Consider the following information about Stocks A and B: Rate of Return if State Occurs State of Probability of Economy State of Economy Stock A Stock B Recession 0.26 0.03 − 0.34 Normal 0.56 0.20 0.14 Irrational exuberance 0.18 0.09 0.54 The market risk premium is 5 percent, and the risk-free rate is 3 percent. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16)) The standard deviation on Stock A's return is percent, and the Stock A beta is . The standard deviation on Stock B's return is percent, and the Stock B beta is . Therefore, based on the stock's systematic risk/beta, which Stock is "riskier".

Describe allosteric regulation of enzyme activity. How does allosteric inhibition differ from other modes of regulation, and how can these work in concert to finely regulate enzyme activity? Provide an example, describe in detail, and use diagrams to help illustrate your point.

1) Describe and explain Davey’s (1969) J-curve theory of the “revolution of rising expectations.” What controversial conclusion does the theory suggest about the use (or non-use) of government means to achieve group equality?

2) List and briefly explain the findings of Pettigrew’s (1959; 1960) study of conformity and prejudice.  Who is most likely to express prejudice?  Who is least likely?  Why?

3)  Describe the relationship between religious orientation and prejudice.  Of what relevance are intrinsic and extrinsic orientations?  Explain “quest” and “fundamentalism,” and describe why they’re important.  Be sure to define all terms in your answer.

4) List and briefly explain at least four of the traits found in the authoritarian personality as measured by the F-Scale (Adorno et al. 1950)?  Which of these traits may also be found in Altemeyer’s (1998) “right-wing authoritarian”?  How does Altemeyer’s theory differ from that of Adorno et al.?  Be specific.

(b) Professor GeniusAtCalculus has two lecture sections (A and B) of the same 4th year Advanced Calculus (AMA 4301) course in Semester 2. She wants to investigate whether section A students maybe ”smarter” than section B students by comparing their perfor- mances in the midterm test. A random sample of 12 students were taken from section A, with mean midterm test score of 78.8 and standard deviation 8.5; and a random sample of 9 students were taken from section B, with mean midterm test score of 86 and standard deviation 9.3. Assume the population standard deviations of midterm test scores for both sections are the same. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the difference in midterm test scores of the two sections. Based on the sample midterm test scores from the two sections, can Professor GeniusAtCalculus conclude that there is any evidence that one section of students are ”smarter” than the other section? Justify your conclusions.

(c) The COVID-19 (coronavirus) mortality rate of a country is defined as the ratio of the number of deaths due to COVID-19 divided by the number of (confirmed) cases of COVID-19 in that country. Suppose we want to investigate if there is any difference between the COVID-19 mortality rate in the US and the UK. On April 18, 2020, out of a sample of 671,493 cases of COVID-19 in the US, there was 33,288 deaths; and out of a sample of 109,754 cases of COVID-19 in the UK, there was 14,606 deaths. What is the 92% confidence interval in the true difference in the mortality rates between the two countries? What can you conclude about the difference in the mortality rates between the US and the UK? Justify your conclusions. [8 marks]
