History: Margaret Donovan, a 72-year-old white female, was brought to the emergency room by her son-in-law after falling in her bathtub. She was previously in good health, despite leading a relatively sedentary lifestyle and having a 30-pack-year history of cigarette smoking. The only medication she currently takes is Inderal (propranolol) for mild hypertension. She fell upon entering the bathtub when her right leg slipped out from under her; she landed on her right hip. There was no trauma to her head, nor does she complain of right or left wrist pain. However, she reports severe pain in the right hip and upper thigh and was unable to get up after her fall. An injection of oxymorphone hydrochloride (Numorphan) helped relieve her pain and she was taken to the radiology department for an X-ray of her right leg and hip.

What would you ask her about the home environment and her level of activity?

QUESTION 11 You are at home in Royal Oak on a beautiful Saturday preparing for the arrival later that evening of some dinner guests when your doorbell rings. At the door is an enthusiastic young woman wearing a polo shirt with the words "Royal Oak Good Restaurant and Bar" embroidered on it. Handing you a business card with the ROGRB logo and the title "Vice President" on it, the woman explains that she works for the ROGRB and has a great offer: for $20, you can purchase a book of coupons with discounts on ROGRB food and drinks. The total value of the coupons is over $300, she explains. Since ROGRB is one of your favorite restaurants, you make the purchase. Later on, you find out that the woman was, until the week before she visited you, a part owner in the restaurant, but that she and the other owner had a falling-out and she left the restaurant. You also learn that the coupons are invalid. What is a true statement about this situation? a. You most certainly have a cause of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress against ROGRB. b. The woman had actual express authority to sell you the coupon book. c. The woman had apparent authority to sell you the coupon book. d. Although you might have a negligence action against ROGRB, it was your responsibility to call the restaurant to verify the woman's status as a representative and your failure to do so negates your ability to file suit.

Look Out Below: A Case Study on Bone Tissue Structure and Repair An elderly patient arrived at the emergency room unconscious after an accident in which a heavy overhead shelf struck her arm. Upon auscultation, a large open wound on her arm was evident with what appears to be bone tissue sticking out of the skin. She also has bruises covering her left shoulder, left wrist, and lower back. To determine the extent of her injuries the patient undergoes several x-rays, which reveal the following:

5. Most connective tissue, including bone, is highly vascular. Which anatomical structures in the patient’s compact bone house blood vessels?

6. What term is used to describe the addition of new bone tissue? Identify which bone cell is responsible for this process and explain how it occurs.

7. What makes up the organic and inorganic portions of the bone’s extracellular matrix (ECM)? 8. Describe the structure of an osteon.

Discussion:

Further diagnostic tests on the patient revealed a lack of estrogen and calcium. Elaborate on how these factors may have made the injury worse. In normal conditions, what would be the response to falling calcium levels? Post your response and respond to two of your classmates using at least 3-5 sentences to receive full credit (10 points).

  1. The lease on the building housing the North Store can be broken with no penalty.

  2. The fixtures being used in the North Store would be transferred to the other two stores if the North Store were closed.

  3. The general manager of the North Store would be retained and transferred to another position in the company if the North Store were closed. She would be filling a position that would otherwise be filled by hiring a new employee at a salary of $13,100 per quarter. The general manager of the North Store would continue to earn her normal salary of $14,100 per quarter. All other managers and employees in the North store would be discharged.

  4. The company has one delivery crew that serves all three stores. One delivery person could be discharged if the North Store were closed. This person’s salary is $5,700 per quarter. The delivery equipment would be distributed to the other stores. The equipment does not wear out through use, but does eventually become obsolete.

  5. The company pays employment taxes equal to 15% of their employees' salaries.

  6. One-third of the insurance in the North Store is on the store’s fixtures.

  7. The “General office salaries” and “General office—other” relate to the overall management of Superior Markets, Inc. If the North Store were closed, one person in the general office could be discharged because of the decrease in overall workload. This person’s compensation is $7,050 per quarter.

Midnight Sun Apparel Company uses normal costing, and manufacturing overhead is applied to work-in-process on the basis of machine hours. On January 1 of the current year, there were no balances in work-in-process or finished-goods inventories. The following estimates were included in the current year’s budget.

    
Total budgeted manufacturing overhead $ 282,000
Total budgeted machine hours 47,000


During January, the firm began the following production jobs:

A79: 1,000 machine hours

N08: 2,500 machine hours

P82: 500 machine hours

Prepare a journal entry to prorate the balance calculated in requirement 3 (Underapplied overhead = $2000) among the Work-in-Process Inventory, Finished-Goods Inventory, and Cost of Goods Sold accounts. (Do not round intermediate calculations. If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

Consider a country that produces two goods cloth (C) and food (F) with two factors of production: land (T) and labor (L). The technology for cloth and food are as follows.

Qc= Min {1/20 L,T}, Qf= Min {1/5 L,T}, where Qc denotes the amount of cloth produced and Qf denotes the amount of food produced. Denote the wage by w and the rent of land by r.

A).Suppose that the economy’s total resources are 600 hours of labor and 60 units of land. Determine the allocation of labor and land between the two goods algebraically and then show it diagrammatically.

B).Now suppose that the labor supply increases first to 800, then 1000, then 1200 hours. In each case, determine the allocation of labor and land between the two goods algebraically and then show them diagrammatically. Verify the Rybczynski’s theorem.
