Why may controversy be effective as a marketing campaign? What are some examples (EXCLUDING the Colin Kaepernick campaign) of when it went well? What are some examples of when it did not go well, and why did that happen? What do you think the teams for those flawed campaigns could have done differently to ensure success?

Please explain with detail.

On pages 15-21 and 22, the text notes that individuals who incur an alternative minimum tax liability attributable to timing differences are entitled to a credit against their regular tax liabilities incurred in future years, and gives a brief conceptual description of how the credit is computed.

What form is used to compute the amount of the credit earned by an individual for a taxable year?

What is the formula used on that form to compute the amount of the credit earned? Describe in enough detail so that the reader can understand what the form is intended to accomplish.

According to the IRS forms, what items are considered to be permanent differences between regular taxable income and alternative minimum taxable income, so that AMT attributable to those items does not produce the credit? List these items and describe them in detail.

Please answer each question in complete sentences, and cite name and number of the IRS publication or form/instruction where you found each answer, and the page number on which the answer is found. Use your own words in the answer – do not copy the IRS’ language.

Please please show steps or explain what you did as i really want to learn how to do this.

1. a Explain circumstances in which it is responsible to improve maintainability to counteract poor reliability and identify circumstances where this approach is unrewarding.

b the expression for steady-state availability of a single element is:

A(t) = µ/(λ+µ)

Explain what is meant by a steady state. State the meaning of meanings of the symbols µ and λ, and the assumptions inherent in the expression.

1.) A researcher claims that Americans use more consonants in their language than the vowels. To test this claim, researcher randomly selects 26 English words (please randomly generate these English words by yourself and explicitly state them in your homework as your sample). Based on this sample;

a) State your hypothesis H0 and H1 claiming that Americans use more consonants in their language.

b) State the decision rule, sample statistics, table value and test statistic in the same order as in the extra solved examples on hypothesis testing.

c) Test, at the 97% level, the null hypothesis that the process is operating correctly

This section of the assignment is designed to cultivate skills related to interpreting meaning from quantitative data. As part of a larger study, Speed and Gangestad (1997) collected ratings and nominations on a number of characteristics for 66 fraternity men from their fellow fraternity members. The following paragraph is taken from their results section:

. . . men's romantic popularity significantly correlated with several characteristics: best dressed (r = .48), most physically attractive (r = .47), most outgoing (r = .47), most self- confident (r = .44), best trendsetters (r =.38), funniest (r = .37), most satisfied (r = .32), and most independent (r =.28). Unexpectedly, however, men's potential for financial success did not significantly correlate with romantic popularity (r = .10). (p. 931)

Explain these results as if you were writing to a person who had never had a course in statistics. Specifically:

a) Explain what is meant by correlation coefficient using one of the correlations above as an example.

b) Provide your thoughts on the meaning of the pattern of results. (You could speculate on the meaning of the pattern of results, taking into account the issue of direct causality. You could also indicate what kinds of conclusions could NOT be drawn).  

US GOVERNMENT Q

Think about how federalism impacts elections: should every state retain control over their own elections or should it be a standardized process across all states? State your opinion and give at least 3 reasons (from current events) to support why you think elections should remain in state control OR why you think elections should be uniform across the entire country.

Anybody can find the accurate data about China economy?

GDP per Capita (constant US$) and GDP growth rate

State whether the countries are developed, developing or underdeveloped.
Include the reasons for your decision. To do this you should research the economic background of your country (CIA factbook is a good site to use) and look at your GDP per capita. A good starting point is to show your country’s data on the one graph.   

Show the growth rate of your countries on a graph. Discuss the growth rate of your countries during the last 10 years. Compare and contrast what has happened in the economies of your countries. Where would you place them on the business cycle?

Anybody can find the data on the Unemployment rate (modelled ILO estimate) or Inflation rate (CPI) over the same time period in China

Present the data in a table and draw a graph and compare the statistics on unemployment or Inflation over the last 5 years.

Discuss in detail the types of budgets that the government and not for profit organizations prepare. Give an elaborate discussion of each budget to give complete awareness about each type of budget including its contents.

A researcher is looking at the relationships between age and the number of instances of shoplifting. Use the data below to establish hypotheses and calculate the correlation for the relationship between age and shoplifting. State and explain your decision with regard to whether the H₀ is ultimately rejected or accepted.
