based on Marx and Smith and Meiksins Wood, describe/summarize how the system we now know as capitalism emerged out of the feudal order in Europe. two paragraphs each

1) Structural differences: What are the structural differences between feudal society and the capitalist system that eventually replaced? What do the systems have in common? What are the differences?

2) Dynamic transformation: Why did the institutions of the feudal system (described in a) change ? What social processes produced these changes? What institutions replaced the old order and how did these changes come about?

Describe the development of the Spartacus story, from the Roman version, as we encounter it in Plutarch, to the version in Kubrick's film from 1960. In addition to touching on the Roman and the Kubrick Spartacus, the beginning and end points, you must discuss three of the following five intermediate versions: the French Spartacus, Bird's play of 1831, Giovagnoli's novel of 1874, the Vidali film of 1913, Fast's novel of 1951. You should discuss not only changes in plot or emphasis, but the possible reasons for those changes. Rereading parts (if not all) of Wyke's chapter will probably be helpful to you.

1. If a certain corporation just recently paid a dividend of $3.70, and the dividend is expected to grow at 4% for a long time into the future, calculate the price of this company’s stock at required returns of 8%, 10% and 12%. Then using a 10% required return, calculate the price at growth rates of 2%, 5% and 8%. Discuss what you see in the behavior of the prices in response to changes in the growth rate and changes in the required return. Using the price you calculated with a 4% growth rate and a 10% required return, what would be the expected dividend and price five years from today?

Q.2 AD-AS model analysis for an increase in oil price

• Start with an initial AD-AS model with full employment equilibrium. Please label all the axes and the curves. Label the equilibrium as “1”.

• Let’s say that there is an oil shock (the price of oil has increased). What happens to which curve? Make sure to show the changes in the above AD-AS model. Therefore, what happens to the equilibrium and the economic condition? Explain all the changes in writing as well.

• What do we call this economic status? Explain how this economic situation is not the same as the recession in general.

McDonalds in the early Kroc years. What was the value proposition offered by McDonalds? What brought customers (repeatedly) in the door? What did the SWOT analysis look like at this time? McDonalds in the Skinner years (c, 2003) Had the value proposition changed? How does a SWOT analysis look different? What do those changes suggest about the need to adapt? McDonalds (2017) How does a SWOT analysis look different? What do those changes suggest about the needing to constantly challenge your value propositions for your targeted markets?

Laboratory 11B: Methyl Orange

1) What changes to the synthetic sequence used for methyl orange would need to be made to generate FD&C Orange #1 (see lab manual for the structure). (Some structure drawings will be helpful when answering this question).

2) Some fabrics stained strongly with methyl orange while others stained poorly. Using one of the strongly stained fabrics as an example, explain what features of that material result in it being strongly stained.

3) Explain why methyl orange changes color at different pH.

My industry is Optometry:

7. What are the impacts of the macroeconomic business cycle on demand in your industry? Is demand in your industry procyclical or countercyclical? Explain. If demand in your industry is insensitive to the business cycle, explain why this is so?

8. What are any major impacts of the macroeconomic business cycle on supply for your industry – i.e. how might different phases of the business cycle impact your industry’s ability to acquire inputs such as labor, capital or materials? Explain. Note: Do not discuss responses to demand side changes but look for impacts that are independent of demand changes.

1. Suppose a bond such as a Treasury bill, or T-bill, promises to pay $1000 a year, and the interest rate is 15%. Given this information, we know that the bond's price must be:

2. Answer the following questions using the following data

Y=C+I+G

C=120+0.5(Y-T)

I=100-10r

T=40

     = Y-20r

M=600

P= 2

1. Identify the each of the variables and briefly explain their meanings.
2. Find the IS curve and the LM curve and graph them in a diagram.
3. Determine the equilibrium interest rate and output.
4. Calculate the The multiplier in this economy

3. Suppose an economy represented by the fallowing equilibrium equation 0.8 y = 2500 and suppose that government decrease spending (G) by 100, what will happen to the output in the economy.

4. Illustrate the following situations in the different graphs;
5. 1. Changes in equilibrium when money supply increase and decrease
   2. Changes in equilibrium when government impose the tax and cut the tax (T)
   3. Changes in equilibrium when government reduces/increases the expenditure (G)
