The data for the per capita demand for chicken ( pounds per household) in the United States from 1990 to 2013 is given in the table below.

475 = unique initial income number.

AVG = AVERAGE

The data suggests that the per capita demand for chicken (Qd) depends on the following factors:

Pc = Price of chicken ( $ per capita)

I = real disposable income per capita ($)

Ad = Advertising dollars per capita

Pj = price of juice – ( a related product) per capita ($)

Using regression analysis, the attached data and a linear functional form, estimate the demand for CHICKEN.

Include the computation and explanation of the following in your report:

1. Write your regression equation i.e. demand function
2. Enter data provided into excel or statplus as per instructions attached and run your regression / derive your coefficient estimates. Interpret all the coefficients in % ( .i.e if PC = - 0.06768, interpret as: - 6.77%
3. Use the average values for the independent variables and your estimated demand function, compute the demand for CHICKEN in a typical market.
4. Define and interpret the standard error of the estimate AND estimate the range within which actual demand for Chicken is expected to fall with a 95% confidence level.
5. Define the coefficient of determination (R-squared). What percentage of demand variation is explained by this model?
6. Define and explain the usefulness of the F-Statistics
7. Are the coefficient’s statistically significant? i.e. does each of the independent variables have a significant effect on the dependent variable? Explain using t-stats.
8. Calculate and interpret the point price, cross price, point advertising and point income elasticity of demand for CHICKEN.

Given the following timed data, convert mL 0.04 M NaOH to concentration of HCl, [HCl]_t, in 10 mL aliquots of the reaction of t-butyl chloride in isopropanol/water. Then convert [HCl]_t to concentration of t-butyl chloride, [RX]_t. Using a program such as Microsoft Excel, plot (Scatter Chart) time versus natural log of concentration of t-butyl chloride at time zero over concentration of t-butyl chloride at each time, ln([RX]₀/[RX]_t). Determine the slope of your plot as instructed in this video. The slope is the rate constant of first order kinetics as given by equation 20.2 of your text. This is equivalent to Figure 20.1 of your text but we don't have to use the factor 2.303, ln(10), because we are using natural versus base 10 logs. Before the advent of calculators, people actually used tables to look up log₁₀ values! Hint: [RX]₀ = ? so that [RX]_t = [RX]₀ - [HCl]_t which is the equation at the bottom of page 322 of your text?

The company’s profit and loss is subject to many risk factors, such as the price change of oil and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. The company will benefit US$900 for each 1 cent increase in the price per bbl of oil. As the market price of oil is quite volatile, the company is considering using some strategies to manage its risk exposure. One way to hedge these exposures is to use futures contracts. There are futures contracts traded in the COMEX division of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Group. In your consulting report, please address the following questions: 1) Outline the potential financial risks and operational risks faced by Gemoil and explain these risks in details.

Market research has indicated that customers are likely to bypass Roma tomatoes that weigh less than 70 grams. A produce company produces Roma tomatoes that average 78.0 grams with a standard deviation of 5.2 grams.

Suppose there were 3 undersized tomatoes in the random sample of 20. What is the probability of getting at least 3 undersized tomatoes in a random sample of 20 if the company's claim is true? Do you believe the company's claim? Why or why not?

Q1. Best Value Company has provided the following information:

Current Annual Sales (Credit Sales): P3,600,000

Terms: 45 Days

Interest Rate or Cost of Finance: 15% p.a.

Potential New Policy:

Analyst 1 has suggested to offer a discount to customers with this policy: 1/15 net 45. Analyst 1 expects that 50% of customers will take advantage of the discount. Analyst 2 however says that customers will not be enticed and for 50% of customers to take advantage of the discount, the policy should be 2/15 net 45. Should the company follow the recommendation of Analyst 2? Why or why not? Show your solutions.

Q2. Why do you think an increasing accounts receivables balance (without the corresponding increase in sales) is a cost to a business?

Q3. The company's end of month receivables is 70% of monthly sales. From January to April, sales amount to P100,000 each month. For the rest of the year (May to December), sales amount to P50,000 each month. The company extends credit terms to customers up to a maximum of 20 days. Assuming 360 days in a year and 30 days in a month, what can you say about the company's receivables management? Does the company need to improve its collections? Please show your solutions.
