Sanders Enterprises, Inc., has been considering the purchase of a new manufacturing facility for $284,000. The facility is to be fully depreciated on a straight-line basis over seven years. It is expected to have no resale value after the seven years. Operating revenues from the facility are expected to be $119,000, in nominal terms, at the end of the first year. The revenues are expected to increase at the inflation rate of 4 percent. Production costs at the end of the first year will be $44,000, in nominal terms, and they are expected to increase at 5 percent per year. The real discount rate is 7 percent. The corporate tax rate is 40 percent. Calculate the NPV of the project. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Question:

1. Assume the data in tab 11.a (Cancer mortality) represent data on cancer mortality rates for the communities in your hospital's service area. Perform a statistical test to determine if the average cancer mortality in the rural communities is different from the average mortality in the urban communities. (Assume the mortality rates are normally distributed.) Offer an interpretation of your results. Remember to describe the mean cancer mortality rates. (4 points)
2. Does this problem call for a one-tailed test or a two-tailed test? (1 point)
3. Using the data in tab 11.b (Weight loss), test whether the average weight of patients attending your new weight loss clinic has changed as a result of attending the clinic. That is, is the average weight of patients after attending the clinic different from the average weight before attending? Report the average weight of these patients before and after attending the clinic and interpret the results of the statistical test(s) performed. (5 points)
4. Apply the appropriate t-test to compare the mean time required to process clinical records before and after the introduction of a new method for this work. Note, assume the same records were processed before and after the introduction of the new procedure. Using data in Tab 12. (Processing time), evaluate the following:
5. Test whether the intervention designed by a clever intern to reduce the time required to process billing forms made a difference. (That is, test whether the mean processing time after the intervention is different from the mean before the intervention.) Report your results and offer an interpretation of the statistical test(s) performed. (5 points)
6. Would your conclusion be different if you were asked to test whether mean processing time after the intervention was less than mean processing time before the intervention? Describe how you interpret your results under these conditions. (Hint: this is a one-tailed problem.) (5 points)
7. Choose the appropriate t-test for your evaluation and decide if each hypothesis requires a one- or a two-tailed test. Assume the data in Tab 13.(ER Wait times) are the time spent waiting to be seen by a physician for two groups of patients. One group were considered to have true emergencies and the other group were triaged as requiring only urgent care.
8. Test the hypothesis that the time spent waiting does not depend on the reason for admission to the ER (true emergency v. needing urgent care). Report your results and interpret the statistical test. Does this hypothesis call for a two-tailed test or a one-tailed test? (5 points)
9. Test the hypothesis that waiting time for patients with true emergencies was less than the waiting time for patients only needing urgent care. (Note the specific hypothesis to be tested here.) Interpret the results of the proper statistical test and justify your answer. Does this hypothesis call for a one-tailed or a two-tailed test? Please justify your answer.

The marketing team at an internet music site wants a better understanding of who their customers are. They send out a survey to 25 customers​ (and use an incentive of​ $50 worth of downloads to guarantee a high response​ rate) asking for demographic information. One of the variables is the​ customer's age. For the 25​ customers, the ages are shown to the below. Complete parts​ a) through​ d).

For storage options a, b, and c, what volume of storage tank for hydrogen would be needed for a hydrogen fuel cell car to have the same delivered transport energy (that is, total vehicle-km of travel) as a conventional car with a full 50 litre petrol tank (note that the actual volume of the tank is more than 50 litre). a- If the hydrogen is stored as compressed gas at a pressure of 350 bar (1 bar = 101 kPa) b- If the hydrogen is stored cryogenically as a liquid c- If the hydrogen is stored in a metal hydride in solid form Important assumption and information required to answer this question: • The energy content of hydrogen (HHV) is 142 MJ/kg (~40 kWh/kg)The average energy efficiency of the fuel cells used is 44% (based on HHV), and that of the electric motors 86%. • Note that the following gravimetric and volumetric energy storage figures are based on 50% fuel cell energy efficiency, but the energy efficiency that you need to use (based on question 2) in order to answer this question is 44%, HHV. Assumptions for the volumetric and gravimetric electrical energy densities of different hydrogen energy storage options based on 50% electrical energy efficiency (HHV) for the fuel cell: - High-pressure hydrogen at 350 bar: 0.75 kWhe/kg and 0.35 kWhe/litre - Cryogenic hydrogen storage 1.46 kWhe/kg and 0.89 kWhe/litre - Metal hydride 0.5 kWhe/kg and 0.5 kWhe/litre.

Having thought about Mr. James’s suggestion, you consider several options as an estimate of lost profits. These include 1) the full year, 2) the last six months only, 3) a weighted average that gives twice the weight to the last six months as to the first six months, or 4) some other weighted average. Which method do you think gives the most accurate estimate of lost profits?
