Scenario Modeler’s prospective stock has a 15% chance of producing a 65% return, a 25% chance of producing a 22% return, a 40% chance of producing a 9% return, and a 20% chance of producing a –24% return. What is the firm’s coefficient of variation of return?

Deep Value, Inc.’s annual stock returns for the last ten years are: –5%, 15%, 11%, 18%, –8%, 9%, 16%, –3%, 3%, and 35%. The Market Index’s annual returns for the same ten years are: 10%, 22%, 9%, 13%, –7%, 8%, 15%, –13%, –12%, and 18%. What is Deep Value’s beta coefficient?

Nonconstant Growth Stock Valuation

Conroy Consulting Corporation (CCC) has been growing at a rate of 20% per year in recent years. This same non-constant growth rate is expected to last for another 2 years (g_0,1 = g_1,2 = 20%).

1. If D₀= $1.00, r_s= 8% and g_L = 7%, then what is CCC's stock worth today? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round your intermediate computations.
   
   $ _______
   
   What is its expected dividend yield at this time? Round the answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate computations.
   
      _______ %
   
   What is its capital gains yields at this time? Round the answer to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate computations.
   
       _______ %

• What will CCC's dividend yield and capital gains yield be once its period of supernormal growth ends? (Hint: These values will be the same regardless of whether you examine the case of 2 or 5 years of supernormal growth, and the calculations are very easy.) Round the answers to two decimal places. Do not round your intermediate computations.

1. A criminologist is interested in whether there was any disparity in sentencing based on the race of the defendant. She selected two random samples of burglary convictions in one jurisdiction and recorded the prison terms given to the 10 white defendants in one sample and the 8 black defendants in the other sample. The sentence lengths (in years) for individuals in the two groups are shown below, along with the sample means and standard deviations. Using these data and a 0.05 alpha level, test the hypothesis that white and black defendants convicted of burglary in this jurisdiction receive prison sentences of different length.

a. In symbols and words, what is the null hypothesis for this test?

b. In symbols and words, what is the alternative hypothesis for this test?

c. Is this a one-sided or two-sided test? How do you know?

d. Will you use a z-test or a t-test in this situation? Why?

e. What is the critical value of the test statistic?

f. What is the value of the test statistic calculated from the sample results?

g. What decision about the null hypothesis does your test lead to?

h. Is the observed racial difference in sentence length statistically significant? Explain.

i. Would your decision be different if you used an alpha level of .01? Explain.

An engineering group needs to set up an assembly line to produce a new product. The following table describes the relationships between the activities, their predecessors, and the estimated activity times (in weeks) for this project. (10 points)

1. Using this data, develop a network for this project.
2. Identify the critical path and determine the expected time of completion of the project.
3. Prepare the detailed activity schedule for this project (i.e., provide a table showing EST, EFT, LST, LFT, Slack, critical path?).
4. Determine the probability that the project will be completed in:

1. Less than 42 weeks
2. Greater than 35 weeks
3. Between 42 to 44 weeks
4. Greater than 40 weeks

If a gambler rolls two dice and gets a sum of seven, he wins $10, and if he gets a sum of four, he wins $25. The cost to play the game is $5.

A. Give the probability distribution of the winnings for this game.

B. What are the expected winnings for a person who plays this game?

1.) Suppose heights of two-year-olds are normally distributed with a mean of 30 inches and a standard deviation of 3.5 inches.

a) What is the probability that one two-year-old will be shorter than 28 inches?

b) If random samples of size n = 40 two-year-olds are selected, what is the approximate shape, mean, and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means?

c) What is the probability that the sample mean of these 40 two-year-olds will be shorter than 28 inches? Why is the probability in part c) so much smaller than the probability in part a)?

d) What is the probability that the sample mean of these 40 two-year-olds will be taller than 31 inches?
