1. Based on the percentages that were observed statewide, if the percent of students in each category at the high school did not differ from the statewide percentages, what would be the expected values for each classification?

2. What are the observed percentages for each category at the local high school? (Note: SPSS does not include this information in the output. It must be manually calculated by dividing the number in each category by the total number of students and multiplying by 100)

3. Write an appropriate null hypothesis for this analysis.

4. What is the value of the chi-square statistic?

5 What are the reported degrees of freedom?

6. What is the reported level of significance?

7. Based on the results of the one sample chi-square test, is there a statistically significant different between the distribution of students at the local high school and the statewide distribution?

8. Report and interpret your findings as they might appear in an article.

In that same year, the mean of the math portion of the SAT was 466, with a standard deviation of 117. Keep that in mind to answer the following questions:

a) Some schools use SAT scores for admission. Suppose an engineering school established 600 as the lowest acceptable score for admission. What proportion of the high school seniors would be excluded by such a policy? Draw the picture

b) What proportion of the population would be expected to score between 350 and 550? Draw the picture

c) Some colleges have a fairly stiff math requirement. Suppose the college decided not to admit anyone who was in the bottom 15 percent of the population. What would the cutoff score be? Draw the picture

d) In an urban high school, there were 750 college-bound seniors. How many could be advised to not bother to apply to the school mentioned in A and C above? Draw the picture

e) In working the problems above, you have been making an important assumption about the distribution of math SAT scores. What is that assumption?

The purpose of this study was to document the type of food marketing activities occurring in Canadian schools and examine differences by school characteristics. Overall, 84% of schools reported at least one type of food marketing and the median number of distinct types of marketing per school was 1 (range 0–6). Food marketing, Schools, Canada, Policy, Food environment, Obesity, Self-regulation, Children, Adolescents An online survey was sent to public primary and secondary schools from 27 school boards in Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia and was completed by 154 Principals in spring 2016. The presence of food marketing in most participating schools suggests that the current patchwork of policies that restrict food marketing in Canadian schools is inadequate. Unhealthy food marketing is considered a contributor to childhood obesity. In Canada, food marketing in schools is mostly self-regulated by industry though it is sometimes restricted through provincial school policies.

Conch Republic Electronics Conch Republic Electronics is a midsized electronics manufacturer located in Key West, Florida. The company president is Shelly Couts, who inherited the company. The company originally repaired radios and other household appliances when it was founded over 70 years ago. Over the years, the company has expanded, and it is now a reputable manufacturer of various specialty electronic items. Jay McCanless, a recent MBA graduate, had been hired by the company in its finance department. One of the major revenue-producing items manufactured by Conch Republic is a smart phone. Conch Republic currently has one smart phone model on the market and sales have been excellent. The smart phone is a unique item in that it comes in a variety of tropical colors and is preprogrammed to play Jimmy Buffett music. However, as with any electronic item, technology changes rapidly, and the current smart phone has limited features in comparison with newer models. Conch Republic spent $750,000 to develop a prototype for a new smart phone that has all the features of the existing one but adds new features such as wifi tethering. The company has spent a further $200,000 for a marketing study to determine the expected sales figures for the new smart phone. Conch Republic can manufacture the new smart phone for $205 each in variable costs. Fixed costs for the operation are estimated to run $5.1 million per year. The estimated sales volume is 64,000, 106,000, 87,000, 78,000, and 54,000 per year for the next five years, respectively. The unit price of the new smart phone will be $485. The necessary equipment can be purchased for $34.5 million and will be depreciated on a seven-year MACRS schedule. It is believed the value of the equipment in five years will be $5.5 million. Net working capital for the smart phones will be 20 percent of sales and will occur with the timing of the cash flows for the year (i.e., there is no initial outlay for NWC). Changes in NWC will thus first occur in Year 1 with the first year?s sales. Conch Republic has a 35 percent corporate tax rate and a required rate of return of 12 percent. Shelly has asked Jay to prepare a report that answers the following questions: Questions

5. How sensitive is the NPV to changes in the price of the new smart phone?

6. How sensitive is the NPV to changes in the quantity sold?

7. Should Conch Republic produce the new smart phone?

8. Suppose Conch Republic loses sales on other models because of the introduction of the new model. How would this affect your analysis?

CHAPTER 9 CASE Jackson Erectors    Making Capital Investment Decisions

Jackson Erectors is a midsized electronics manufacturer located in Austin, Texas. The company president is Shelly Couts, who inherited the company. The company originally repaired radios and other household appliances when it was founded more than 70 years ago. Over the years, the company has expanded, and it is now an established manufacturer of various specialty electronic items. The company’s finance department has hired YOU, a recent MBA graduate to do an analysis of a proposed new product.

One of the major revenue-producing items manufactured by Jackson is a “controller” which are used in various types of automated equipment. Jackson currently has one model on the market and sales have been good. The technology in electronic devices is constantly changing. However, as with any electronic item, technology changes rapidly, and the current model has limited features in comparison with newer models. Jackson spent $400,000 to develop a prototype for a new controller that will be “state of the art”. The company has spent a further $100,000 for a marketing study to determine the expected sales figures for the new model.

Jackson can manufacture the new controller for $300 each in variable costs. Fixed costs for the operation are estimated to run $4.0 million per year. The estimated sales volume is 70,000, 90,000, 95,000, 85,000, and 75,000 per year for the next five years, respectively. The unit price of the new controller will be $550. The necessary equipment can be purchased for $40.0 million and will be depreciated on a seven-year MACRS schedule. It is believed the value of the equipment in five years will be $2.5 million.

Net working capital for the controller will be 15 percent of sales and will occur with the timing of the cash flows for the year (i.e., there is no initial outlay for NWC). Changes in NWC will thus first occur in Year 1 with the first year's sales. Jackson has a 30 percent corporate tax rate and a required return of 12 percent. Shelly has asked you to prepare a report that answers the following questions:
