electronic psychrometric plotting program, let’s consider atmospheric conditions at sea level with a dry bulb temperature (Tdry bulb ) of 23˚C and a relative humidity (RH) of 30%. Plot this state point on the pyschrometric chart available in PsycPro software. Use PsycPro to determine the following: a. Wet bulb temperature (WBT) of the air b. Dew point temperature (DPT) of the air c. Humidity ratio (specific humidity) d. Enthalpy e. Specific volume of the air (i) Provide the values for the about parameters as found from the pshchrometric chart (ii) Provide a screenshots of your completed PsycPro chart with the following: a) values of above different parameters and b) with the above plotted state point (two screenshots) Instructions for using PsycPro can be found on the course Moodle. You can verify your answers using another online psychrometric program or a paper chart, if you wish.

Question 4

Given the following swap rates, Charlton Ferguson, Chief Finance Officer of Red Devils Ltd., decides to enter into a four-year currency swap agreement to receive pounds and pay euros, on a notional principal of £33,000,000. The spot exchange rate at the time of the swap is €1.8300/£.

          Swap Rates

          Years           £ bid £ ask            € bid € ask

          2                  4.08% 4.28%           3.10% 3.30%

          3                  4.18% 4.33%           3.25% 3.48%

          4                  4.23% 4.48%           3.30% 3.60%

a)       Calculate all principal and interest payments, in both pounds and euros, over the life of the currency swap agreement.

b)       Assuming that two years into the swap agreement, Charlton Ferguson decides to unwind the swap agreement and settle it in pounds. Assume that a two-year fixed rate of interest on pounds is 4.50%, a two-year fixed rate of interest on euros is 3.80%, and the spot rate of exchange is now €1.7788/£. Find the net settlement amount of unwinding the swap and state who pays to whom the net settlement amount (Red Devils Ltd. pays to swap dealer or swap dealer pays to Red Devils Ltd.).

1. A researcher has gathered information from a survey of 25 randomly selected university campuses. From this data, it was reported that the average number of reported sexual assaults on these campuses in the last year was 12 with a standard deviation of 3. Calculate a 95% confidence interval to estimate the average number of sexual assaults on Canadian university campuses as a whole. Remember to report your confidence interval in a complete sentence and describe what it means. (15%)

2. A survey was conducted at Acadia on attitudes toward the campus alcohol policy against drinking games in residence with 262 randomly selected residence students. In response to the question, “Are you in favour of the drinking games policy?” 25% were in favour. What is the 99% confidence interval to estimate the percentage of all Acadia residence students regarding the drinking game policy? Remember to report your confidence interval in a complete sentence and describe what it means. (15%)

3. School boards in Nova Scotia, on average receive a budget of $623.00 per student from the provincial government. A random sample of 45 rural schools report that they received on average $605 per student with a standard deviation of $74. Is there a significant difference in the budgets between rural schools and the whole province? (20%)

This question is an example of statistical research using hypothesis testing. You will need to use the 5 step model of hypothesis testing to test for significance at a=.05.

• State assumptions

• State the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis
• State the appropriate hypothesis test for each question and determine your critical scores for testing significance at .05
• Calculate your test statistic making sure you show your formulas
• Interpret your results using complete sentences indicating is significance was determined

4. Nationally, the unemployment rate for teenage males is 18%. A random sample of 323 teenage males in your area reveals an unemployment rate of 21.7%. Are our local teens more likely to be unemployed?   (20%) This question is an example of statistical research using hypothesis testing. You will need to use the 5 step model of hypothesis testing to test for significance at a=.01.

• State assumptions

• State the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis
• State the appropriate hypothesis test for each question and determine your critical scores for testing significance at .01
• Calculate your test statistic making sure you show your formulas
• Interpret your results using complete sentences indicating is significance was determined

USING SPSS

5. What is the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of Canadians that have more than a high-school education? For this question you will need to use your data (your sample of Canadian) from the Canadian Community Health Survey. Use the variable (EDUDH04), create a new variable where 1=more than high school, and 0= every other VALID response. Calculate the statistics you need to construct your confidence internal, and then calculate the interval by hand by using the appropriate formula. (20%)

Copy and past a frequency table of your dummy variable (make sure your new variable is labelled) into your assignment. Copy and paste your statistics box. Write your answer in a complete sentence and describe what it means.

1. Explain the following behaviour by two employees and whether it is appropriate. Sam comes from a country where it is acceptable to wink at others.

Sam has done this as a habit all his life. When Sam arrived in Australia, he was reported for inappropriate behaviour at his workplace. Explain in detail to Sam what has happened.

Min hugs everyone briefly when they meet. But when Min was on a business trip to South East Asia, Min was told it was wrong to hug members of the opposite sex. Can you explain to Min what is the problem here?

2.

Suppose you work at a local state hospital. In 2015, the infectious disease department of the hospital was operating at max capacity. Your supervisor has given you the job of presenting to the hospital leadership board about the number of patients who contracted infections while at 30 different hospitals in your state in 2015. The board will use your findings to make informed decisions about possible expansion of the infectious disease department. You will review the data, create visuals for the data, and create a presentation for the hospital leadership board to help with the decision.

1. A 1.5- volt battery is connected across an LED bulb, but the bulb does not “light up.” What are two possible reasons why it’s not lighting? (Both the battery and LED are in working order,)

2. ) In what way are an LED and a solar cell alike? In what ways are they different

Please explain everything in detail, I have a lot of difficulty with science. Thank you!

Respond to each short answer question using two to three well-constructed paragraphs (150 – 250 words) containing specific details and examples that support your understanding of the concepts.

1. Explain how businesses can use price elasticity of demand to make decisions about whether to raise or lower prices.

1. Anyone who plays or watches sports has heard of the “home field advantage.” Tournaments in many sports are designed to try to neutralize the advantage of the home team or player. Most people believe that teams tend to win more often when they play at home. But do they? If there were no home field advantage, the home teams would win about half of all games played. To test this, we’ll use the games in the Major league Baseball 2017 season. That year, there were 2430 regular-season games. It turns out that the home team won 1312 of the 2430 games, or 53.99% of the time. Is there strong evidence that there exists a “home field advantage?” Use a significance level of 5% to test your hypothesis.

a) Define the parameter of interest.

b) State the hypotheses statements.

c) Check that the conditions have been met and name the significance test to be used. (Note: Though we are not interested in just the 2017 season, and this is not randomly selected, it is reasonable that the sample is representative of all Major League Baseball games in the recent past and near future.)

d) Perform the test and show all work.

e) Interpret the P-value and state your conclusion.

f) Calculate and interpret a 95% confidence interval.

g) Describe what a Type I and Type II error would be in the context of this problem.
