Computation of Effective Interest Rate

On June 30, 2016, Gaston Corporation sold $880,000 of 11% face value bonds for $925,670.41. On December 31, 2016, Gaston sold $370,000 of this same bond issue for $352,804.29. The bonds were dated January 1, 2016, pay interest semiannually on each December 31 and June 30, and are due December 31, 2023.

Emory Company purchased 15% of Milsaps at a cost of $300,000 on January 1, 2016. At the time, there was no significant influence and the securities were considered available for sale. Milsaps reported earnings in 2016 of $100,000 and paid dividends of $40,000. At the end of 2016, the value of Milsap’s stock held by Emory had risen to $385,000.

Record the journal entries for 2016 on the books of Emory regarding the events of Milsaps.

Imagine you wanted to design a quasi-experiment to study the hypothesis that Changing the start of the day in high school start time to 8:30 a.m. or later causes teens to suffer less depression. Imagine that there are four public high schools, all in the same area of the country, that are willing to participate in this study. Currently, they all start between 7:20 a.m. and 7:35 a.m., but in fact, two of the high schools are already planning to change their starting times next fall.

1.Why might it be more practical to conduct a quasi-experiment on this question, rather than a true experiment? (2 pts)

2. Using one of the designs below, design a quasi-experiment to research this question. Clearly identify which study type you are using and clearly demonstrate knowledge of the study design. (4 pts)

•Nonequivalent control group design (posttest-only)

•Nonequivalent control group design (pretest/posttest).

•Interrupted time-series design

•Nonequivalent control group interrupted time-series design

For the clinical trials of a weight-loss drug containing Garcinia Cambogia the subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The first received an inert pill along with an exercise and diet plan, while the second received the test medicine along with the same exercise and diet plan. The patients do not know which group they are in, nor do the fitness and nutrition advisors. a. Which is the treatment group? b. Which is the control group (if there is one)? c. Is this study blind, double-blind, or neither? d. Is this best described as an experiment, a controlled experiment, or a placebo-controlled experiment?



To test a new lie detector, two groups of subjects are given the new test. One group is asked to answer all the questions truthfully. The second group is asked to tell the truth on the first half of the questions and lie on the second half. The person administering the lie detector test does not know what group each subject is in. Does this experiment have a control group? Is it blind, double-blind, or neither? Explain.​​​​​​​

For this assignment, you participated in an online experiment on facial recognition. Using the data that I gave you and your statistics from the analysis, you will write a short lab report (2-3 pages) in APA style consisting of an Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion, and References.

Doing the experiment online is only to give you an idea of how the experiment works. You will write the mini lab report as if you were the researcher who conducted the experiment.

You may use this article by Rehman and Herlitz (2007) as a reference in your report: Facial Recognition Article

Here is the grading rubric for this report: Mini Lab Grading Rubric

Example 1.8. Fix a domain D, and let V be the set of all functions f(t) defined
on D. Define addition and scalar multiples as with polynomials for all t ∈ D:

(f + g)(t) = f(t) + g(t)
(cf)(t) = cf(t)

Then V is a vector space as well, the axioms are verified similarly to those for Pn.

Verify that V in the previous example satisfies the axioms for a vector space.
