CCNY, Inc. is considering the acquistition of a new left-handed press. The base price of the press is indicated below. In addition there are modification costs, noted below, for CCNY's special use. The press falls into the MACRS 3-year class. The new press is expected to speed up production and result in an increase in gross annual sales and an increase in annual variable costs as noted below. Inventories, accounts payable, and accounts receivable are all expected to increase (as noted) to support the heightened activity. The press is expected to be sold after three years for the given salvage value. The tax rate and appropriate discount rate are noted. Find the NPV of this project and indicate if the press should be purchased.

Suppose body mass index (BMI) varies approximately to the normal distribution in a population of boys aged 2-20. A national survey analyzed the BMI for American adolescents in this age range and found the µ=20 and the σ=1.75.
A) What is the 25th percentile of this distribution?
B) What is the z-score corresponding to finding a boy with at least a BMI 18.25?
C) What is the probability of finding a boy with at least this BMI, 18.25?

a couple intends to have three children. assume (for some reason) that having a boy or a girl are not equally likely events, and that p(boy)=.4 and p(girl)=.6 for each delivery also assume the births are independent of each other
(a. what is the sample space of this experiment? Use a tree diagram and label the branches with their corresponding probabilities. Then make a table including all outcomes from the experiment with their associated probabilities.
(b. Find the probability that the couple has exactly two girls.
(C. Find the probability that the couple has at least one boy
Let X represent the discrete random variable corresponding to the number of girls the couple has. What is the probability distribution of the random variable X? Hint: Take your table above, summarize it, and list "sideways"

A 7-year-old boy had recently started taking horseback riding lessons during his summer vacation. During a particularly rainy period, he did not take lessons for 2 weeks but started taking lessons again the following month. At the end of the summer, he started developing neck stiffness, fever, and mental confusion. He was taken to a hospital where a spinal tap was done and results were negative for bacterial meningitis. (1 pt each)
a. What disease is likely to have been the cause of this boy’s neurologic problems?
b. Name two aspects of his history that lead you to this conclusion.
c. What samples could be tested on this boy for confirmation of this disease?
d. What should this boy do next time before he goes horseback riding?

1. A class has 15 girls and 10 boys. The teacher wants to form
an unordered pair consisting
of 1 girl and 1 boy. How many ways are there to form such a
pair?
2. For the same setup (i.e. class of 15 girls and 10 boys), the
teacher wants to form an
unordered group of 3, consisting of 2 girls and 1
boy. How many ways are there to form
such a group?
3. For the same setup (i.e. class of 15 girls and 10 boys),
assume the teacher now wants to
form an ordered group of 3, consisting of 2 girls
and 1 boy (e.g., think of each student
having a different task, so their order, i.e. who does what,
matters). How many ways
are there to form such a group?

Assume that a lender offers a 30-year, $150,000 adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) with the following terms: Initial interest rate = 7.5 percent Index = one-year Treasuries Payments reset each year Margin = 2 percent Interest rate cap = 1 percent annually; 3 percent lifetime Discount points = 2 percent Fully amortizing; however, negative amortization allowed if interest rate caps reached Based on estimated forward rates, the index to which the ARM is tied is forecasted as follows: Beginning of year (BOY) 2 = 7 percent; (BOY) 3 = 8.5 percent; (BOY) 4 = 9.5 percent; (EOY) 5 = 11 percent. Compute the payments, loan balances, and yield for the ARM for the five-year period.
