The patient is a 38 year old male plant manager and
new long distance runner presenting with complaints of left
anterolateral hip and thigh pain. He was referred to physiotherapy
from his orthopedist, who diagnosed him with greater trochanteric
bursitis.
His onset of symptoms was 6 weeks prior to the initial evaluation,
after running a marathon (26.2 miles). By the end of the race, he
was in intense, constant pain, rated at a 5/10 that remained
constant for 3 days after. His symptoms became intermittent, and
have not changed much since that time. His plan was to run 4
marathons in the next year, but he has stopped running completely,
as every time he runs the pain comes back to the same intensity it
was immediately after the race.
Since becoming symptomatic he has tried many stretches and
strengthening exercises he researched on the internet. He has also
received advice from his massage therapist. However, the same pain
comes back when he runs. He has good shoes, and changes them every
250-300 miles, per industry recommendations. Because of all of his
research, he is concerned that this is an issue that is going to
keep him from running altogether.
When asked if the patient had any imaging, he replied “only an
xray”. Then he said, “Why, do you think I need an MRI?” Sensing
fear of life-altering structural damage, the patient was assured
that one of the goals of physiotherapy is to determine the right
place for them. With a careful assessment over 2-3 visits, we
should know if further testing is necessary.
1. Given the history, anatomy and function of the hip, which
structures are you going to examine? Explain why and how you will
perform the examination of these structures.
2. What functional activities would you assess and how would you
establish these functional baselines. How
vigorous can you be in your examination?
3. What examination tests would you use, and why would you use
them?
4. What other subjective information would you get from this
runner?

13. A manager wants to know whether customers in Taiwan, on average, would spend more than $2,000 per month on the service that is similar to what her company provides. The following information regarding the consumer behavior of 49 customers was provided by the marketing research team: sample mean = $2,400 and sample standard deviation = $1,800. Using the sample information provided and 0.05 significance level, determine the critical value and calculate the value of the test statistic.
A. Critical value = –1.96 & +1.96, and Test statistic = –1.56
B. Critical value = –1.645, and Test statistic = –1.56
C. Critical value = +1.645, and Test statistic = +1.56
D. Critical value = +1.96, and Test statistic = +1.56
14. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a normal variable?
A. It can be converted into the standard normal variable.
B. The values are from –∞ to +∞.
C. The center line is always at 0.
D. The probability of each individual value is virtually 0.
15. A tire manufacturer claims that his tires have a mean life of 60,000 miles when used under normal diving conditions. A firm that requires a larger number of these tires wants to test the claim. If the claim is correct, the firm will purchase the manufacturer’s tires; otherwise, the firm will seek another supplier. Now a random sample of 100 tires is taken and the mean and standard deviation of the 100 tires are found. Using these sample results, a 95% confidence interval for the mean life of the tire is estimated as from 56,789 to 63,211 miles. The manufacturer’s claim is tested at the 5% significance level. Based on the given information, what should the firm do?
A. The firm will seek another supplier.
B. Cannot be determined because of insufficient information.
C. The firm will purchase the manufacturer’s tires.
D. The firm will purchase half from the manufacturer and the other half from another supplier.
16. Because of the relatively high interest rates, most consumers attempt to pay off their credit card bills promptly. However, this is not always possible. An analysis of the amount of interest paid monthly by a bank’s Visa cardholders reveals that the amount is normally distributed with a mean of $1,735 and a standard deviation of $285. What interest payment is exceeded by only 15% of the bank’s Visa cardholders?
A. $1,438.60
B. $1,585.375
C. $1,884.625
D. $2,031.40

Question 2
You are an auditor on the BLUE Limited (BLUE) audit engagement for the financial year ending 30 September 2019. BLUE is a large hotel company with more than 1000 hotels in Australia and Asia under a range of hotel brands. You are in the process of undertaking audit planning procedures for the BLUE audit. You have noted a number of significant risks outlined below.
BLUE’s revenue is made up of management fees earned from hotels managed by BLUE under long-term contracts with hotel owners, and from the rental of rooms and food and beverage sales from hotels owned and leased by the company directly. In hotels owned and leased directly by BLUE, the company’s practice is to confirm hotel bookings by taking credit card details and collecting payment for accommodation and incidentals at the end of a customer’s stay. You have noted an increasing incidence of corporate clients prepaying for their employees’ accommodation. These have been recorded as revenue when payment has been received.
It has also come to your attention that there have been a growing number of disputes with hotel owners in relation to the amount of management fees being charged. Management fees included a base fee, a percentage of hotel revenue, and an incentive fee based on the hotel’s profitability. Individual contracts negotiated with hotel owners include provisions for percentage increases of the base fee either annually or biannually to take effect at specific dates. Based on your initial review of the correspondence, it appears that BLUE has been applying percentage increases to the base fee charged to hotel owners prior to their effective date as contained in the contracts with individual hotel owners.
BLUE runs a hotel loyalty program which enables members of the program to earn points for every dollar spent on accommodation, food and beverages at BLUE branded hotels. These points may be redeemed at a later date for free accommodation or other benefits. BLUE records a loyalty program future redemption liability on the basis of the number of points expected to be redeemed prior to their expiry multiplied by redemption cost per point. An announcement was made on 30 May 2017 that points earned under the loyalty program would now expire in two years rather than five years from the time they are earned. BLUE’s management subsequently reduced the amount provided in the loyalty program future redemption liability by $80 million based on their estimate of the revised amount required to meet the liability given the impact of the change.
BLUE has embarked on a large-scale software development project in the current year to internally develop improved guest reservation and hotel management systems. An amount of $37 million for the year has been capitalised as software development during the year. Your initial review has revealed that this amount includes repairs and maintenance of a range of BLUE’s hardware incurred during a year.
