Peloton is preparing for an IPO. (Initial Public Offering is when a company begins selling stock to the public.) The maker of video-streaming exercise is expected to select its slate of underwriters soon and on track to go public sometimes this year. Peloton is expected to seek a valuation in excess of the roughly $4 billion estimate last year after a fund-raising round led by venture-capital firm TCV. 2019 looks to be a busy year for high-profile IPOs. Uber, Lyft and Slack are also preparing for public offerings. Peloton, founded in 2012, makes stationary bikes that the company sells for prices ranging from $2,245 to nearly $2,700 when packaged with various accessories. Many of Peloton's customers use the bikes at home, paying about $39 a month to stream live classes that the company produces using its own instructors.

2011
All the way back in 2011, Dominik and Thomas arrived in Berlin, intent on starting a new and disruptive
business. With a love of healthy food, nutrition, cooking, and a desire to make access to healthy food
as easy as possible for as many people as possible - starting a Food at Home business seemed the
natural choice.
2012
After examining business models from Sweden to Japan to very local ideas, they and a group of
like-minded individuals formulated the recipe for HelloFresh. The team started early in 2012 packing
shopping bags in Berlin, Amsterdam and London with a view to target the highest density population
areas in Europe. Quite quickly, they started getting requests from people outside those areas who all
wanted to become a part of the HelloFresh family. Wanting to serve as many people as possible, the
team developed a logistics model that enabled them to deliver to every single household across a
given country.
2013
The HelloFresh product started to rapidly gain in popularity, as subscribers shared the excitement
about their weekly boxes, with friends and colleagues. Subscriber referrals accelerated, as it became
clear that HelloFresh had finally solved the “What’s for dinner tonight” problem for its subscribers.
2014
Having launched on the East Coast of the U.S in December 2012, HelloFresh moved to cover the
entire country in September 2014. Over the short time since then, HelloFresh has grown rapidly to
become one of the largest players in this market.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that 9.6% of adults aged 20 to 24 years were unemployed in April 2015. Suppose that Jacqui believes that in her city the unemployment rate is higher than the reported proportion. She determines the unemployment status of 450 randomly selected adults in the given age range. She decides to conduct a z-test for the proportion p of unemployed adults in her town aged 20 to 24 years old.

Determine the power to reject the null hypothesis at a significance level of α=0.05 if the true proportion of unemployed adults aged 20 to 24 is 0.110. Give your answer to two decimal places, rounding if necessary.

1. The city of Gadsden, Alabama (where Noah’s parents live) is considering replacing one of the bridges that cross the Coosa River that runs through town. The primary benefits of replacing the current bridge are reductions in commute time, traffic, and better foot traffic safety for people walking across the bridge. The expected cost of the bridge is $8 million. The expected benefits from primary sources over the coming years are $4 million immediately, and $1 million each year over the next 4 years. Discuss the cost-benefit analysis associated with this project. Is it possible to improve the cost-benefit analysis? Is anything missing from it?. Should the city go forward with the project?
