1) To test two methods of instruction, 50 students are selected at random from each of two groups. At the end of the instruction period, each student is assigned a grade (A, B, C, D, or F) by an evaluating team. The data are recorded as following:
Grades
| A | B | C | D | F | Totals | |
| Group I | 8 | 13 | 16 | 10 | 3 | 50 |
| Group II | 6 | 10 | 14 | 14 | 6 | 50 |
Test the null hypothesis H0 that the two methods of instruction made no difference at the 5% significance level.

7–44 Reconsider Prob. 7–43. Using appropriate software, investigate the effects of the source temperature and final pressure on the total entropy change for the process. Let the source temperature vary from 30 to 210°C, and let the final pressure vary from 250 to 500 kPa. Plot the total entropy change for the process as a function of the source temperature for final pressures of 250 kPa, 400 kPa, and 500 kPa, and discuss the results.

David gets $90 per month as an allowance to spend any way he pleases. Because he likes only peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, he spends the entire amount on peanut butter (at $1 per ounce) and jelly (at $2 per ounce). Bread is provided free of charge by a concerned neighbor. David is a picky eater and makes his sandwiches only one way-- with exactly one ounce of peanut butter and two ounces of jelly. You can use increments of 10 on both axes.
1. Carefully draw and label any 3 accurate indifference curves. Label them U1, U2 and U3 such that U3>U2>U1.
2. Label the following two points in your graph: Bundle A (50 Jelly and 20 Peanut Butter) and Bundle B (30 Peanut Butter and 40 Jelly). Carefully explain whether David gets more satisfaction from Bundle A or Bundle B.

There are 50 students in a classroom at UT-Almost. Thirty of these students started as freshmen at UTA; the rest are transfers. The transfer students are split evenly between business majors and liberal arts majors. the total number of business majors is 25. (use for both questions)
#13 – If we randomly selected a single student, what is the probability he/she will be either a liberal art major or a transfer student?
ANSWER:
#16 – Suppose we randomly selected two students using this process: We take 40 envelopes and insert a slip of paper (either red or white) into each one. Each envelope is then sealed and then placed in a big box from which students draw one envelope each. The student who draw envelopes with red slips inside them are selected. Two of the envelopes contain red slips; the rest contain white. What is the probability that both students selected will be transfers?

A small entrepreneurial company is trying to decide between developing two different products that they believe they can sell to two potential companies, one large and one small. If they develop Product A, they have a 50% chance of selling it to the large company with annual purchases of about 20,000 units. If the large company won't purchase it, then they think they have an 80% chance of placing it with a smaller company, with sales of 15,000 units. On the other hand if they develop Product B, they feel they have a 40% chance of selling it to the large company, resulting in annual sales of about 17,000 units. If the large company doesn't buy it, they have a 60% chance of selling it to the small company with sales of 20,000 units.

Beckman Engineering and Associates (BEA) is considering a change in its capital structure. BEA currently has $20 million in debt carrying a rate of 8%, and its stock price is $40 per share with 2 million shares outstanding. BEA is a zero-growth firm and pays out all of its earnings as dividends. The firm's EBIT is $14 million, and it faces a 25% federal-plus-state tax rate. The market risk premium is 4%, and the risk-free rate is 6%. BEA is considering increasing its debt level to a capital structure with 50% debt, based on market values, and repurchasing shares with the extra money that it borrows. BEA will have to retire the old debt in order to issue new debt, and the rate on the new debt will be 10%. BEA has a beta of 1.1.
A. What is BEA's unlevered beta? Use market value D/S (which is the same as wd/ws) when unlevering. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
B. What are BEA's new beta and cost of equity if it has 50% debt? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Beta: 1.30 Cost of equity: %
C. What is BEA's WACC with 50% debt? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. %
D. What is the total value of the firm with 50% debt? Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1.234 million should be entered as 1.234, not 1,234,000. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Based on the criteria used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), identify each person’s status as employed, unemployed, “not in the labor force” (if not in the civilian labor force but still part of the adult population), or “not in the adult population” if not in the civilian adult population. Person Status Lorenzo is a 75-year-old professor. He teaches only one or two courses a year, but he's still pursuing an active research agenda. Neha is a 36-year-old autoworker who was just laid off by her employer. She is trying to find any kind of job to help make ends meet. Sam is a 41-year-old graphic designer who is taking 2 years off from work to care for his small daughter. Beth is a 29-year-old who lost her job as an associate producer for a radio station. After spending a few weeks out of work and interviewing for several other positions, she gave up on her job search and decided to go back to grad school. She made that decision a few months ago. Andrew is a famous novelist. He is spending the summer at his lake house in upstate New York, doing a little writing each day but mostly spending his time gardening and reading. Teresa is a 11-year-old student at West Valley Middle School. She babysits her younger sister and does other chores, so her parents give her an allowance of $20 per week. Complete the right half of the following equation to reflect the labor force participation rate reported by the BLS. Labor Force Participation Rate = According to this formula, what is the labor force participation rate of this economy of six people? 33.33% 40% 50% 60% Complete the right half of the following equation to reflect the unemployment rate reported by the BLS. Unemployment Rate = According to this formula, what is the unemployment rate of this economy of six people? 33.33% 40% 50% 60%
