Task

Individual Presentation

To accomplish this CW you are required to take on a role of a consultant. The firm you are employed by has a number of both international and local clients requesting assistance and professional advice on various matters. One client request is listed below, with a description of the company background and difficulties encountered.

This is an individual assignment. The consultant has to work out solutions and suggestions to the client. All ideas, arguments and recommendations MUST BE justified and supported with references to academic sources or findings of primary research (if any). It is suggested (though NOT A MUST) that the consultant interviews one person, who they believe to be an expert in the sphere covered by the case. The results of the interviews might be shared with a client later on. On Referral/Deferral weeks all consultants will be presenting their findings in the form of a regular presentation.

Each Presentation will last for approximately 8-12 minutes and MUST be attended.

The following points summarise the information above and simplify the comprehension of the assignment:

Imagine that you are an employee of a consultancy firm.

Collect and analyse information, which will be necessary for your oral report.

Structure your speech and prepare technology (PPT slides or other) to support your speech if necessary.

Present your oral report at the meeting. You will be given the exact date and time of the meeting beforehand either BC or FoM module leader. Your speech should be no longer 8-12 min.

Participate actively in a follow up discussion with the assessors that will last 5 minutes. In this part, you can

ask clarifying questions

argue about any points

agree/disagree with any points

Anticipate possible questions from your lecturers regarding your work.

Respond to the following scenario using the following statement, choosing the description you feel most appropriate. Then, justify your response.

I feel the actions of this individual were (very ethical, ethical, neither ethical nor unethical, unethical, very unethical).

1. A university student found out that a fellow student's personal Web site contained a "pirate" section of illegally copied software programs. He accessed the Website and proceeded to download several games and professional programs, which he then distributed to several of his friends.

-The student's actions in downloading the games were:

-The student's actions in downloading the programs were:

-The student's actions in sharing the programs and games with his friends were:

Discuss alternate paths or actions that could have been taken, and why those alternate actions would have been ethical or not.

According to a study done by Nick Wilson of Otago University​ Wellington, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is

0.267. Suppose you sit on a bench in a mall and observe​ people's habits as they sneeze. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c).

​(​a)

Using the binomial​ distribution, what is the probability that among 16 randomly observed​ individuals, exactly 6 do not cover their mouth when​ sneezing?

The probability is....________

​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed)

b) What is the probability that among 16 randomly observed individuals fewer than 3 do not cover their mouth when sneezing?

c) fewer than half of 16 individuals covering their mouth _____ be surprising because the probability of observing fewer than half covering their mouth when sneezing is
________, which ______ an unusual event

(round to four decimals!!!!)

I have some data from a random sample of 343 students who are taking statistics at a particular college. For each student, gender is recorded along with their GPA. The mean GPA for the 182 males in the sample is 3.283. The mean GPA for the 161 females in the sample is 3.092. We wish to estimate the difference in the mean GPA’s for all males and females who take statistics at this college. The standard error of the relevant statistic is 0.043.

(a) Give notation for the parameter we are estimating.

(b) Give the best estimate of the parameter from the data. Use correct notation.

(c) The bootstrap distribution that was used to estimate the standard error is symmetric and bell-shaped. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the param- eter. Remember that the SE = 0.043.

(d) Is it plausible that the mean GPA’s for males and females taking statis- tics at this college is the same? Explain.

(e) Interpret the 95% interval in context.

(f) A standard error is a special kind of the standard deviation. What is it a standard deviation of? Also, what does the value of the standard error tell us in plain English?

b) The population parameter (write either single proportion or single mean):

c) The sample size:

(TCO 5) Jane’s parents have created a savings account to save for her college education. If they invest $1,000 a year at 6% interest beginning on her first birthday, how much will be in the account when she reaches age 18?

(TCO 5) You own a contract that promises an annuity cash flow of $250 year-end cash flows for each of the next 3 years. (Note: The first cash flow is exactly 1 year from today). At an interest rate of 8%, what is the present value of this contract?

(TCO 5) You have been accepted into a prestigious private university in Illinois for your doctoral program. Congratulations! Since no one from this school has ever graduated in only 4 years, you anticipate that you will need to make 11 semi-annual tuition payments of $35,000 each with the first cash flow 6 months from today. If you choose to discount these cash flows at an annual rate of 8%, what is the present value cost of tuition to attend your university of choice?

(TCO 5) You are about to purchase a new car from a dealer who has a new and unusual payment plan. You have the choice to pay $29,000 cash today or $32,000 in 4 years. If you have the opportunity to borrow the cash price value of the car at a rate of 3.0% and repay the loan in a lump sum in 4 years, which option should you take and why?

(TCO 5) Which choice has a greater present value if we assume a required rate of return of 8%? (1) A lump-sum cash flow today of $248.69 (2) $100 cash flows occurring 1, 2, and 3 years from today (3) A single cash flow of $331 3 years from today

A state’s Department of education reports that 43 percent of all college students in the state are foreign students. The state university wonders if the state’s claim is valid for diversity purposes. Admission officers from the university want to ensure that a significant portion of the applicants accepted were in fact foreign students. They sampled over 6,000 recently admitted students to gain an estimate for their university.

A) The admissions officers want to estimate the true percentage of foreign students on campus to within ±5%, with 95% confidence. How many applications should they sample?

B) They actually select a random sample of 550 applications, and found that 45%were foreigners. Create the 90 percent confidence interval. Be sure to verify the conditions.

C) Interpret what 90% confidence means in this context.

D) Should the admissions officers conclude that the percentage of foreign students in the college is lower than statewide enrollment rate of 43%? Explain.

A survey at Evashevski University showed that 75% of the student body believes that the school offers classes at appropriate times during the school day. To investigate with this feeling is shared by students specifically within the business department, the department polled a sample of 100 business students; 64 said they thought that classes were offered at appropriate times during the school day.

Use an α = .10.

A. Provide the appropriate hypothesis test criteria:

B. Using the data from the sample, answer the five fill-in-the-blank questions, and make the correct hypothesis test conclusion.

Based on these results, we should:

• Reject Ho

• Accept Ho

C. What does this poll say about business students at Evashevski University, compared to their peers at the university as a whole?
