Magnesium sulfate has a number of uses, some of which are related to the ability of the anhydrate form to remove water from air and others based on the high solubility of the heptahydratc (MgSO.4 . 7H2,O)form, also known as Epsom salt. The densities of the anhydrate and heptahydratc crystalline forms are 2.66 and 1.68 g/mL, respectively. Suppose you wish to form a 20.0 wt% MgS()4 aqueous solution by simply pouring crystals of one of the forms into a tank of water while the temperature is held constant at 30degree C. The specific gravity of the 20.0 wt% solution at 30degree C is 1.22. Answer the following questions for both forms of the MgS04 crystals: What volume of water should be in the tank before crystals arc added if the final product is to be 1000 kg of the 20wt% solution? Suppose the tank diameter is 0.30 m. What is the height of liquid in the tank before the crystals are added? What is the height of the water in the tank after addition of the crystals but before they begin to dissolve? What is the height of liquid in the tank after all the MgSO4 has dissolved?5.8. Use the idcal-gas equation of state to kg/m3 at 40degree C

Suppose that, prior to the passage of the Truth in Lending Simplification Act and Regulation Z, the demand for consumer loans was given by Q^d_pre-TILSA = 10 -80P (in billions of dollars) and the supply of consumer loans by credit unions and other lending institutions was Q^S_pre-TILSA = 4 + 80P (in billions of dollars). The TILSA now requires lenders to provide consumers with complete information about the rights and responsibilities of entering into a lending relationship with the institution, and as a result, the demand for loans increased to Q^d_post-TILSA = 22 -80P (in billions of dollars). However, the TILSA also imposed “compliance costs” on lending institutions, and this reduced the supply of consumer loans to Q^S_post-TILSA = 2 + 80P (in billions of dollars).

Based on this information, compare the equilibrium price and quantity of consumer loans before and after the Truth in Lending Simplification Act.(Note: Q is measured in billions of dollars and P is the interest rate).

Instruction: Enter your responses for the equilibrium price in percentage terms, and round all responses to one decimal place.

Equilibrium price (interest rate) before TILSA:  percent

Equilibrium quantity (in billions of dollars) before TILSA: $  billion

Equilibrium price (interest rate) after TILSA:  percent

Before her death, Lucy entered into the following transactions. Discuss the estate and income tax ramifications of each of these transactions.

A. Lucy borrowed $600,000 from her brother, Irwin, so that Lucy could start a business. The loan was on open account, and no interest or due date was provided for. Under applicable state law, collection on the loan was barred by the statute of limitations before Lucy died. Because the family thought that Irwin should recover his funds, the executor of the estate paid him $600,000.

B. Lucy promised her sister, Ida, a bequest of $500,000 if Ida would move in with her and care for her during an illness (which eventually proved to be terminal). Lucy never kept her promise, as her will was silent on any bequest to Ida. After Lucy’s death, Ida sued the estate and eventually recovered $600,000 for breach of contract.

C. Before her death, Lucy incurred and paid certain medical expenses but did not have the opportunity to file a claim for recovery from her insurance company. After her death, the claim was filed by Lucy’s executor, and the reimbursement was paid to the estate.

3. The watershed shown in the figure below is located in Bowling Green, Kentucky (western Kentucky).  The entire watershed is 100 acres in size and is predominantly forested (woods in good condition) before mining begins.  The soils are Macomber (HSG C) and Saragosa (HSG B) with about 50% of the entire watershed in each. These soil types do not change when mining happens.  One seam of coal is to be surface mined as indicated in the figure below (hatched area), with this strip mine land-use being considered “cultivated land without conservation treatment.”  The remaining non-mined land use remains as forested. Please feel free to treat the mining strip (hatched) area as a rectangle with the width 180 ft and length 4500 ft (18.6 acres).

1. (2.5 points) Calculate the Curve Number for the Before Mining watershed condition

2. (2.5 points) Determine how much of the rainfall falling on this before mining watershed would be removed as initial abstractions.  

3. (2.5 points) Calculate the Curve Number for the After Mining watershed condition.

4. (2.5 points) Determine how much of the rainfall falling on this after mining watershed would be removed as initial abstractions.  

A mass m = 13 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =7.4 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 32° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μ_k = 0.31. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 32° (thus on the incline it is parallel to the surface) and has a tension T =59 N.

What is the work done by tension before the block goes up the incline? (On the horizontal surface.)

What is the speed of the block right before it begins to travel up the incline?

What is the work done by friction after the block has traveled a distance x = 4.1 m up the incline? (Where x is measured along the incline.)

What is the work done by gravity after the block has traveled a distance x = 4.1 m up the incline? (Where x is measured along the incline.)

How far up the incline does the block travel before coming to rest? (Measured along the incline.)

On the incline the net work done on the block is:

positive

negative

zero

2. An interesting and popular hypothesis is that individuals can temporarily postpone death to survive a major holiday or important event such as a birthday. In a study, it was found that there were 6062 deaths in the week before Thanksgiving, and 5938 deaths the week after Thanksgiving (based on data from “Holidays, Birthdays, and Postponement of Cancer Death,” by Young and Hade, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 292, No. 24).

   (a) If people can postpone death until after Thanksgiving, then the proportion of deaths in the week before should be less than 50%. By hand, use the p-value method and a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of deaths in the week before Thanksgiving is less than 50%. Use excel to confirm the p-value you found. Hint: the command =norm.s.dist(test statistic, true) finds the left tail probability for z. (b) Based on the result, does there appear to be any indication that people can temporarily postpone death to survive the Thanksgiving holiday? (c) Suppose the hypothesis test in a) was to find if the proportion is different from 50%; redo the hypothesis test by hand using the p-value method and compare the results. Confirm your p-value using excel.

Kenneth, a Malaysian citizen was operating a restaurant in Japan since 1998. During

the period 1998 to 2006, Kenneth was never in Malaysia. Since 2007, Kenneth have

been returning to Malaysia frequently to attend to some family affairs and it was established that Kenneth was a Malaysian tax resident for the basis years 2007 to 2009.

In 2014, Kenneth sold his restaurant in Japan. He was recruited into the Malaysian Civil Service at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 01 November 2013. He was posted to the Malaysian Embassy in Tokyo from 01 December 2013.

Kenneth left for Tokyo on 29 November 2013 and reported for duty on 01 December 2013. Since then Kenneth has never been back to Malaysia.

Below are the patterns of Kenneth’s duration of stay in Malaysia since 2010:

01 March 2010 to 31 March 2010

01 May 2011 to 31 January 2012

01 April 2013 to 15 May 2013

01 October 2013 to 28 November 2013

During the period Kenneth was not in Malaysia, he was in Japan.

Required:

For the purposes of Malaysian income tax, determine Kenneth’s residence status for the basis years 2010 to 2014.
