According to a book published in 2011, 45% of the undergraduate students in the United States show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college (Richard Arum et al., Academically Adrift, University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2011). A recent sample of 1460 undergraduate students showed that this percentage is 31%. Can you reject the null hypothesis at a 10% significance level in favor of the alternative that the percentage of undergraduate students in the United States who show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college is currently lower than 45%. Use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches. Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places. zobserved =Enter you answer; z_observed Entry field with incorrect answer p-value =Enter you answer; p-valueEntry field with incorrect answer Critical value =Enter you answer; Critical valueEntry field with incorrect answer now contains modified data Hence we can conclude that the percentage of undergraduate students in the U.S. who show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college is currently Choose the answer from the menu in accordance to the question statementEntry field with incorrect answer 45%.

Sigma Company, a large manufacturer, is planning to sell an existing subsidiary and use the funds to buy land and build new factory. The proceeds of the sale are likely to be delayed, so the Directors have estimated that 10 million € will be needed in 3 months’ time for a period of 6 months. Given this, the directors have decided that a bank loan would be appropriate as a form of finance rather than equity sources.

After checking that interest rate yield curves in the financial press are normal than inverted, the treasurer is now looking to hedge the interest rate exposure. Traditionally Sigma Company has used forward rate agreements (FRAs) for hedging interest rate risk exposure but the treasurer is now considering using interest rate futures, although he is concerned that futures will not be as good a hedge as the FRAs.

Sigma Company’s bank have offered an FRA on the following terms:

3v9 FRA 7.2 – 7.8%.

Which TWO of the following are possible reasons why the Directors decided that a bank loan was preferable to equity in this case?

Select one or more:

a. The factory will act as security on the loan

b. They believe Modigliani and Miller’s theory of gearing with taxation

c. All equity sources have higher issue costs than the loan

d. The servicing cost of the debt will be lower

Provide complete answers to the following:
