Waterways mass-produces a special connector unit that it normally sells for $4.00. It sells approximately 38,000 of these units each year. The variable costs for each unit are $2.40. A company in Canada that has been unable to produce enough of a similar connector to meet customer demand would like to buy 15,900 of these units at $2.70 per unit. The production of these units is near full capacity at Waterways, so to accept the offer from the Canadian company would require temporarily adding another shift to its production line. To do this would increase variable manufacturing costs by $0.30 per unit. However, variable selling costs would be reduced by $0.20 a unit.
An irrigation company has asked for a special order of 1,800 of the connectors. To meet this special order, Waterways would not need an additional shift, and the irrigation company is willing to pay $3.20 per unit.
What are the consequences of Waterways agreeing to provide the
15,900 units to the Canadian company? Would this be a wise “special
order” to accept?
Should Waterways accept the special order from the irrigation
company?
What would be the consequences of accepting both special
orders?

Clayton Moore is the manager of an international money market fund managed out of London. Unlike many money funds that guarantee their investors a near risk-free investment with variable interest earnings, Clayton Moore's fund is a very aggressive fund that searches out relatively high-interest earnings around the globe, but at some risk. The fund is pound-denominated. Clayton is currently evaluating a rather interesting opportunity in Malaysia. Since the Asian Crisis of 1997, the Malaysian government enforced a number of currency and capital restrictions to protect and preserve the value of the Malaysian ringgit. The ringgit was fixed to the U.S. dollar at RM3.80/$ for seven years. In 2005, the Malaysian government allowed the currency to float against several major currencies. The current spot rate today is RM 3.13485 divided by $. Local currency time deposits of 180-day maturities are earning 8.900% per annum. The London eurocurrency market for pounds is yielding 4.200% per annum on similar 180-day maturities.

You are working in the ED at Harborview Medical Center. You are
seeing a 52-year-old male patient who reports cough, fever,
sweating, pleuritic chest pain and general malaise. Your
examination reveals a fever of 102F, respiration rate 24bpm,
rhonchi and decreased breath sounds, tachycardia with pulse of
116bpm, a tender one-inch mass on his right chest wall near his
shoulder and right eye injection with reported pain and normal
vision.
Your history indicates that he returned from Hawaii yesterday where
he participated in the Ironman competition. He was seen in the ED
in Kona, Hawaii two days earlier for similar symptoms that
initiated 12 hours prior to that visit. He had an appendectomy and
shoulder surgery in the past and reports episodic rashes over the
past few months. He is married with adult children and works at the
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in a molecular genetics
laboratory with no patient care responsibilities. List two
questions that you would ask the patient. For each, note your
