The body temperatures of a group of healthy adults have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 98.08degreesF and a standard deviation of 0.63degreesF. Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures within 1 standard deviation of the mean, or between 97.45degreesF and 98.71degreesF? b. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.19degreesF and 99.97degreesF?

Each of the distributions below could be used to model the time spent studying for an exam. Take 1,000 random samples of size 25 from each of the distributions below. In each case (a,b,c), plot the empirical distribution of the sample mean, estimate the mean of the sample mean, and estimate the standard deviation of the sample mean. Compare the results to the theoretical results.
a. N(5, 1.52)
b. Unif(0,10)
c. Gamma(5,1)

You are the manager responsible for the audit of Aspersion, a limited liability company, which mainly provides national cargo services with a small fleet of aircraft. The draft accounts for the year ended 30 September 2001 show profit before taxation of Kshs2·7 million (2000 ñ Kshs2·2 million) and total assets of Kshs10·4 million (2000 ñ Kshs9·8 million). The following issues are outstanding and have been left for your attention:
(1) The sale of a cargo carrier to Abra, a private limited company, during the year resulted in a loss on disposal of Kshs400,000. The aircraft cost Kshs1·2 million when it was purchased in October 1992 and was being depreciated on a straight-line basis over 20 years. The minutes of the board meeting at which the sale was approved record that Aspersionís finance director, Iain Jolteon, has a 30% equity interest in Abra.
(2) As well as cargo carriers, Aspersion owns two light aircraft which were purchased in 1998 to provide business passenger flights to a small island under a three year service contract. It is now known that the contract will not be renewed when it expires at the end of March 2002. The aircraft, which cost Kshs450,000 each, are being depreciated over fifteen years.
(3) Deferred tax amounting to Kshs570,000 as at 30 September 2001 has been calculated relating to tangible non-current assets at a tax rate of 30% using the full provision method (IAS 12 ëIncome Taxesí). On 1 December 2001, the government announced an increase in the corporate income tax rate to 34%. The directors are proposing to adjust the draft accounts for the further liability arising.
Required:
For each of the above points:
(i) Comment on the matters that you should consider; and
(ii) State the audit evidence that you should expect to find, in undertaking your review of the audit working papers and financial statements of Aspersion.

Business Problem: A computer company produces laptop and desktop computers. The data analytics team in collaboration with the marketing team developed a predictive model that forecasts the expected demand for laptops to be at least 1,000, and for desktops to be at least 800 per day. (Assumption: production is in accordance with the demand) The production facility has a limited capacity of no more than 2,000 laptops and 1,700 desktops per day. The Sales Department indicates that contractual agreements of at most 2,000 computers per day must be satisfied. Each laptop computer generates $600 net profit and each desktop computer generates $300 net profit. The company wants to determine how many of each type should be made daily to maximize net profits.
2. Formulate a linear programming model that represents the preceding business challenge. b. Identify the decision variables. c. What is our objective function in terms of these decision variables, write down its mathematical equation) d. What are the constraints for this problem, write down their respective mathematical equations.
b) Decision Variables: X (laptop) & Y (desktop) # of units to produce for laptop & desktop a day
c) Objective function: Maximize the profit
Max profit Z = 600x + 300y
d) Constraints:
Expected demand x=>1000 and y=>800
Production capacity x<=2000, y<=1700
Contractual agreements x + y <=2000 non negative restrictions x=>0 and y=>0
