| Pay apartment deposit on September 2 (to be returned December 15) | 500 |
| Part-time job earnings each month (net of taxes) | 880 |

b. Are the four monthly budgets that are
presented prepared as static budgets or flexible budgets?
c. What are the budget implications for Craig Kovar?
Craig can see that his present plan sufficient cash. If Craig did not budget but went ahead with the original plan, he would be $ at the end of December, with no time left to adjust.

During the course of a year, the labor force consists of the same 1,165 people. Of these 22 lack skills that employers desire and hence remain unemployed throughout the year. At the same time, every month during the year, 24 different people become unemployed, and 24 other different people who were unemployed find jobs. There is no cyclical unemployment.

| The budgeting process for a
midwestern college resulted in expense forecasts for the coming
year (in $ millions) of $9, $10, $11, $12, and $13. Because the
actual expenses are unknown, the following respective probabilities
are assigned: 0.27, 0.15, 0.23, 0.16, and 0.19. Show the probability distribution for the expense forecast.
What is the expected value of the expense forecast for the
coming year (to 2 decimals)? What is the variance of the expense forecast for the coming year
(to 2 decimals)? If income projections for the year are estimated at $12 million, how much profit does the college expect to make (report your answer in millions of dollars, to 2 decimals)? |
