Bargain Rental Car offers rental cars in an off-airport location near a major tourist destination in California. Management would like to better understand the variable and fixed portions of its car washing costs. The company operates its own car wash facility in which each rental car that is returned is thoroughly cleaned before being released for rental to another customer. Management believes that the variable portion of its car washing costs relates to the number of rental returns. Accordingly, the following data have been compiled:

Exercise 5A-2 Part 2 (Algo)

2. Using least-squares regression, estimate the variable cost per rental return and the monthly fixed cost incurred to wash cars. (Round Fixed cost to the nearest whole dollar amount and the Variable cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)

Problem

Create a domain model for this system.

Virtual Safari is an augmented reality game similar to Pokémon Go.

A virtual jungle is populated by several kinds of agents: hunters (equipped with a smart phone containing a GPS device), monster factories, and ammo factories.

Agents have locations. These locations correspond to actual locations on a Google Map.

As a hunter moves, his location is updated. All nearby factories are displayed.

If a hunter is very near an ammo factory, he may request and receive 10 bullets (per hour) or he may purchase any number of bullets. (When this happens the hunter's account is debited.)

If a hunter is very near a monster factory, the factory waits a random time interval, spawns a monster, and then displays it to all very near hunters.

A monster has a type. The type of the monster tells the monster's name (e.g., Charmander, Squirle, Metapod) and integer value. The bigger the value, the harder it is to kill that type of monster.

Elite factories produce high-value types of monsters. They are rare and produce monsters infrequently.

A hunter can shoot a bullet at a monster. If enough bullets hit the monster, the monster is killed and added to the hunter's trophy room. The hunter's status is the sum of the values of all monsters in his trophy room.

1) A new cream that advertises that it can reduce wrinkles and improve skin was subject to a recent study. A sample of 63women over the age of 50 used the new cream for 6 months. Of those 63women, 36 of them reported skin improvement(as judged by a dermatologist). Is this evidence that the cream will improve the skin of more than 60% of women over the age of 50?

What's the process of each one and result? A singer quartet consisting of Angel, Betty, Carlos and Diana wants to practice their singing. However due to the pandemic they decide to do so at a baseball park to keep social distancing. Angel stands on the home plate, Betty goes to third base, Carlos to second base and Diana to first base. While they are getting ready a bird flies along the line joining third base and home, Betty says “That bird is singing at a frequency of 350 hertz”, but Angel says “No, it is singing at 340 hertz.” Soon after the bird leaves the park Diana sings a 440 hertz note, Carlos hears it 0.1 second later and sings a 261 hertz note. Part a Make a drawing of the bird’s flight path along the line joining third base and home, with an arrow indicating the direction of flight, towards home or away from home. Part b Explain why you chose that direction, include any equations that support your explanation. Part c How far is Carlos from Diana? Show your calculations. Part d What is the period of Carlos’ note at 261 Hertz. Include your calculations

Tommy Shelby lives in Mahebourg. On 15 June 2020, he lost his job as bartender in a hotel in the southern part of Mauritius, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He was offered Rs200,000 as severance allowance, for his 5 years of loyal service to the hotel. Taking into consideration the craze which online purchases took during the national confinement period, he is now thinking of investing the severance allowance money, to launch an e-commerce website for the sales of products. He is thinking of selling all types of tangible products that can be ordered online. He intends to earn a percentage of all sales made online, through his platform.
However, Tommy Shelby neither has any knowledge of information systems, nor any experience in electronic business. Therefore, your contribution is required to help Tommy Shelby set up his business by working out the following assignment.
1. Use the Porter 5 Forces Model to analyse the market viability for Tommy Shelby’s business.
2. Discuss how the STEEPLED factors can influence internationalization of Tommy Shelby’s e-commerce platform.
3. Define the strategies that Tommy Shelby need to put in place for his business to succeed and sustain.

1. On Friday March 10th 2017, around 11pm your instructor Mr. Tamba Yaradouno was at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago picking up a relative. At the passengers arrival what they call "Vestibule" or numbered gates, he could not park and waited for long. The area was packed, airport security cars flashing lights everywhere not allowing anyone to park but just enough time to pick up people.

On Friday October 12th 2018 at about same time your instructor was at the same spot of that airport to surprisingly notice that the area was completely empty and sat there for almost two hours.

Explain in your words in two pages including graphs (hand written or typed, Microsoft office word, times new roman, 12 fonds, double spaced):

a. What has happened to the demand curve of tourists visiting Chicago and the USA in general.

b. What could happened to both demand and supply curves of airport jobs, to the international flights into the USA if this trend of tourists decline continue.

Note: Do not include COVID- 19 here, this is the change of the world view of the USA from the Obama administration compared to President Trump and thus the changes of the number of tourists visiting USA

ABC company is considering producing a new range of smartphones that will require it to build a

new factory. Feasibility studies have been done on the factory which cost $5 million. The studies

have found the following:

1. The factory will cost $25 million and will have a useful life of 20 years.

2. The land where the factory will go is currently used as a carpark for workers and it is assumed that the company will have to pay $200000 per year for their workers to park in a nearby carpark.

3. The factory will be depreciated on a straight line basis and will have a salvage value of $0 but it is believed that most of it can be sold for scrap after 20 years for $50000.

4. Due to the nature of the business they are in, they will have to perform some environmental tests to make sure that some of the chemicals they are using are not entering the ground water around the factory. These tests will be performed every 5 years and cost $625000.

5. Through the building of this factory and the selling of the phones it produces, it’s revenue will increase by $5 million in year 1 and remain at this level for the operational life of the factory.

6. The extra costs that the company accrues per year due to the project are $435000 for labour, $50000 for overhead like power and water bills and marketing costs for the new line of phones will be $500000 per year but will decrease by $15000 per year as the phone gains greater penetration.

7. The company’s current cost of capital is 8% per year.

8. The tax rate is 30%.

9. The project requires an initial investment in working capital of $1000000 that is returned

   in year 20.

Use the above information to answer the following.

A. Calculate the free cash flows that come from this project for the 20 years it is operational. ​
