A New York City daily newspaper called “Manhattan Today” charges an annual subscription fee of $216. Customers prepay their subscriptions and receive 260 issues over the year. To attract more subscribers, the company offered new subscribers the ability to pay $210 for an annual subscription that also would include a coupon to receive a 40% discount on a one-hour ride through Central Park in a horse-drawn carriage. The list price of a carriage ride is $200 per hour. The company estimates that approximately 30% of the coupons will be redeemed. Required: 1. How much revenue should Manhattan Today recognize upon receipt of the $210 subscription price? 2. How many performance obligations exist in this contract? 3. Prepare the journal entry to recognize sale of 15 new subscriptions, clearly identifying the revenue or deferred revenue associated with each performance obligation.

A semiprofessional baseball team near your town plays two home games each month at the local baseball park. The team splits the concessions 50/50 with the city but keeps all the revenue from ticket sales. The city charges the team $500 each month for the three-month season. The team pays the players and manager a total of $2500 each month. The team charges $10 for each ticket, and the average customer spends $7 at the concession stand. Attendance averages 100 people at each home game.
Part 1. The team earns an average of $________________ in
revenue for each game and $______________ of revenue each
season.
With total costs of $_____________ each season, the team finishes
the season with $________________ of profit.
Part 2 In order to break even, the team needs to sell tickets for each game. Round to the nearest whole number.

The UDairy ice cream truck plans to sell ice cream at an upcoming alumni event in Central Park (NYC). From past events, demand for ice cream is highly weather dependent. On rainy days, demand is normally distributed with a mean of 120 scoops and standard deviation of 35 scoops. On non-rainy days, demand is normally distributed with a mean of 200 scoops and standard deviation of 60 scoops. The ice cream truck will be loaded two days before the event and travel to NYC. If the UDairy truck plans to bring enough ice cream to maintain a 90% service level for a rainy day, but the day surprisingly turns out to be non-rainy, what is the probability of the ice cream truck stocking out? For simplicity, assume the number of scoops demanded is a continuous variable. Enter probability as a three-digit decimal (e.g. 0.500, 0.275, 0.942).

47. (BONUS) Suppose that Disney wants to follow up on the success of Frozen, with a sequeal this fall. The movie will cost $165 million to produce (INVESTED TODAY), and the producers expect the movie to generate a cash flow of $160 million in the first year. After the first year, cash flows will decline to $15 million in year 2.
However, the movie will also create synergy within the company.
Disney will build a new Olaf ride at Epcot for $40 million (invested TODAY). Disney suspects that the ride will bring visitors to the park and increase merchandise sales. Disney estimates that sales will increase by $12 million per year in PERPETUITY. The after-tax operating margin on these sales is 50% for Disney. If the cost of capital is 10%, what is the combined NPV of this opportunity?

How well materials conduct heat matters when designing houses, for example. Conductivity is measured in terms of watts of heat power transmitted per square meter of surface per degree Celsius of temperature difference on the two sides of the material. In these units, glass has conductivity about 1. The National Institution of Standards and Technology provides exact data on the properties of materials. Here are 11 measurements of the heat conductivity of a particular type of glass.
