Oscar Tame is the CEO of AnyDoppler Inc. His company manufactures ultra-thin speaker pads. Each pad has a wire that can connect to an iPod. The pad can be placed on any surface (e.g. wall, table or window) and utilizes the material properties of the surface to turn it into a speaker that transmits sound when activated. Oscar hired a plant manager, Sybil Vain, to oversee factory operations. He pays her an annual salary of $100,000. Factory rent amounts to $30,000 per year. During the year, Sybil purchased $500,000 worth of factory capital assets. There are 25 assembly line workers who work 8 hours a day, for 4 days a week, for 50 weeks a year at $30 per hour. The factory has a high-tech inventory system that is able to trace raw materials to each finished good accurately and inexpensively. During the year, the factory used $350,000 worth of raw materials to produce the speaker pads. Depreciation of the factory equipment amounted to $15,000 and factory electricity expenses amounted to $10,000. At the beginning of the year, Oscar purchased three company cars for the sales team. Each car cost the company $45,000. The depreciation on these cars amounted to $5,000 for the year. During the year, Oscar spent $400,000 on marketing campaigns. Oscar was paid $200,000 for the year and paid his receptionist $45,000 per year.

Consider two employers and their respective optimal turnover policies. The first is a biology department in a research university. To increase the ranking of the department, professors must publish in top journals and win large grants from the NIH (which has a low funding rate). The second is a large chain of department stores which hire retailers and managers to work the cash register and make clothing recommendations for customers based on the store’s current inventory. a) Which employer should aim for relatively high turnover? Give at least two reasons to support your claim. Department of Economics Professor Frank University of Iowa Spring 2018 b) Which employer should aim to reduce turnover? Give at least two reasons why.

Market equilibrium occurs when the amount of people that are willing to buy equals the amount of people that are willing to sell. A steadfast tenant in economics. As students here at Post let’s surmise that right now Post is at market equilibrium. We have enough Instructors to match the number of students. However, two scenarios occur; first, student enrollment falls, so Post decides it must now raise tuition. Not good…. Or, enrollment increases! And Post decides to, you guessed it, increase tuition. Why in each scenario would the University raise tuition and, why should tuition NOT be raised, in either scenario? Talk to this from both your point of view as well as if you were on the Board of Directors for the University. What’s the right thing to do, and why???

Suppose the demand and supply curves for units of university credits are given by the following equations: Q D = 5400 − 2P Q S = 3P − 400 where QD is the quantity of credits demanded, QS is the quantity supplied, and P is the price charged for each unit in dollars. (a) (3 points) What is the free-market equilibrium Price and Quantity. (b) (3 points) Suppose that the government wants to make education more accessible and therefore passes a regulation that says no university can charge more than $800 per credit. What is the new equilibrium Price and Quantity? (c) (4 points) Calculate the shortage or surplus generated by this government policy. Show it on graph. Include your answers from part (a) and (b) on the graph.

1. A university has 10,000 students of which 45% are male and 55% are female. If a class of 30 students is chosen at random from the university population, find the mean and variance of the number of male students. Group of answer choices Mean = 16.5, Variance = 2.7 Mean = 13.5, Variance = 2.7 Mean = 16.5, Variance = 7.4 Mean = 13.5, Variance = 7.4

2. At a particular hospital, 40% of staff are nurse assistants. If 12 staff members are randomly selected, what is the probability that exactly 4 are nurse assistants?

3. Let X be a binomial distribution with n = 20 and p = .4 then the variance is

4.

Find the mean of the distribution shown below.

A university provides an opportunity for members to take part in training about how to respond to students’ questions. University managers believes that less than 60% of the members took part in the training. You are asked to examine whether there is any evidence to support this claim. You have surveyed 25 members and found that 17 of them have been benefited from the training.

Write down the null and alternative hypotheses in words.

Null hypothesis:
Alterative hypothesis:

State the direction of the test you are conducting and explain why you have chosen this test.

Using a level of significance (α) of 1%, determine the critical value(s).

Determine your decision rule (drawing a diagram on a paper may be helpful).

Calculate your test statistic.

Academic drops have been a concern for university administration due to the negative impact they have on graduation rates and consequently the image of the university.

The Management Department has collected the data for 10 semesters with the following results:

Academic drops from the last 20 to 10 semesters have been:

10, 7, 8, 9, 8, 6, 10, 12, 8, 10.

Has the Management Department seen a significant change in the number of academic drops over the last 5 years?

              b.    The 10 most recent semesters of sample data are: 5, 6, 8, 4, 2, 4, 3, 4, 3, 2.

              c.    Based on your evaluation of these data should the Management Department change their program to lower academic drops?
