2. The chair of the Criminal Justice department wants to know if students are generally satisfied with their selection of CJ as a major and if there is a difference in perceptions when students with different educational experiences are compared. She administered a survey to a sample of 100 students, 25 students at each academic rank. Based on the information included in the following table…. [Hint: chi-sq. = 20.49]

2.1. Formulate the null and research/alternative hypotheses.

2.2. Calculate the chi-square

2.3. Report the critical chi-square at the corresponding probability level [.05]and degrees of freedom

2.4. Test the null hypothesis and reach a statistical conclusion

2.5. Interpret your results

Write an analysis in which you address the following: • Select two publicly-traded companies within the same industry and present the DuPont analysis for each of these companies. Explain how the debt has served to influence the ROE DuPont performance results for each, and then describe how volatility plays a role in the debt choices in the context of this DuPont analysis. • Consider each of the following capital structure theories: the tradeoff theory, the signaling theory, the debt financing to constrain the manager’s argument, and the pecking order hypothesis. Briefly describe each of these, and then order them in terms of which theory you believe to be most persuasive down to which you believe to be least persuasive. Form arguments defending your rankings and reference and discuss related academic studies to support your position.

My son plays basketball for a small private college in Iowa. During the recruiting process, the college coaches face an information asymmetry problem -- they can observe a recruit's playing skills by watching games and practice sessions, but they cannot gather full information about other personal characteristics that are important in college athletics (e.g., academic ability, work ethic and emotional maturity). For this reason, the college coaches use a variety of sources to learn about the recruits, including social media posts. Accordingly, the recruits are advised to be careful about what they post on social media. Many employers also use social media to learn about job candidates due to information asymmetry problems. Is this practice fair? Should employers use this sort of personal information to make decisions about potential work performance?

1. In the Introduction to the Course, we discussed three processes of globalization in the world economy: internationalization, liberalization, and the information and communications technological revolution(s). Explain the meaning of these terms, how they differ, and how they are important. Use specific empirical examples to clarify the abstract terms and illustrate the conceptual differences.

Here are the projected numbers (in thousands) of earned degrees in a certain country during one academic year, classified by level and by the sex of the degree recipient:

Use these data to answer the following questions.

(a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen degree recipient is a man? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)


(b) What is the conditional probability that the person chosen received a bachelor's degree, given that he is a man? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)


(c) Use the multiplication rule to find the probability of choosing a male bachelor's degree recipient. Check your result by finding this probability directly from the table of counts. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

There are the two-party systems in America. cover the topic in a blog post of at least 350 words. Information your blog must include is: Information on why we have a two-party system (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT) An examination of the two major parties in America Explain that other parties exist (and a bit why) Your blog must include specific information from the readings. must cite the assigned readings in the text (parenthetical citations) and have a list of your sources the end of your blog post. As a reminder, this is a blog post for a fictitious website. In this case, think about that which would help keep a reader interested (use of graphics, current events, appropriate font styles) while still maintaining good academic writing/argumentation.

“It should be the most important document a shareholder reads - - but the annual report is often less useful than it ought to be and change is needed…It’s too difficult and detailed to see the wood from the trees. Despite the multiple disclosures, one report is far from comparable with another, so it’s hard to benchmark against competitors.”

“Its production was evidently left to people whose primary interest was not creating an efficient piece of communication. It fails, again and again, the first test of a management document, which is that the content must not be obscured by the presentation.”

Crosland, J. (2013) The perfect annual report. Investors Chronicle, August 30.

Required:

With reference to relevant academic literature and a range of companies, critically appraise the above statements. The answer should critically evaluate the comparability issues and other limitations of the annual reports.

I want to find out what the undergraduate student body thinks about the school proposal to reallocate funds marked for academic development (hiring more faculty/adding more classes) towards the expansion of the Campus Gym. So I head over to Campus Gym and set up a booth next to the entrance of the building. I ask everyone who passes by whether or not they support the proposal, and get 500 responses.

1. Will my sampling scheme lead to sampling bias? Will it lead to sampling variability? Explain.  
2. Do you think that the sample statistics from this study will closely approximate the population parameters? If not, use two or more terms that we have learned in this course to tell me what is wrong with my sampling scheme. (These terms should not include “sampling bias” or “sampling variability.”)
