Read Eva’s story and answer the questions.

Eva, a single woman without children, is excited to know that her best friend, Anna, has given birth a baby boy recently. Anna invites Eva to attend the 100th Day Birth Celebration Party for her baby boy, which is in this evening. Since Eva won’t have any time between work and the party in the evening, she must go today during her lunch break to buy a special baby gift for Anna. After searching for online information in the morning, Eva decides to purchase an electric baby food blender for Anna. She calls several friends for the latest information about alternative brands of the food blender immediately. Eva is not concerned about where she buys it as long as she can purchase a safe electric baby food blender from a physical retail store during the lunch break. Lastly, Eva goes shopping with her sister, a mother of two children, in her lunch hour. She asks her sister to come up with a final decision on the brand and model of the electric baby food blender for Anna. To save time for buying a baby gift in the lunch hour, Eva stops by a small sandwich shop conveniently located at the lobby of her office building. She never considers alternative food offerings by the shop but quickly orders her favourite Honey Ham sandwich for lunch.

The purchase situation will affect consumer purchase decision process. What are the FOURof the situational influences that are described in Eva’s purchase decision process for the baby gift? Which ONE of the situational influences is NOT described in Eva’s purchase decision process? Briefly explain each of the situational influences in one or two sentences.

I need to figure out what questions could be asked from these scenarios.


- A snowboarder comes off of a ramp at an angle of theta above the horizontal, with a speed of v. The end of the ramp is a height h above the ground. Neglect friction and air resistance.


- A boy is standing on a ramp that is inclined at an angle theta above the ground. He is not slipping due to a static frictional force of f_s.

- A boy tries to toss a ball of mass m into his toy wagon, which is initially at rest. The ball hits the wagon at a velocity of v, at an angle theta below due east. Instead of staying in the wagon, the ball bounces out of the wagon with a velocity of v_2, at an angle theta_2 above due east. After being hit by the ball, the wagon has a velocity of v_3, due east. Neglect friction.


- A box that is of length l and height h is sitting on a small bench. The combined center of gravity of the box and bench is located a distance d to the right of the left bench support. The box and bench have a combined mass of M.


- A vertical frictionless spring with a spring constant of k is mounted unstrained on the floor. An object of mass m is dropped onto the spring from directly above, compressing the spring by a distance y. Ignore air resistance.


- A fluid of a given density is flowing through a tube that has a single entry and a single exit point. The second half of the tube has a greater diameter than the first half.


- Object 1 has a temperature of T and is placed in thermal contact with Object 2, which has an initial temperature of T_2. Object 2 is twice as massive as Object 1. The two objects eventually reach a thermal equilibrium at a temperature of T_3.


- n moles of a monatomic ideal gas expands adiabatically, and its temperature decreases from T_1 to T_2.

. Investigate the Paleo, Keto, Mediterranean, and Adkins diets.

What are the similarities and differences?

What are the pros and cons?

Are they for everyone?

You will need to do some searching on the Internet, talk to nutrition or chef who specializes in these diets, or find a book in the library. You can start here:

Paleo Keto Atkins Mediterranean But you will need to look in other places to understand the pros and cons.

2. Investigate ancient grains and Pulses.

Why are people turning to these foods? What connection do these have to intestinal conditions and the immune system?

3. Investigate GMO (Genetically Modified Foods) What are they, Why do we have them, are they good or bad?

Start with the WHO site but go deeper to see the pros and cons. This is a very controversial topic. 4. Why are fats now ok?

Which ones? Choose Healthy Fats 5. Make a graphic depicting healthy fats and prepare a case for why these are healthy even though not too many years ago we were told they were bad for us.

Create following webpage in HTML :

1. Login Page This is the first page the user should see. The user can login, signup, or continue as a guest. Your task is to implement the following features: a) Signup form This form should collect the information required for creating a new account on your movie database website. At the least, it should collect an email address, username, avatar image/graphic, first name, last name, and a password. You can ask for more user details in the form such as date of birth. The form should ask the user to enter their password twice, to ensure that it is entered properly. After the signup, the user should be redirected to the same page (login page). The purpose of this is to let the user login after signup.

b) Login form This form should collect the user’s email and password to login. We will implement the logic to login in future assignments. After login, the user should be redirected to the Home page.

c) Continue as guest option This option should redirect the user to the Home page.

Write 2 detailed samples of scary text-based computer games. The location of your game could be a place that truly exists (possibly include research). Exclude graphic content. Remember to give choices to the player during the game.

The 2 text based games must be invented by you and list scene by scene the options given to the player.

Brief example of what the samples should look like:

There is an old, dark castle in front of you, will you go in? (options for the player: 1 yes; 2 no)

[...story details...]

Inside the room there is a dark figure standing in front of you (options for the player: 1 use phone;  2 get a gun; 3 leave the room)

[...]

you do not need to use a programming language, just writing 2 scary short stories as if they were games using your own words, and listing options for the player. each slide of the story leads to a next slide according to the decisions made by the player

Flexible Overhead Budget

Leno Manufacturing Company prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Press Department for October of the current year, during which it expected to require 18,000 hours of productive capacity in the department:

Variable overhead cost:
   Indirect factory labor $158,400
   Power and light 6,120
   Indirect materials 46,800
      Total variable overhead cost $211,320
Fixed overhead cost:
   Supervisory salaries $73,960
   Depreciation of plant and equipment 46,490
   Insurance and property taxes 29,580
      Total fixed overhead cost 150,030
Total factory overhead cost $361,350

Assuming that the estimated costs for November are the same as for October, prepare a flexible factory overhead cost budget for the Press Department for November for 16,000, 18,000, and 20,000 hours of production. Round your interim computations to the nearest cent, if required. Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

Factory Overhead Cost Variances

The following data relate to factory overhead cost for the production of 6,000 computers:

Actual: Variable factory overhead $254,600
Fixed factory overhead 62,500
Standard: 6,000 hrs. at $50 300,000

If productive capacity of 100% was 10,000 hours and the total factory overhead cost budgeted at the level of 6,000 standard hours was $325,000, determine the variable factory overhead controllable variance, fixed factory overhead volume variance, and total factory overhead cost variance. The fixed factory overhead rate was $6.25 per hour. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Variance Amount Favorable/Unfavorable
