Macroeconomic Variables: Walmart
Could use any ideas for the following:
1. Provide an overview consisting of a brief description of Walmart's Neighborhood Market, your chosen product or service, and annual sales.
2. Describe how: Unemployment, Inflation and Interest rates (macroeconomic variables) in the United States, impact the supply and demand of Walmart's Neighborhood Market
Using graphs in Excel, interpret the trends of the three selected macroeconomic variables for the past three years. * this is just based on data gatehred in relation to the marcro variables to support conclusions. No data provided by instructor.*
3. Based on the trends of the three macroeconomic variables, assess how the trends will impact the supply and demand of your chosen product or service. Include all calculations in an Excel file.

A farmer pays $0.20 for seed that he uses to grow wheat which he sells to the miller for $0.40; the miller makes wheat flour and sells it to the baker for $0.60. The baker makes bread and sells it to the grocery store for $0.80 and the store sells it to the consumer for $1.00. The total contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) from all these transactions is

Information from the American Institute of Insurance indicates the mean amount of life insurance per household in the United States is $134,000. This distribution follows the normal distribution with a standard deviation of $30,000.
What is the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of at least $137,000? (Round your z value to 2 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)
d. What is the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of more than $126,000? (Round your z value to 2 decimal places and final answer
Find the likelihood of selecting a sample with a mean of more than $126,000 but less than $137,000. (Round your z value to 2 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released hourly wage figures for various countries for workers in the manufacturing sector. The hourly wage was $30.67 for Switzerland, $20.20 for Japan, and $23.82 for the U.S. Assume that in all three countries, the standard deviation of hourly labor rates is $4.00.
a. Suppose 44 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across Switzerland and asked what their hourly wage is. What is the probability that the sample average will be between $30.00 and $31.00?
b. Suppose 36 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across Japan. What is the probability that the sample average will exceed $21.00?
c. Suppose 50 manufacturing workers are selected randomly from across the United States. What is the probability that the sample average will be less than $22.90?

The purpose of this assignment is to understand the terms import and export, and then explain the advantages or disadvantages of buying imports rather than buying domestic products. You could, for instance, write about an imported automobile, stereo, or household appliance that you bought or considered buying. Include all of the following points in your discussion.

Statistics Homework:
Diabetes and hypertension are two of the most common diseases in Western, industrialized nations. In the United States, approximately 9% of the population has diabetes, while about 30% of adults have high blood pressure. The two diseases frequently occur together: an estimated 6% of the population has both diabetes and hypertension.
1. Are having diabetes and having hypertension disjoint?
2. Draw a Venn diagram summarizing the variables and their associated probabilities.
3. Let A represent the event of having diabetes, and B in the event of having hypertension. Calculate P (A or B).
4. What percent of Americans have neither hypertension nor diabetes?
5. Is the event of someone being hypertensive independent of the event that someone has diabetes?

Neuroinvasive West Nile virus refers to a severe disease that affects a person’s nervous system. It is spread by the Culex species of mosquito. In the United States in 2010 there were 629 reported cases of neuroinvasive West Nile virus out of a total of 1021 reported cases, and there were 486 neuroinvasive reported cases out of a total of 712 cases reported in 2011. Can we conclude that the 2011 proportion of neuroinvasive West Nile virus cases is significantly more than the 2010 proportion of neuroinvasive West Nile virus cases? If you conduct hypothesis testing, you have to consider:
Group of answer choices
a test of two proportions
a test of two independent means
a test of a single mean
a test of a single proportion.

Investopedia defines, “Monetary policy and fiscal policy refer to the two most widely recognized "tools" used to influence a nation's economic activity. Monetary policy is primarily concerned with the management of interest rates and the total supply of money in circulation and is generally carried out by central banks such as the Federal Reserve. Fiscal policy is the collective term for the taxing and spending actions of governments. In the United States, the national fiscal policy is determined by the Executive and Legislative Branches.”
This task will have you explore fiscal policy.
