NPV of this project? (express answer in millions, so 1,000,000 would be 1.00)

The department has been approached by the school superintendent about starting a Fire and Life Safety Education Program for all grades, K-12. As the fire inspector, this project will fall under your responsibility. The superintendent has asked that you submit your program plan in writing so that it can be reviewed and discussed at the next school board meeting. If your plan is approved, the program will begin the next school year. However, there are budget constraints, and several members of the school board feel like there are more important areas and programs that need funding.
You are to create a plan for a Fire and Life Safety Education Program. Given the circumstances with some of the school board members, your plan should begin with a summary of a comprehensive overview of general fire safety for occupied buildings. You should also demonstrate rationale for the general fire safety provisions as methods of fire protection. Let them know how important this program is through the short-term and long-term benefits to students and to the community as a whole. Also, be sure to include the following:
Your response must be at least two pages in length, in APA style. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying APA citations. The title and reference pages are not included in the page-count requirement.
