Suppose you are in the market to purchase a used car. To make an informed decision regarding your purchase, you would like to collect as much information as possible. Among the information you might consider are the typical price of the car, the typical number of miles the car should have, and its crash test results, insurance costs, and expected repair costs.

Make a list of at least three cars that you would consider purchasing. To be fair, the cars should be in the same class (compact, midsize, etc). They should also be of the same age.

Collect information regarding the three cars in your list by finding at eight cars of each that are for sale. Obtain such information as the asking price and the number of miles the car has. Sources of data include your local newspaper, classified ads, and car websites (www.cars.com and www.vehix.com). Compute the summary statistics for asking price, number of miles, and other variables of interest. Remember, the summary statistics include min, max, mean, median, mode, range, variance, standard deviation, and so on.

Write a report (4 paragraphs) in Microsoft Word with supporting data supporting your conclusion regarding which car you would purchase and why.

Attach the Excel sheet used for the primary data source.

You’ll submit both the Word document and Excel file.

You have two very ill patients this week, and each of them presents a very complicated case. First, you have a patient with an ongoing problem that has resisted diagnosis. He was enroute to an evaluation with a neurologist, but on the way to the hospital suddenly fell into a coma (a state of involuntary unconsciousness due to illness or injury) and had to be brought in to your medical facility by ambulance.

You will use at least 10 medical terms to describe this patient, and to refer to the original underlying problem the patient had in the first place. Use the nervous system medical word elements chart and the medical, surgical, and diagnostic terms chart on from your textbook to get you started on the medical terms you will need. You can include specific drugs used in neurological disease as you list at least 3 tests and procedures used.

Your second patient this week is also quite ill and is presenting a number of problems. This patient is diabetic, and also has another Endocrine System disorder (of your choice). Consult the endocrine medical word elements chart as you develop medical terms—include at least 10 that would be appropriate in this case. You should consult medical, surgical, and diagnostic procedures in your textbook as you select at least 3 tests and procedures for this patient. .

Peterson Co.’s shareholder equity and the percentage of an upcoming stock dividend.

Peterson is considering either a 34% stock dividend or a 7% stock dividend.

Insert the total equity amount here. (The company is using the cost method for treasury stock.):

Set up cell C16 on P1 so that it AUTOMATICALLY displays the word “Small” or the word “Large” as appropriate to describe the stock dividend (the IF function would accomplish this). Assume a small stock dividend is less than 25%.

Insert the Retained Earnings amount here:

$___________________________________ (% = 34%)

Total each of the columns. Note the total of the “Effect” column should be zero.
