Ratih, a financial analyst found that PT Mentari changed its accounting policy in preparing financial reports every year even though it was not due to new standard provisions. PT Mentari voluntarily changed its acquisition policy. For these changes, PT Mentari has followed the provisions in IAS 8 regarding changes in accounting policies. Ratih is one of the users who uses financial statements to determine the value of a company.

Give advice to Ratih what things to consider in analyzing the financial statements?
What provisions in the conceptual framework that might be violated by PT Mentari so that the financial statements are reduced in quality?

3. A soda vending machine is scheduled to ship an average of nine (9) ounces of soda per glass, with a standard deviation of one ounce (1) ounce. The machine manufacturer wishes to set the control limit so that for a sample of 36 soft drinks, 5% of the sample averages is higher than the upper control limit and 5% of the sample averages, lower than the limit of lower control
a. In what values should the control limits be programmed?
b. What is the probability that if the population average changes to 8.9, the change will not be detected?
C. What is the probability that if the population average changes to 9.3, the change will not be detected?

One hundred years ago life ran at a much slower pace than it does today and as each day passes, it moves at an even faster pace still. New technology replaces old stuff as quickly as the old stuff hits the market. It is really hard to keep up with the changes, some times. Take cars for example. We have had the internal combustion engine for over a hundred years. One day, it will be replaced, most likely in your lifetime. Most likely, self-driving cars will replace those who drive. Statistically, will these changes cause more cars on the roads or fewer cars and why?

1. A. List the components of the respiratory tract.

B. Describe the response by the respiratory system, specifically alterations of the respiratory rate, to increased pH and decreased pH and how the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen vary with changes in pH.

C. Using partial pressures, describe the movement of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs and the tissues.

D. Discuss the effects of pH and temperature changes on the oxygen dissociation curve for hemoglobin.

2. A. Discuss fluid exchange across the walls of capillaries and the formation of lymph.

B. List the three different types of capillaries and one place in the body where each could be found.

C. Describe the baroreceptor reflex.

Animal Physiology Question

1. Dynamic Range is the range of stimulus intensities over which a receptor can respond. Receptors that have a smaller (or narrower) dynamic range have much better discrimination of changes in stimulus intensity than receptors that have a large dynamic range (although I can’t test figures here, you should be able to draw a neuron with a wide vs. narrow dynamic range). Please explain the trade-off between dynamic range and discrimination using the relationship between number of action potentials fired and changes in stimulus intensity for both receptors with narrow vs. large dynamic ranges.

Q11 - Draw hypothetical supply and demand curves for tea. (You do not need to include this in the assignment.) For each of the following examples either supply or demand will be affected.

In each example say whether supply or demand is affected, and how they are affected, meaning are they increased or decreased.

Once you identify which curve changes and how it changes, explain or describe how the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity will be affected.

Example: Consumers have more income and tea is a normal good. (This is a change in demand. It will increase demand or shift it to the right. This will lead to an increase in the equilibrium quantity and an increase in the equilibrium price.)

a. Severe weather wreaks havoc with the tea crop.

There are 1000 mailboxes at a post office, numbered 1, 2, 3, …, 1000. There are also 1000 mailbox owners, one for each mailbox. At the start of the Mailbox Challenge, all mailboxes are closed and the owners open and close the mailboxes according to the following rules:

Owner 1 opens every mailbox.

Owner 2 closes every second mailbox; that is, lockers 2, 4, 6, 8, …, 1000.

Owner 3 changes the state of every third locker, closing it if it is open and

opening it if it is closed.

Owner n changes the state of every nth mailbox, etc.

When all the owners have taken their turns, how many mailboxes are open?
