1) A slowdown in the U.S economic growth will

A) boost $ value because inflation fears will be calmed. B) boost $ value because the federal reserve will expand money supply. C) lower $ value because the U.S will be a less attractive place to invest in. D) lower $ value because intrest rate will rise

2) In 1995 ¥ went from $0.0125 to $0.0095238. By how much did $ appreciate against ¥?

3) Suppose that the Brazilian real devalues by 40% against the dollar. By how much will the dollar appreciate against the real?

4) Suppose the spot direct quotes for the pound sterling in New York is $1.3981. What is the direct quote for the dollar in London?

5) If the Euro devalued by 17% against the U.S dollar, this is equivalent to revaluation of the dollar against Euro by?

This question is based on the general equilibrium analysis.

Suppose the world consists of two large countries - the U.S. and Mexico - which trade with one another. Both countries produce and consume two goods: cars (C) and textiles (T). The U.S. has a comparative advantage in the production of cars. Initially, the U.S. has no tariffs, but Mexico has a 10% tariff on its imports. In 1995, NAFTA (a free trade agreement) is implemented, and Mexico removes its tariff. What are the implications of NAFTA for the U.S.? First explain what happens to production and consumption of cars and textiles in the U.S. Support your answer with a PPF graph that shows the U.S. equilibrium both before and after the implementation of NAFTA (plot C on the x-axis). Second, could the U.S. economy be hurt by NAFTA? Explain.

I was completing an ER practicum as a student nurse when I was asked to evaluate a 6-year-old boy who was brought to the ER by his mother. The boy’s mother explained that her son had been stung by a bee on his right index finger a few days prior. She had removed the stinger and washed the area following the incident. Despite her first-aid measures, that morning her son had awoken complaining of pain in the affected area. Upon examining the site, the mother noticed that the area was visibly more reddened than the day before, and the swelling had spread to involve the entire hand and wrist.

The child’s vital signs were normal except for a mild elevation in temperature (37.7°C, or 99.9°F). The affected hand was noticeably swollen, reddened, and warm to the touch. The child cradled his hand and did not use it. When asked, he stated that it “hurt” when he tried to move his fingers. After my examination, the physician on duty examined the boy’s hand and diagnosed him with cellulitis. He prescribed oral antibiotics and instructed the boy’s mother to bring the boy back to the ER if his symptoms worsened.

The patient’s encounter with a bee resulted in a breach of the first line of defense—the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body and protects the body from the environment. Although few pathogens can penetrate this barrier, bacteria can gain entry through breaks in the skin. In this case, a seemingly innocuous bee sting provided a portal of entry for bacterial invasion.

The symptoms experienced by the patient are typical of the inflammatory response: rubor (redness), calor (warmth), tumor (swelling, or edema), and dolor (pain). The patient also had some loss of function related to discomfort. The symptoms experienced by the patient are evidence that immune components have been attracted to the injury site, and tissue repair and the destruction of microbes are underway.

Research and Review

Please locate this article using an online search engine: Derlet, R.W. and Richards, J.R. (2003). Cellulitis from insect bites: A case series. Cal J Emerg Med 4(2): 27-30. Read the article thoroughly and then answer the questions, linking the introductory case file, the chapter content, and this article.

1. Describe cellulitis, and explain why it is often misdiagnosed as an allergic reaction in the case of insect bites.

2. Summarize the signs and symptoms that occurred after the insect bites in these cases, including their timing.

3. What was the treatment in all seven of these cases, and what does that tell you about the likely causative agents?

4. What microorganisms are usually responsible for most cases of cellulitis? Conducting further research, describe these organisms, including other infections that they can cause?

5. Compare the cases in this article to the boy in the introductory case file.

Tony and Suzie are ready to expand Great Adventures even further in 2022. Tony believes that many groups in the community (for example, Boy Scouts, church groups, civic groups, and local businesses) would like to hold one-day outings for their members. Groups would engage in outdoor activities such as rock climbing, fishing, capture the flag, paintball, treasure hunts, scavenger hunts, nature hikes, and so on. The purpose of these one-day events would be for each member of the group to learn the importance of TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More).

Tony knows that most people are not familiar with these types of activities, so to encourage business he allows groups to participate in the event before paying. He offers a 5% quick-payment discount to those that pay within 10 days after the event. He also guarantees that at least eight hours of outdoor activities will be provided or the customer will receive a 20% discount. For the first six months of the year, the following activities occur for TEAM operations.

2. Consider the following information as of June 30, 2022.

1. Suzie estimates uncollectible accounts to be 10% of accounts receivable (which does not include the $6,000 note receivable from Myers Manufacturing). Prepare the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

The goal is to count the number of common elements between two sets. Download the following data sets, and add them to your project:

• girlNames2016.txt
• boyNames2016.txt

These files contain lists of the 1,000 most popular boy and girl names in the US for 2016, as compiled by the Social Security Administration. Each line of the file consists of a first name, and the number of registered births that year using that name.

Your task is to determine which names appeared on BOTH the boys list and girls list. We want a list of the most popular baby names that could be used for either a girl or a boy (ex. Alex or Drew).

Create a Driver class, and in the main method, use the following algorithm:

1. Read each girl name as a String, ignoring the number of namings, and add it to a set girlNames.
2. Read each boy name as a String, ignoring the number of namings, and add it to a set boyNames.
3. Calculate the intersection of these sets and place the result into a new set unisexNames.
   1. Build this set by iterating through one set, and checking whether the other set contains that element. If so, this element belongs to both sets and should be added to unisexNames.
4. Print all elements in unisexNames.

Pharmaceutical companies have vociferously fought for the right to advertise and market their products (medications and procedures) directly to the public via mass media to make know the availability to as many persons as possible. This is done primarily under the constitutional right of free speech and freedom of the press. Medical associates have routinely opposed this insisting that the discussion of potential medications directly to the patient absent filtering by the physician leads to patients demanding medication that are not appropriate in their case. Which should be the case and why? Should medication ads be allowed to be mass marketed?

Many investors believe that the stock market’s directional change in January signals the market’s direction for the remainder of the year. This so-called “January Indicator” is frequently cited in the popular press. But is this indicator valid? The accompanying table summarized the relevant changes in the Dow Jones Industrial Average for the period December 31^st, 1927 to January 31^st, 1981. Based on your analysis, do the data appear to confirm the validity of the January indicator?

please can you explain the answers or give a little bit of details

With respect to the FCPA materials, please submit a response that

identifies the Department of Justice FCPA enforcement action you've read about by date and by Docket No (for example, Docket No: 14-CR-240-DLC)

identifies the charged parties

briefly summarizes the issues involved (NOTE: this information will be most easily obtained from the press release that the Department of Justice released in connection with the indictment) and

briefly states whether you think the party against whom the enforcement action has been taken was treated appropriately (assuming the facts cited are correct).
