King Fisher Aviation is evaluating an investment project with the following case flows:

year 1 $6,000:

year 2 $5,500:

year3 $7,000:

year 4 $8,000

Discount rate 14 percent What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is 15,000? What if the initial cost is $12,000? What if the cost is $16,000?

I need all 4 years with the discount rate at 14% and with the different initial costs.

Ross Co., Westerfield, Inc., and Jordan Company announced a new agreement to market their respective products in China on July 18, February 12, and October 7, respectively. Given the information below, calculate the cumulative abnormal return (CAR) for these stocks as a group. Assume all companies have an expected return equal to the market return. (A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)

Abnormal returns (R_i-R_M)

Which statements regarding shape and charge complementarity are true?

1. Charge complementarity occurs when specific noncovalent binding interactions occur between two contacting surfaces.

2. The "charge" interactions can be charge-charge, H-bonding, or van der Waals interactions.

3. Shape complementarity refers to the intimate contact made between an antibody and its target antigen.

4. Shape and charge complementarity explain exclusively the interactions between an antibody and its target antigen.

a) Only statements 1, 2, and 3 are true.

b)Only statements 2, 3, and 4 are true.

c) Only statements 1, 2, and 4 are true.

d) All of the listed statements are true.

Private Good. In previous assignments, the competitive solution at P=MC = $3 resulted in Q = 7 and TC = $21. Assume the population doubles to six people by adding the same three people as below. (hint: some values are filled in to assist in the calculation.

Competitive Solution: P = MC =$3, Qc = _____, Pc = _____

Total Cost of Production = _____ Total Taxes from each resident = TC/6 = _____

Res. Total Valuation #1a = ___, #2a = ___, #3a = ___#1b = ___, #2b = ___, #3b = ____

Vote (Y or N): #1a = ___, #2a = ___, #3a = ___#1b = ___, #2b = ___, #3b = ____

Impact on Budget = Total Taxes – Total Cost = _____ - _____ = 0

Doubling the population resulted in (more than or less than) doubling of output and (more than or less than) doubling of total cost.

To test for any significant difference in the mean number of hours between breakdowns for four machines, the following data were obtained.

The mean times between breakdowns are 7.1, 9.1, 9.9 and 11.4 hours respectively. In the analysis of variance, MSTR = 19.26 and MSE = .97. Use the Bonferroni adjustment to test for a significant difference between all pairs of means. Assume that a maximum overall experiment error rate of .05 is desired.

There are six pairwise comparisons among the 4 machines. What error rate should be used for each pairwise comparison (to 4 decimals)?

Using t = 2.845 for the above error rate, calculate the Bonferroni LSD value (to 2 decimals).
  

Complete the table below to determine whether there are any significant differences between population means.

Consider a Hawk-Dove game which has been used by evolutionary biologists to model animal conflicts:

Find all pure strategy Nash equilibria in this game and a one mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium.

6. Find all monic irreducible polynomials of degree ≤ 3 over Z3. Using your list, write each of the following polynomials as a product of irreducible polynomials over Z3:

(a) x^4 + 2x^2 + 2x + 2.

(b) 2x^3 − 2x + 1.

(c) x^4 + 1.

Three different companies each purchased trucks on January 1, Year 1, for $60,000. Each truck was expected to last four years or 250,000 miles. Salvage value was estimated to be $5,000. All three trucks were driven 79,000 miles in Year 1, 47,000 miles in Year 2, 51,000 miles in Year 3, and 74,000 miles in Year 4. Each of the three companies earned $49,000 of cash revenue during each of the four years. Company A uses straight-line depreciation, company B uses double-declining-balance depreciation, and company C uses units-of-production depreciation.
