At a playground you let your kid sister (30 kg) kneel on the surface (near the edge) of a 2 meter diameter merry-go-round, of mass 300 kg. You push the merry-go-round along the edge, so that it constantly accelerates from rest to a final speed of 1.5 rotations per second at the end of a 20 sec interval. Friction is negligible. b) How much force did you apply in the direction tangent to the circumference of the merry-go-round, at the point of contact (in Newtons), during the 20 sec time interval? c) After it comes up to speed, you stop pushing and the merry-go-round continues to run at a constant rate of 1.5 rotations per second (remember that we are neglecting friction). What is the magnitude and direction of your sister’s acceleration, if any? d) Your kid sister now walks across the center of the merry-go-round, to a point a distance 0.5 meters from the center “on the other side”. What is the new angular velocity of the merry-go-round (in rad/sec) when she is 0.5 meters from the center “on the other side”? e) For a rigid body undergoing rotation, write down a symbolic expression for its rotational kinetic energy, in terms of the magnitude of its angular momentum L, and its moment of inertia I about the rotation axis. f) What is the total change in the kinetic energy of the merry-go-round, including your sister, as a result of her walk (in Joules)? g) In the part of her walk from the center to the other side: (i) is the change in kinetic energy of the merry-go-round (including your sister) positive or negative? Explain. (ii) is the change in your sister’s kinetic energy positive or negative? Explain.

Brookdale Hospital hired an inexperienced controller early in 20X4. Near the end of 20X4, the board of directors decided to conduct a major fund-raising campaign. They wished to have the December 31, 20X4, statement of financial position for Brookdale fully conform with current generally accepted principles for hospitals. The trial balance prepared by the controller at December 31, 20X4, follows:

Your analysis of the contribution’s receivable as of December 31, 20X4, determined that there were unrecognized contributions for the following:

Unrestricted use$40,300 Cancer research 10,800 Purchase of equipment 20,500 Permanently restricted endowment principal 32,000 Total$103,600

2. Short-term investments at year-end consist of $151,600 of funds without donor restrictions and $50,000 of funds restricted for future cancer research. All of the long-term investments are held in the permanently restricted endowment fund.
3. Land is carried at its current market value of $121,600. The original owner purchased the land for $70,500, and at the time of donation to the hospital, it had an appraised value of $97,000.
4. Buildings purchased 11 years ago for $610,500 had an estimated useful life of 30 years. Equipment costing $152,400 was purchased 7 years ago and had an expected life of 10 years. The controller had improperly increased the reported values of the buildings and equipment to their current fair value of $935,700 and had incorrectly computed the accumulated depreciation.
5. The board of directors voted on December 29, 20X4, to designate $101,700 of funds without donor restrictions invested in short-term investments for developing a drug rehabilitation center.

Phil Nelson, 19 year old, was brought to the ER following a near-drowning. He was not breathing when the paramedics pulled him out of the lake. CPR was given and he awoke. Upon arrival to the ER, he was extremely anxious with a BP of 118/62 and respiratory rate of 26. He was alert and oriented X 3 and the nurse auscultated crackles along with expiratory wheezing throughout all lung fields. A 40% face mask was applied and his ABGs were:

pH 7.48          PaCO₂   28      PaO₂ 48          O₂sat 90%      HCO₃   24. All other labs were normal.

Interpretation of this ABG __________________________________________________

Phil remained stable for the next 24 hours but became dyspneic, tachypneic, tachycardic and developed progressive hypoxemia. Despite the ICU nurse increasing the FIO₂, his ABGs continued to deteriorate. On 100% nonrebreather mask, his ABGs were:

pH 7.50          PaCO₂   28      PaO₂ 48          O₂sat 77%      HCO₃   24

Interpretation of this ABG __________________________________________________

He was intubated and ventilated with the following settings:            AC 12, FIO₂ 60%, TV 800ml, and PEEP of 5. Post intubation X-ray showing proper ET placement but bilateral diffuse, patchy infiltrates were noted. A pulmonary artery catheter was inserted and the following readings were obtained:

PA 25/10                   pH 7.48

PAWP 8                     PCO₂ 30

CVP 6                        PaO₂ 58

CO 7.5                        O₂ sat 89%

                                    HCO₃ 24

Interpretation of this ABG __________________________________________________

Phil Nelson was diagnosed with ARDS.

1.     What is ARDS? What is the diagnostic criterion for ARDS?

2.     What clinical conditions are commonly associated with ARDS?

3.     What are the major pathophysiologic alterations in ARDS?

4.     What are the clinical signs and symptoms of ARDS?

5.     What is the usual cause of hypoxemia in ARDS?

6.     What is the treatment for an intrapulmonary shunt?

7.     How can PEEP affect O₂ transport?

Phil Nelson’s ABGs were not improving as expected. The physician ordered a PEEP of 10. Thirty minutes later another set of ABGs were drawn but the PaCO₂ remained 32 and the PaO₂ only increased to 65. The physician increased the PEEP to 15 and the PaO₂ increased to 88 and the O₂ sat increased to 95%. However, the nurse performed a cardiac output which was reported as 3.8. Why?

8.     The physician was hesitant to increase the FIO₂ further than 60%. What was the physician concerned about?

9.     Phil was restless and the nurse notes that he is “bucking” the vent. Why is this a concern? What should the nurse assess for?

Despite the typical medical/nursing interventions, the client has not improved, and the physician orders a neuromuscular blockade. What is this therapy and why is it used?

10. What are the most essential nursing responsibilities when caring for a mechanically ventilated client receiving neuromuscular blockade?

11. Morphine was prescribed to Phil’s drug regimen. Why? What other medications do you anticipate the physician ordering for a patient who is on neuromuscular blockade?

12. Phil’s BP drops to 90/58 and his CVP to 2, and his PAWP to 4. Urine output is less than 30ml/hr. What therapy do you anticipate?

13. Phil is started on enteral feedings. Why is nutrition important in the patient with ARDS?

14. What is the leading cause of death in patients with ARDS?

15. Identify and prioritize three of the most important nursing diagnoses that are appropriate in caring for Phil.

Roadrunner Co. is building a waste landfill in the desert near Phoenix, AZ. Roadrunner estimates that this landfill will be in operation for 4 years, will cost $175,000,000 to build, and will generate $600 million in revenues during its useful life. Federal law requires that Roadrunner decommission and decontaminate the site at the end of its useful life. A team of engineers has studied the decontamination procedure and has estimated that Roadrunner will have to spend $20,000,000 on the decommissioning process when the landfill is shut down four years from now. Roadrunner's credit-adjusted risk-free rate of interest is 10%; the PV factor for 4 periods at 10% equals 0.683013.

Required:

• In accordance with U.S. GAAP, how should Roadrunner Co. account for the costs associated with the decommissioning process? Prepare the journal entry required and prepare an amortization table for the asset retirement obligation.

• How are the costs associated with the decommissioning process reflected on the income statement? Explain how this accounting treatment improves the matching process.

Near the end of 2019, the management of Dimsdale Sports Co., a merchandising company, prepared the following estimated balance sheet for December 31, 2019.

To prepare a master budget for January, February, and March of 2020, management gathers the following information.

1. The company’s single product is purchased for $30 per unit and resold for $59 per unit. The expected inventory level of 4,750 units on December 31, 2019, is more than management’s desired level, which is 20% of the next month’s expected sales (in units). Expected sales are January, 7,500 units; February, 8,500 units; March, 10,750 units; and April, 10,000 units.
2. Cash sales and credit sales represent 20% and 80%, respectively, of total sales. Of the credit sales, 59% is collected in the first month after the month of sale and 41% in the second month after the month of sale. For the December 31, 2019, accounts receivable balance, $125,000 is collected in January 2020 and the remaining $395,000 is collected in February 2020.
3. Merchandise purchases are paid for as follows: 20% in the first month after the month of purchase and 80% in the second month after the month of purchase. For the December 31, 2019, accounts payable balance, $70,000 is paid in January 2020 and the remaining $290,000 is paid in February 2020.

One Trick Pony (OTP) incorporated and began operations near the end of the year, resulting in the following post-closing balances at December 31: Cash $ 18,620 Accounts Receivable 9,650 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 900* Inventory 2,800 Unearned Revenue (30 units) 4,350 Accounts Payable 1,300 Notes Payable (long-term) 15,000 Common Stock 5,000 Retained Earnings 4,520 * credit balance. The following information is relevant to the first month of operations in the following year: OTP will sell inventory at $145 per unit. OTP’s January 1 inventory balance consists of 35 units at a total cost of $2,800. OTP’s policy is to use the FIFO method, recorded using a perpetual inventory system. In December, OTP received a $4,350 payment for 30 units to be delivered in January; this obligation was recorded in Unearned Revenue. Rent of $1,300 was unpaid and recorded in Accounts Payable at December 31. OTP’s note payable matures in three years, and accrues interest at a 10% annual rate. January Transactions 1. Included in OTP’s January 1 Accounts Receivable balance is a $1,500 balance due from Jeff Letrotski. Jeff is having cash flow problems and cannot pay the $1,500 balance at this time. On 01/01, OTP arranges with Jeff to convert the $1,500 balance to a 6-month note, at 12% annual interest. Jeff signs the promissory note, which indicates the principal and all interest will be due and payable to OTP on July 1 of this year. 2. OTP paid a $500 insurance premium on 01/02, covering the month of January; the payment is recorded directly as an expense. 3. OTP purchased an additional 150 units of inventory from a supplier on account on 01/05 at a total cost of $9,000, with terms 2/15, n/30. 4. OTP paid a courier $300 cash on 01/05 for same-day delivery of the 150 units of inventory. 5. The 30 units that OTP’s customer paid for in advance in December are delivered to the customer on 01/06. 6. On 01/07, OTP paid the amount necessary to settle the balance owed to the supplier for the 1/05 purchase of inventory (in 3). 7. Sales of 40 units of inventory occuring during the period of 01/07 – 01/10 are recorded on 01/10. The sales terms are 2/10, n/30. 8. Collected payments on 01/14 from sales to customers recorded on 01/10. The discount was properly taken by customers on $5,800 of these credit sales; consequently, OTP received less than $5,800. 9. OTP paid the first 2 weeks wages to the employees on 01/16. The total paid is $2,200. 10. Wrote off a $1,000 customer’s account balance on 01/18. OTP uses the allowance method, not the direct write-off method. 11. Paid $2,600 on 01/19 for December and January rent. See the earlier bullets regarding the December portion. The January portion will expire soon, so it is charged directly to expense. 12. OTP recovered $400 cash on 01/26 from the customer whose account had previously been written off on 01/18. 13. An unrecorded $400 utility bill for January arrived on 01/27. It is due on 02/15 and will be paid then. 14. Sales of 65 units of inventory during the period of 01/10 – 01/28, with terms 2/10, n/30, are recorded on 01/28. 15. Of the sales recorded on 1/28, 15 units are returned to OTP on 01/30. The inventory is not damaged and can be resold. 16. On 01/31, OTP records the $2,200 employee salary that is owed but will be paid February 1. 17. OTP uses the aging method to estimate and adjust for uncollectible accounts on 01/31. All of OTP’s accounts receivable fall into a single aging category, for which 8% is estimated to be uncollectible. (Update the balances of both relevant accounts prior to determining the appropriate adjustment, and round your calculation to the nearest dollar.) 18. Accrue interest for January on the note payable on 01/31. 19. Accrue interest for January on Jeff Letrotski’s note on 01/31 (see 1).

Can someone help me with the income statement and the balance sheet for this question?
