Describe Density Waves in traffic

Imagine you are driving one such car. Describe what happens before you encounter the truck, as you wait behind it, and after you pass it. Address your speed, and the "density" of the traffic around you.

a) before any extra NaOH has been add
b) after 50mL of NaOH
c) add 100mL of NaOH
d) add 150mL of NaOH

Which is NOT a retrieving strategy?

Which is not a possible cause of mental retardation?

A buffer solution contains 0.444 M NH4Br and 0.365 M NH3 (ammonia). Determine the pH change when 0.084 mol NaOH is added to 1.00 L of the buffer. pH after addition − pH before addition = pH change =

Please answer all a,b,c,d!!!

Assume calendar year-ends for all companies and that all errors are material.

a. Quigley Down Under Co. bought a machine on January 1, 2017 for $1,400,000. The machine had an estimated residual value of $120,000 and a ten-year life. “Machine expense” was debited on the purchase date for $1,400,000. Quigley uses straight-line depreciation for all assets. The error was discovered on June 15, 2018 after the books had been closed for 2017.

What journal entry (if any) should Arrival record on 2/1/18 related to this error?

True or false : Arrival should restate its income statements and balance sheets for all prior years affected by this error and reported in the 2018 annual report.

TRUE                                               FALSE

c. On December 1, 2016 Breaking Good, Inc. paid $20,000 in advance for insurance services beginning 12/1/16 and lasting for 12 months. On that date, Breaking Good debited insurance expense for the full amount. This error is discovered on May 20, 2018 (after the books for 2017 were closed).

What journal entry (if any) should Breaking Good record on 5/20/18 related to this error? (ignore taxes)

True or false : Breaking Good should restate its income statements and balance sheets for all prior years affected by this error and reported in the 2018 annual report.

TRUE                                               FALSE

d. Person Family, Inc. began operations on 1/1/15, and used the LIFO method for inventory accounting. During 2017, the company decided to switch from LIFO to FIFO. The following income statement information (LIFO and FIFO) is available for the years 2015–2017:

Workers are compensated by firms with “benefits” in addition to wages and salaries. The most prominent benefit offered by many firms is health insurance. Suppose that in 2000, workers at one steel plant were paid $35 per hour and in addition received health benefits at the rate of $7 per hour. Also suppose that by 2010 workers at that plant were paid $36.75 per hour but received $31.5 in health insurance benefits.

a. By what percentage did total compensation (wages plus benefits) change at this plant from 2000 to 2010?

total compensation increased or decreased(choose one) by _______ percent

What was the approximate average annual percentage change in total compensation?

b. By what percentage did wages change at this plant from 2000 to 2010?

wages increased or decresed (choose one) by ________ percent

What was the approximate average annual percentage change in wages?

c. If workers value a dollar of health benefits as much as they value a dollar of wages, by what total percentage will they feel that their incomes have risen over this time period?

What if they only consider wages when calculating their incomes?

incomes increased or decreased (choose one) by _____ percent

d. Is it possible for workers to feel as though their wages are stagnating even if total compensation is rising?

Annual and Average Returns for Stocks, Bonds, and T-Bills, 1950 to 2015.

You have a portfolio with an asset allocation of 50 percent stocks, 26 percent long-term Treasury bonds, and 24 percent T-bills. Use these weights and the returns given in the above table to compute the return of the portfolio in the year 2010 and each year since. Then compute the average annual return and standard deviation of the portfolio. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Use the following equations to calculate aspects of the incidence of a tax on demand:

Qd = 720 - 205P
Qs = -170 + 150P
Qs (with tax) = -220 + 150P

Find:

Q before tax =
Q after tax =
P before tax =
Pc =
Pp =
Tax rate (t) =
Tax revenue (TR) =
TR (coming from consumer surplus) =
TR (coming from producer surplus) =
Deadweight Loss (DW) =
DW (coming from consumer surplus) =
DW (coming from producer surplus) =
