An FM rock station claims that 85% of all its listeners are college students. A statistician decides to test this claim against the suspicion that the percentage is too high. A random sample of 2000 listeners is selected from the population of all listeners and it is determined that 1655 are college students. Perform a hypothesis test to answer the question: Do the sample results support the statistician’s claim at α = 1 %?

I. State the hypotheses (in words & symbols):

H0:

Ha:

II. Determine the model to test H0 Can one use a normal distribution for the Sampling Distribution model to perform this test? Please explain.

b) Using the appropriate notation, state the MEAN & STD ERROR of the sampling distribution:

Mean:

STD Error:

III. Determine the Decision Rule: State the decision rule:

IV. Analyze the sample data: Using the appropriate notation, state the sample result of the test, p-value and the test statistic.

sample result is:

p-value is:

test statistic is:

V. State the Conclusion:

4 Can the statistician reject the rock station's claim at α = 1%? YOU MUST EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER.

An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is a major milestone for a company. This is a very expensive and time-consuming process. It does not come without a lot of forethought and judicial weighing of the pros and cons. We will start this conversation by looking at some of the reasons why a company would decide to take the steps to become a publicly traded corporation. What pros and cons have to be weighed?

Instructions - Use the numbers in the instructions to organize your post and ensure that you meet all requirements.

1. The #1 benefit of an IPO is the capital that is raised. List one additional way a company would benefit from an IPO. Explain in one paragraph.

2. List one use of additional capital. Explain the benefit in one paragraph.

3. Many changes in reporting standards have been enacted as a result of financial scandals. Identify one specific change in reporting standards or requirements for publicly traded companies and explain why this is important. Identify the change by the title of the act or section number.

NOTE: The Sarbanes-Oxley Act is the most frequently mentioned changed. It contains many individual provisions. Break it down to one provision that has not been mentioned by a classmate. There are a number of more recent changes to select from as well.

Read the case below and answer the 3 questions.

Jordan Corp is a US manufacturer of auto parts with branch operations in France. On December 31, 2016 wishes to use a foreign currency option to hedge a 10,000,000 euro denominated accounts receivable that is due in two years. Jordan plans to use fair value hedge accounting. Over the subsequent 4 quarters the following are the changes in the fair value of the receivable and the foreign currency option hedge.

Quarter ended March 31, 2017:

Euro receivable increases by $ 400,000

Option hedge declines by $350,000

Quarter ended June 30, 2017:

Euro receivable decreases by $500,000

Option hedge increases by $ 400,000

Quarter ended Sept. 30, 2017:

Euro receivable decreases by $800,000

Option hedge increases by $700,000

Quarter ended Dec. 31, 2017:

Euro receivable increases by $ 200,000

Option hedge decreases by $ 100,000

Answer the following questions:

1 . Structure the appropriate fair value hedge using an FX option. Your answer must state whether Jordan is purchasing or selling a call option or a put option, what is the maturity date of the option as well as whether it is an option to purchase euros and sell US dollars or an option to purchase US dollars and sell euros. (1 point).

2 . Identify by codification reference, e.g., xxx-xx-xx-xx, and attach AND HIGHLIGHT the appropriate section(s) of the FASB codification that describe the alternate criteria that can be used to determine at December 31, 2017 whether or not this has been an effective fair value hedge (2 points ).

3. Using one of the alternate criteria in your answer to #2 above, state your conclusion as to whether this is an effective hedge, meeting the FASB criteria. You must include a computation to support your conclusion. (2 points ).

Pretend you and your lab partner are designers for the PhET simulations and want to make a simulation for students to investigate gravity fields. Think about what you know about gravity and what kinds of experiments a student might want to do to learn about gravity. You may have to refresh your memory by using the text. Draw a design, by hand, for a gravity simulation. Explain why you included each component and explain at least one experiment that a student could do.

From the reading this week, you will learn about the basic model that we use to explain the entire economy, aggregate demand-aggregate supply. All of the macroeconomic material is related to this model: GDP, inflation, unemployment. In chapter 12, you’ll read about how fiscal policy can affect the economy. The fiscal policy tools that you read about in this chapter are meant to adjust the aggregate demand side of the economy. But there is a debate about whether this is the side of the market that should be targeted. Some economists and policymakers would rather focus on policies that shift the aggregate supply (so-called “supply-side policies”).

For this discussion board, explain one of the reasons why policymakers usually focus on demand-side policies to achieve their macroeconomic goals as opposed to the supply-side ones. Be sure to include concepts from the chapters.

Provide one example of a demand-side policy and explain why and how it causes the aggregate demand to shift.

Similarly for the supply side, you need to explain one of the reasons why some may prefer to use supply-side policies.

Provide one example of a supply-side policy and explain why and how it causes the aggregate supply to shift.

In both cases, make certain that you are giving reasons supporting the use of these policies as opposed to giving reasons against the opposite policies.

Both supply-side and demand-side policies have impacts on inflation and unemployment. Explain what these impacts are for each type of policy (i.e. demand-side and supply-side policy).

Knowing these impacts and the reasons you explained above, which type of policy do you favor and why? Support your opinion with economic reasoning and concepts. If you use any other sources, be sure to cite them within the text as well as provide a bibliographical citation at the end.
