Suppose you won the lottery and had two options: (1) receiving $0.1 million or (2) taking a gamble in which, at the flip of a coin, you receive $0.2 million if a head comes up but receive zero if a tail comes up.

  1. What is the expected value of the gamble? Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $550,000 should be entered as 0.55.
    million
  2. Would you take the sure $0.1 million or the gamble?
    -Select-Take $0.1 millionTake the gambleItem 2
  3. If you chose the sure $0.1 million, would that indicate that you are a risk averter or a risk seeker?
    -Select-Risk averterRisk seekerItem 3
  4. Suppose the payoff was actually $0.1 million - that was the only choice. You now face the choice of investing it in a U.S. Treasury bond that will return $108,000 at the end of a year or a common stock that has a 50-50 chance of being worthless or worth $240,000 at the end of the year.
    1. The expected profit on the T-bond investment is $8,000. What is the expected dollar profit on the stock investment? Round your answer to two decimal places. Write out your answer completely. For example, 0.25 million should be entered as 250,000.
      $
    2. The expected rate of return on the T-bond investment is 8%. What is the expected rate of return on the stock investment? Round your answer to two decimal places.
      %
    3. Would you invest in the bond or stock?
      -Select-BondStockThis depends on the individual's degree of risk aversion.Item 6
    4. Exactly how large would the expected profit (or the expected rate of return) have to be on the stock investment to make you invest in the stock, given the 8% return on the bond? Round your answer to two decimal places. If no exact answer can be obtained, enter 0.
      %
    5. How might your decision be affected if, rather than buying one stock for $0.1 million, you could construct a portfolio consisting of 100 stocks with $1,000 invested in each? Each of these stocks has the same return characteristics as the one stock - that is, a 50-50 chance of being worth zero or $2,400 at year-end.
      1. Investing in a portfolio of stocks would definitely be an deterioration over investing in the single stock.
      2. Investing in a portfolio of stocks would definitely be an improvement over investing in the single stock.
      3. The situation would be unchanged.

CRC is the second most common cancer diagnoses in industrialized nations. Risk of developing colon cancer...

CRC is the second most common cancer diagnoses in industrialized nations. Risk of developing colon cancer increases with age. A family history of colon cancer is another major risk factor. Individuals with one first-degree relative diagnosed after age 50 have a relative risk of 1.6. That increase to 2.6 if the relative was diagnosed before age 50. The presence of two first degree relatives diagnosed with colon cancer increase the risk further. Relative Risk is 3.5 if both realties were diagnosed after age 50; RR = 5.6 if either or both were diagnosed before age 50.

You are a primary care provider and one of your patients, Mr. Jones, is a 50-year-old male with no history of colon cancer. He has heard about the recommendations for colon cancer screening and has some questions for you. How commonly is colon cancer diagnosed in the U.S.? Is Mr. Jones at increased risk? The CDC reports that 136,717 cases of colon cancer are diagnosed annually. Of those 136,717 cases of CRC, 70,223 were male and 66,494 were female. Of the US population, 148,640,424 are male and 152,711,352 are female.

Mr. Jones is curious as to whether his gender places him at increased risk. Of those 136,717 cases of CRC, 70,223 were male and 66,494 were female. Mr. Jones is also curious about whether his old age places him at increased risk for CRC.

4. (The last two questions are linked as a part 1 and 2, and they are each worth 4 points). You work in the HR department of a large corporation. Productivity is going down and the corporation is losing money, and everyone knows that a major reason for this is: many workers are showing up late or not at all while their colleagues are swiping their employee cards for them. For part 1, use the Fraud Triangle to identify why employees are doing this (you can be a little creative and invent some more details for the case) and propose a short-term solution that will solve this problem quickly.

5. For part 2 of the same situation, use the Fraud Triangle to deal with the issue in a ‘deeper’ way and propose a long-term solution that will solve the problem and create even more benefits for the corporation going into the future.

Jessica is a recent graduate of Brenau University’s business school entrepreneurship program. The business plan that she created before she graduated was for a business developing websites for individuals and commercial businesses. Friends and family provided funding for the start-up, and she has been in business for the last two and a half years.

Jessica had learned about the balanced scorecard in her accounting classes and has been applying some of the techniques. Her vision for this business is to provide clients with high quality websites that receive a relatively high numbers of hits. Recently, word-of mouth advertising had led to more requests for websites with creative animated graphics. As part of her balanced scorecard, she tracked the following measures over the last two years for her individual clients:

                                                                                              20x1                20x2

Average revenue per individual client                              $2,000             $1,500

Average time from start to finish (business days)           10 days            13 days

Average site ranking on top two search engines                     15                    21

Total revenue                                                                   $80,000           $78,000

Total labor cost                                                                $20,000           $22,000

Utilities cost (electricity and phone)                                 $2,100             $2,400

Number of individual clients                                                    40                    52

Employee turnover                                                                     1                      0

a.   Classify each performance measure according to one of the four balanced scorecard perspectives. Explain your reasoning.

b.   Analyze the change in each performance measure from 20X1 to 20X2. Give one possible reason for the change.

A four-wheel cart of mass M = 95 kg is moving along a horizontal surface with a constant velocity V = 3.5 m/s relative to the ground. A person of mass m1 = 65 kg carrying a backpack of m2 = 8 kg runs and catches up to the cart, and then jumps onto the cart. Just before landing on the cart, the person is moving parallel to the ground and the velocity of the center of mass of the system including the person, backpack and cart is VCM = 5 m/s.

What is the speed of the person just before landing on the cart?

v0 = 5.3 m/s

v0 = 12 m/s

v0 = 0.45 m/s

v0 = 7 m/s

v0 = 8.8 m/s

2)

What is the horizontal momentum of the person after landing on the cart?

pf = 325 kg m/s

pf = 455 kg m/s

pf = 228 kg m/s

3)

Compare the total kinetic energy of the system including the person, backpack and cart before the person has landed on the cart to after.

KEbefore = KEafter

KEbefore > KEafter

KEbefore < KEafter

4)

The person now holds the backpack off the back of the cart and lets go. The backpack falls to the ground. What happens to the speed of the cart when the backpack is dropped?
