Two individuals invest in a project which takes two periods to complete. At the start of period one, individual A invests 4.5 and individual B invests 1.5. At the end of period one, each of the investors has a chance to withdraw her investment. The decisions whether to withdraw from the project or not are made simultaneously. If either investor withdraws, the project is scrapped and the scrapped value is 4. If both investors withdraw, they shared the scrapped value in proportion to their investment. If one investor withdraws while the other does not, the one who withdraws gets the first claim on the scrapped value up to the amount of her investment. If neither investor withdraws at the end of period one, the investors have another chance to withdraw at the end of period two. If either investor withdraws, the payoffs are the same as before. If neither investor withdraws at the end of period two, the project is completed and the investors get the total of 12 in gross return which they share in proportion to their original investment. There is no discounting. If exists find the backwards induction outcome of the game.If exists find the backwards induction outcome of the game.

South Hampton University is preparing its budget for the upcoming academic year. This is a specialised private university that charges fees for all degree courses. Currently, 30,000 students are enrolled on campus. However, the university is forecasting a 5 per cent growth in student numbers in the coming year, despite an increase in fees to $3,000 per subject. The following additional information has been gathered from an examination of university records and conversations with university managers:

 South Hampton is planning to award scholarships to 200 students, which will cover their fees.

 The average class has 80 students, and the typical student takes 4 subjects per semester. South Hampton operates 2 semesters per year.

 The average academic staff salary is $120,000 per annum including on-costs.

 South Hampton’s academic staff are evaluated on the basis of teaching, research, administration and professional/community service. Each of the academic staff teaches the equivalent of three subjects during the academic year.

Required:

a) Prepare a revenue budget for the upcoming academic year.

b) Determine the number of staff needed to cover classes.

c) Assume there is a shortage of full-time academic staff. List and explain at least five actions that South Hampton might take to accommodate the growing student numbers. (200 words)

A small University in Florida offers STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) internships to men in STEM majors at the university. A man must be 20 years old or older to meet the age requirement for the internships. The table below shows the probability distribution of the ages of the men in STEM majors at the university.

Ages 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 or older

Probability 0.005 0.107 0.111 0.252 0.249 0.213 0.063

a. Suppose one man is selected at random from the men in STEM majors at the university. What is the probability that the man selected will not meet the age requirement for the internships? Show your work and label your answer with appropriate probability notation.

The university will select a simple random sample of 10 men in STEM majors to participate in a focus group about the internships.

(b) What is the probability that exactly 2 of the 10 men selected will not meet the age requirement for the internships? Show your work, round your answer to four decimal places, and label your answer with appropriate probability notation.

(c) What is the probability that more than 2 of the 10 men selected will not meet the age requirement for the internships? Show your work, round your answer to four decimal places, and label your answer with appropriate probability notation.

. In the provided scenario, you address the time value of money also known as discounted cash flow analysis. This type of analysis is crucial to being able to viably analyze financial statements.

The start-up firm you founded is trying to save $10,000 in order to buy a parcel of land for a proposed small warehouse expansion. In order to do so, your finance manager is authorized to make deposits of $1250 per year into the company account that is paying 12% annual interest. The last deposit will be less than $1250 if less is needed to reach $10,000.

o How many years will it take to reach the $10,000 goal and how large will the last deposit be? Show your work.

Explain the work please.

Data from the Framingham Study allow us to compare the distributions of initial serum cholesterol levels for two populations of males: those who go on to develop coronary heart disease and those who do not. The mean serum cholesterol level of the population of men who do not develop heart disease is µ = 206mg/10ml and the standard deviation is σ = 36mg/100ml. Suppose, however, that you do not know the true population mean; instead, you hypothesize that µ is equal to 230mg/100ml. This is the mean initial serum cholesterol level of men who eventually develop the disease. Since it is believed that the mean serum cholesterol level for the men who do not develop heart disease cannot be higher than the mean level for men who do, a one-sided test conducted at the α = 0.05 level of significance is appropriate.

a. How could you increase the power?

b. You wish to test the null hypothesis H0: µ ≥ 230mg/100ml against the alternative HA: µ < 230mg/100ml at the alpha = 0.05 level of significance. If the true population mean is as low as 206mg/100ml, you want to risk only a 5% chance of failing to reject H0. How large a sample would be required?

c. How would the sample size change if you were willing to risk a 10% chance of failing to reject a false null hypothesis?
