You are asked to design a model, using a UML class diagram to relate the abovementioned concepts:
Correctly use UML notations for relations such as generalization, association, aggregation, composition. Be careful to distinguish objects from classes.
You may introduce additional concepts into the picture to make your
model more appropriate.
For each Class in your diagram, you should define at least one
attribute and one operation.
Use multiplicity whenever appropriate.
Note that if you are not sure about a concept, you should do
research on the problem domain.

Over the past six months, Six Flags conducted a marketing study on improving their park experience. The study cost $3.00 million and the results suggested that Six Flags add a kid's only roller coaster.
Suppose that Six Flags decides to build a new roller coaster for the upcoming operating season. The depreciable equipment for the roller coaster will cost $50.00 million and an additional $5.00 million to install. The equipment will be depreciated straight-line over 20 years.
The marketing team at Six Flags expects the coaster to increase attendance at the park by 5%. This translates to 110,199.00 more visitors at an average ticket price of $39.00. Expenses for these visitors are about 11.00% of sales.
There is no impact on working capital. The average visitor spends $20.00 on park merchandise and concessions. The after-tax operating margin on these side effects is 38.00%. The tax rate facing the firm is 38.00%, while the cost of capital is 9.00%.
What is the project cash flow for year 0? (answer in terms of MILLIONS)
What is the project cash flow for year 1? (express answer in millions)
What is the NPV of this coaster project if Six Flags will
evaluate it over a 20-year period? (Six Flags expects the first
year project cash flow to grow at 5% per year, going forward)
(Express answer in millions)

Pacific Hotels operates a centralized call center for the reservation needs of its hotels. Costs associated with use of the center are charged to the hotel group (luxury, resort, standard, and budget) based on the length of time of calls made (time usage). Idle time of the reservation agents, time spent on calls in which no reservation is made, and the fixed cost of the equipment are allocated based on the number of reservations made in each group. Due to recent increased competition in the hotel industry, the company has decided that it is necessary to better allocate its costs in order to price its services competitively and profitably. During the most recent period for which data are available, the use of the call center for each hotel group was as follows: Division Time Usage(thousands of minutes) Number of Reservations (thousands) Luxury 220 104 Resort 110 143 Standard 440 273 Budget 330 780 During this period, the cost of the call center amounted to $870,000 for personnel and $660,000 for equipment and other costs.
Required: a. Determine the allocation to each of the divisions using the following:
1. A single rate based on time used. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
2. Dual rates based on time used (for personnel costs) and number of reservations (for equipment and other cost). (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Using the weighted-average method, calculate the following:
1-a. Costs per equivalent unit. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.)
1-b. Cost of goods completed and transferred out. (Round "Cost per EU" to 4 decimal places. Round final answer to nearest whole dollars.)
1-c. Costs remaining in the Work-in-Process Inventory account. (Round "Cost per EU" to 4 decimal places. Do not round other intermediate calculations. Round final answer to nearest whole dollars.)
2. Assume that you are the company’s controller. The production department’s February equivalent unit cost is higher than expected. If the manager of the first department asks you to do him a favor by increasing the ending inventory completion percentage from 40 to 60% to lower the unit costs, how much would the unit cost be affected by this request? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

In January 2017, Mitzu Co. pays $2,600,000 for a tract of land with two buildings on it. It plans to demolish Building 1 and build a new store in its place. Building 2 will be a company office; it is appraised at $750,000, with a useful life of 20 years and a $85,000 salvage value. A lighted parking lot near Building 1 has improvements (Land Improvements 1) valued at $360,000 that are expected to last another 12 years with no salvage value. Without the buildings and improvements, the tract of land is valued at $1,890,000. The company also incurs the following additional costs:
Cost to demolish Building 1 $ 339,400
Cost of additional land grading 191,400
Cost to construct new building (Building 3), having a useful life
of 25 years and a $400,000 salvage value 2,302,000
Cost of new land improvements (Land Improvements 2) near Building 2
having a 20-year useful life and no salvage value 168,000
Allocate the costs incurred by Mitzu to the appropriate columns and total each column.
