Angel's Garage is paying off a new car lift in three annual installments of $900, with an interest rate of 6.5% compounded annually. Payments are made each August.
Explain what Angel's will have paid in total, after all three payments are made. Show all calculations.
Explain what would be different if interest were compounded monthly.
If Angel's Garage gets the opportunity to refinance the payment plan at 6.45% interest which compounds monthly after the first payment but before the second, would you advise Angel to refinance, or not? Explain your answer and show all calculations.

Two cars collide at an intersection. Car A, with a mass of 2000 kg , is going from west to east, while car B, of mass 1400 kg , is going from north to south at 14.0 m/s . As a result of this collision, the two cars become enmeshed and move as one afterwards. In your role as an expert witness, you inspect the scene and determine that, after the collision, the enmeshed cars moved at an angle of 60.0 ∘ south of east from the point of impact. How fast were the enmeshed cars moving just after the collision? How fast was car A going just before the collision?

After a rash of injuries and deaths in the Big Choke Coal Mine, members of the Parliamentary Workplace Safety Committee are holding public hearings about proposed regulations to increase the level of safety at the Big Choke Mine.
a) The Parliamentary Workplace Safety Committee argues that the proposed regulations will make the workers better off given the increased safety. Applying your knowledge of the neoclassical theory of compensating wages, use graphical analysis to evaluate this argument. Draw a graph for before and after the implementation of the proposed regulation. Explain each graph. (Assume there are two other mines in the coal mining industry.)

You are a consultant to a large manufacturing corporation that is considering a project with the following net after-tax cash flows (in millions of dollars):
| Years from Now | After-Tax Cash Flow |
| 0 | –90 |
| 1–10 | 17 |
The project's beta is 1.2.
a. Assuming that rf = 4% and E(RM) = 11%, what is the net present value of the project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.)
b. What is the highest possible beta estimate for the project before its NPV becomes negative? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Choose a variable that will allow the use of dependent samples. For example, you might wish to see if a persons’ proficiency at softball has changed/improved after a training camp. Do not use variables that are presented in the course in order to illustrate the concept. Select a sample of data (10 to 20) value pairs (e.g. before and after), and then complete the following:
e. State how the sample was selected.
f. Show the raw data in a table.
g. Decide which statistical test is appropriate and compute the test statistic (z or t). Why is the test appropriate?
h. Find the critical value(s).

Create a PoemDriver.java class with a main method. In the main method, create an ArrayList of Poem objects, read in the information from PoemInfo.txt and create Poem objects to populate the ArrayList. After all data from the file is read in and the Poem objects added to the ArrayList- print the contents of the ArrayList. Paste your PoemDriver.java text (CtrlC to copy, CtrlV to paste) into the open space before. You should not change Poem.java or PoemInfo.txt. Watch your time as the quiz will close after 40 minutes and I will not accept email submissions. It is better to paste periodically into the quiz so you turn in something.

A small research device can be purchased for $50,000 and depreciated by MACRS (check the property class). The net benefits from the device, before deducting depreciation, are $7,000 at the end of the first year and increasing $3,500 after that (second year equals $10,500, third year equals $14,000, etc.) until the device is hauled to the junkyard at the end of seven years. During the seven-year period, there will be an inflation rate (f) of 3%. The profitable corporation has a 25% combined federal and state income tax rate. If it requires a real 15% after-tax rate of return on its investment, should the device be purchased?

Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 69.2 kg) and Rebecca (mass 50.1 kg) are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while at rest, is struck by Rebecca, who is moving at12.7 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 6.8 m/s at an angle of 50.1° from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink.
(a) What are the magnitude and direction of Daniel's velocity
after the collision?
m/s
(b) What is the change in total kinetic energy of the two skaters
as a result of the collision?

A corp is considering paying dividends to shareholders.The corp has a $2.00 of per share earnings before taxes. Corp tax rate is 21%, personal dividend income tax rate is 15%, personal non-dividend income tax is 25% What is the after-tax value that will accure to shareholders if all $2.00 is distributed and the corp is a C-corp. What is the after tax value that would accure to shareholders, but now assume it is an S-corp.
Please show work and some small explanations would be nice, i need to be able to know how to do this myself thanks!
