Brian runs a small corner store. Last year he had sales of $260,000. The cost of goods sold was $130,000 and depreciation was $40,000. He did not pay any interest. His taxation rate was 32.5%. His fixed (non-current) assets were valued at $250,000 at the beginning of the year. During the year he invested in some refrigeration equipment and now his fixed assets are valued at $270,000. His net working capital fell by $30,000 because Brian adopted a stricter inventory management process. How much free cash flow (FCF) has Brian's corner store generated for him this year?

Select one: a. $40,750 b. $100,500 c. $70,750 d. $32,077 e. $90,800

Baggy Green Co. produces cricket kits for amateur and backyard cricket enthusiasts. Last year, the company reached its planned production of 20,000 kits and sold all but 2,000 kits. The kits sell for $50 each. Costs incurred in the production of the kits are as follows:

Baggy Green Co. uses a normal costing system.

Required:

1. Prepare an income statement under (i) variable costing and (ii) absorption costing
2. Reconcile the differences in reported income under variable and absorption costing. Explain how the differences occur

1. What is a bank run? Why is it so difficult to stop?

2. Describe how the lender of last resort function of a central bank can reduce runs on banks.

3. Describe how a financial panic can lead to a loss of income and employment in sectors of the economy seemingly unrelated to the financial sector.

Taxes are costs, and, therefore, changes in tax rates can affect consumer prices, project lives, and the value of existing firms. Evaluate the change in taxation on the valuation of the following project:

Assumptions: Tax depreciation is straight-line over three years. Pre-tax salvage value is 25 in year 3 and 50 if the asset is scrapped in year 2. Tax on salvage value is 40% of the difference between salvage value and book value of the investment. The cost of capital is 20%.

1. Please verify that the information given above yields NPV = 0.
2. If you decide to terminate the project in year two (2) what would be the NPV of the project?
3. Suppose that the government now changes tax depreciation to allow a 100% write-off in year one (1). How does this affect your answers to parts a and b above?
4. Would it now make sense to terminate the project after two rather than three years?
5. How would your answers change if the corporate income tax were abolished entirely?

Cynthia is a rideshare driver, and she often starts and stops her car. Each time Cynthia starts her car it either runs or stalls. If her car stalls when she starts it, then it always runs the next time she starts it. If her car runs when she starts it, then next time it is ten times as likely to stall as it is to run.

How often in the long run does Cynthia's car run when she starts it? Answer with a fraction in lowest terms.

We have an array of numbers, and we start at index 0.

At every point, we're allowed to jump from index i to i+3, i+4, or stop where we are.

We'd like to find the maximum possible sum of the numbers we visit.

For example, for the array [14, 28, 79, -87, 29, 34, -7, 65, -11, 91, 32, 27, -5], the answer is 140.

(starting at the 14, we jump 4 spots to 29, then 3 spots to 65, another 3 to 32, then stop. 14 + 29 + 65 + 32 = 140)

What's the maximum possible sum we could visit for this array:

[95, 69, 68, 44, 0, 53, 34, -83, -8, 38, -63, -89, 34, -91, 1, 39, -7, -54, 85, -25, -47, 89, -57, -18, -22, -50, -74, -91, -38, 99, 73, 7, 44, -47, -35, -70, 26, -54, -28, 7, -26, -73, -48, -76, -18, 94, -54, 65, -71, -10, 5, 64, 55, 68, 7, 41, -52, 57, -75, 90, -21, -47, -88, -5, -9, 46, -8, 71, 34, 82, 10, -37, 37, 1, 49, 91, 80, 57, -56, 83, -58, 24, -34, 30, -65, 42, -28, -84, -58, -62, 20, 89, -43, -16, 9, 37, -21, -71, -27, 93, 93, 3, 24, 51, 19, -54, -20, 43, 96, 15, -4, -30, -12, -88, 95, -89, 63, 63, 26, 34, 9, 66, 40, 59, -69, -29, -3, -89, -58, 45, 68, 45, 92, -51, 89, -75, 0, 14, 46, -20, -90, -83, 82, 29, -32, 68, 55, 41, -85, 56, 97, -11, -25, -28, 65, 61, 54, -36, -24, 98, 49, 19, 3, -94, -46, 26, 92, -72, -29, 93, 71, 15, 3, -89, -66, -85, -42, 83, 43, 27, 76, 71, 62, 44, 9, 2, 40, 8, 78, -6, -61, -93, 28, -46, -48, 25, -34, -91, 73, 90, 77, -5, 98, 1, -5, -85, 63, -15, 57, 20, 71, -67, -60, -46, -71, -9, 62, 99, 80, -15, 53, 29, 52, -91, -78, -77, -57, 21, -74, 46, -11, 74, -21, -48, -7, -56, 54, 8, -51, -61, -46, 79, 42, 97, 61, 40, -99, -13, 55, -53, -71, 80, 31, -35, 77, 89, -2, 75, 59, -66, 87, 23, 48, 80, -28, 86, 54, 37, -41, 95, -87, 79, -49, 8, -95, 66, 79, -38, 75, 49, -30, 7, -46, -44, 43, -26, -63, 23, 77, -8, 36, 83, 10, 12, -34, 32, -63, -32, 47, -5, 53, 66, 32, 14, 24, 28, 57, -48, -89, -51, -26, -21, -37, -41, -17, -40, 19, 25, 89, -11, 92, -43, -50, 53, -36, 50, -12, 68, -28, 18, 62, -48, -86, 87, -80, 58, 73, -93, 81, -86, 26, 3, 51, 74, 37, 45, 85, 12, 49, 93, -93, -5, 61, -64, -48, -11, 68, -36, -83, -18, 30, -53, -88, 6, 43, -38, 50, -28, 91, 49, 21, 86, -15, -18, 2, 0, 55, -73, 85, -49, -18, -90, 89, 79, -21, 23, 38, 43, 83, 72, 63, 14, -35, 81, -2, -71, 70, 51, -26, -20, 74, 10, -37, 61, -29, -62, 18, -46, 75, 98, 18, -4, 25, 13, 70, -34, 79, 16, -55, -7, -56, -55, 79, 29, 13, -31, -12, -29, -33, 12, 17, -5, -59, -12, 76, -6, -4, -5, -90, -45, -33, -14, -56, 64, -99, -65, -98, -97, 35, -50, -63, 8, -7, -46, 3, -69, 24, -23, -6, 78, -21, 2, -99, -29, 75, 40, -30, -40, 10, -41, -65, -42, -88, -8, -32, -2, -39, -95, -73, 32, 99, -35, -88, 81, -32, -19, 58, 83, -73, -23, 1, -34, -40, -39, 35, -52, -24, 57, -44, 2]

Assignment

Write a network diagnostics bash script that does the following:

• Finds the IPv4 address of the default gateway on your machine (one way to get this is the 'default' entry, also shown as 0.0.0.0, in the output of 'ip route') and runs a ping (with a count of 5 pings) to it.
• Runs another count of 5 pings to the site example.com.
• Outputs a 1-line summary of interfaces on your machine, not including the loopback address (lo).
• Outputs a 1-line summary of how many TCP ports are open (in state LISTEN)

The output of your script should look exactly like this (different numbers are OK). For the ping times output, use the 'avg' number from the ping command. This is the average that is calculated for you -- no need to calculate it in your script.

Ping time to default gateway:  0.348 ms
Ping time to example.com: 24.807 ms
Interface count:  2, and 2/2 are up
There are 7 TCP ports in the LISTEN state

2) A racecar is driving at 40 m/s when a rabbit 100 m away runs across the track. It takes 0.8 seconds for the driving to slam on his breaks. If the car decelerates at 8.0 m/s², how much time does the bunny have to get out of the way?
