1. Doctors need to be able to communicate quickly with patients who experience anxiety/probability/tendencies between appointments.

2. There is an irrational/apparent/anxious connection between patients' stress levels and wait time for doctors to provide them with test results.

3. The patients' appointments, phone calls, and stress are all probable/demonstrated/triggered by new symptoms or increased pain.

4. Patients' fears can seem irrational/logical/probable because there may not be a good reason to think they need immediate medical attention.

5. From the patient's point of view, the logic/triggered/demonstrated thing to do might be to contact the doctor and make sure everything is fine.

6. Since many patients have a probability/tendency/trigger to worry about medical issues, doctors have begun to use social media such as blogging to help patients outside of office hours.

7. Some doctors send mass email notifications of new blog posts to reduce the probability/anxiety/logic that patients will seek time-consuming answer to general questions

Eastern University had the following transactions at the beginning of its academic year:

Student tuition and fees were billed in the amount of $7,000,000. Of that amount, $4,500,000 was collected in cash.

Pell Grants in the amount of $2,000,000 were received by the university.

The Pell Grants were applied to student accounts.

Student scholarships, for which no services were required, amounted to $450,000. These were applied to student tuition bills at the beginning of each semester.

Suppose you are a microbiologist living in late 1800ies and early 1900. You suspect that the microorganism called Mycobacterium leprae might be responsible for the disease called leprosy. You had heard about a researcher called Robert Koch and his postulates, and you would like to follow his approach to test if leprosy is caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Explain stepwise and in detail the experimental procedure that you would follow. Please also explain what kind of results you would expect in each step of your procedure.

Please explain in detail how the microbiology information about the infectious diseases and their epidemiology, aseptic techniques of microbiology (sterilization, disinfection, antimicrobial techniques and agents) helped you during the COVID-19 pandemic. Please give detailed examples of how you used your microbiology and/or scientific knowledge in helping/informing people in your family and/or your community and/or how different was your behavior and attitudes than the others (non-microbiology/molecular biology people) around you during the COVID-19 pandemics and the lockdown period.

11. Suppose a school principal is trying to increase academic outcomes by providing snacks to students. She is allocating her money between two snack inputs: bananas and yogurt. She has a budget of $400. A carton of bananas costs $40, and a bundle of yogurts costs $50.

a) Draw the principal’s budget constraint, putting bananas on the x-axis and yogurts on the y-axis. Write down the equation for the budget constraint.

b) Suppose productive efficiency occurs at the point where she consumes 5 cartons of bananas and 4 bundles of yogurts. Label this point “PE” and draw the corresponding isoquant line at the point of efficient allocation.

c) Suppose the school district implements an input policy that specifies schools must spend their budget on providing at least 4 cartons of bananas to students. How will this change the way the principal allocates between bananas and yogurt? Explain.

d) Suppose that instead of an input policy, the school district implements a total resource policy and give the school a budget of $500 instead of $400. How does this change the amount of bananas purchased at the point of productive efficiency? How does this change the number of yogurts purchased? What is the slope of the isoquant at the new point of productive efficiency?

According to the website www.collegedrinkingprevention.gov, “About 25 percent of college students report academic consequences of their drinking including missing class, falling behind, doing poorly on exams or papers, and receiving lower grades overall.” A statistics student is curious about drinking habits of students at his college. He wants to estimate the mean number of alcoholic drinks consumed each week by students at his college. He plans to use a 99% confidence interval. He surveys a random sample of 55 students. The sample mean is 3.69 alcoholic drinks per week. The sample standard deviation is 3.56 drinks.

Construct the 99% confidence interval to estimate the average number of alcoholic drinks consumed each week by students at this college.

In the academic world there is no dearth of all-knowing professors. An even more all-knowing professor now joins the fray. She claims that her research is so thorough that she can always predict the future economic outlooks without fail. Hence, instead of offering probabilities about states of nature, as the previous professor did, she proposes that she will create a white-paper on the future of the economy. If the paper predicts a negative outlook the economy is certain to be ‘depressed’. On the other hand, if she predicts a positive outlook the economy is certain to be either ‘bright’ or ‘stable’ with equal probabilities.

She says that she will conduct her research and issue the economic forecast, either positive or negative, as she finds appropriate. Given her proposal, the company is now forced to do a bit of research itself. It finds that independent of her tall claims, the past experience indicates that there is only a 96% chance that the economy will be actually positive (either bright or stable with equal probabilities) if she predicts it to be positive, but there is a 4% chance that it will actually end up being negative (i.e. depressed) even though the forecast is positive. Conversely, there is an 89% chance that the economy will be actually negative (i.e. depressed) if she issues a negative report, however an 11% chance that it will actually end up being positive (either bright or stable) even though the report is negative. Using information from the past, the research also reveals that there is a 70% chance that the professor will issue a positive report and a 30% chance the report will be negative.

· Create a new pay-off table with appropriate alternatives, states of nature, probabilities, and pay off values, and evaluate the outcome from the best course of action (5 points).

· What is the maximum you will be willing to pay the professor for her services? (5 points)

Hints: Think about the baseline return/s that you will compare to the returns with her prediction?

You will need to think back to the ‘AND’ or the ‘Multiplication’ rules and/or the ‘OR’ or the ‘Addition’ rules (Chapter 2) to calculate the probabilities in this case.

we read in academic publications, trade journals and newspapers (also watch on TV) that there have been misuses of data collected from the consumers. Companies have began monetizing their data externally for purposes different than those for which the data was initially collected. There is a wide gap exist between 'what consumers views as ethical', and what the company views as ethical. Is this practice (by these companies) considered as 'unethical'? Yes or No? Why? Should we (consumer watch dogs or government agencies) hold these companies accountable for the ethical breach? What can a government do discourage (or minimize) this unethical behavior?
