1. Consider the three stocks in the following table.  Pt represents price at time t, and Qt represents shares outstanding at time t. Stock C splits two-for-one in the last period.

Can you show work with steps and answer c please

                        P 0       Q 0     P 1      Q 1     P 2      Q 2

            A         80        100      85        100      90        100

            B         60        200      45        200      40        200

            C         110      200      120      200      60        400

c. Calculate the rate of return of the price-weighted index for the second period (t=1 to t=2).

Consider the three stocks in the following table. P_t represents price at time t, and Q_t represents shares outstanding at time t. Stock C splits two-for-one in the last period.

Calculate the first-period rates of return on the following indexes of the three stocks: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

a. A market value–weighted index

As the quality engineer for a small chain of fast food restaurants called McDowell’s (They’ve got the Big Mac, we’ve got the Big Mick), you’re interested in describing the consistency of the foodstuffs at a particular branch. In particular, you want to develop graphical and numerical representations of the (i) weight of and (ii) number of fries in a small bag of McDowell’s fries. You’ll find a sample of 32 bags in the below table.

a. Provide numerical descriptions of the weights and numbers of fries in the sample.

b. Calculate and interpret 95% confidence intervals for the weight of a bag of small fries and the number of fries in a bag of small fries.

c. If the target value set by McDowell’s for the weight of a small order of fries is 2.61 ounces, what might you conclude based on your sample?

d. As a quality control engineer, what could you do with such information?

The Jordan Company has two divisions and manufactures one type of watch. The two divisions are the production Division and the Package & Delivery Division. The production Division manufactures watches and then sells them to the Package & Delivery Division, which packs the watches and sells them to retailers. The market price for the Package & Delivery Division to purchase this watch is £40.

Notes: Fixed costs shown above are per pair for 100,000 units.

Required:

a) If Production Division has excess capacity to produce 100,000 watches which it cannot sell externally, must it negotiate a transfer price below £40 per watch internally? If the production division cannot negotiate the appropriate transfer price with internal package and delivery division, what is the consequence of this? Explain

A firm is considering replacing the existing industrial air conditioning unit. They will pick one of two units. The first, the AC360, costs $26,225.00 to install, $5,116.00 to operate per year for 7 years at which time it will be sold for $7,059.00. The second, RayCool 8, costs $41,570.00 to install, $2,133.00 to operate per year for 5 years at which time it will be sold for $8,964.00. The firm’s cost of capital is 5.32%. What is the equivalent annual cost of the AC360?
