In the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, there were eight runners in the final of the men's 100 meter dash. How many possible outcomes could we have seen on the podium?

(The podium honors the first three finishers in an ORDERED fashion. The first-place finishers gets the gold medal, second-place finisher gets the silver medal, and the third-place finisher gets the bronze medal.)

How many possible outcomes could we have seen on the podium that didn't include either of the two Americans? Remember the podium represents an ORDERED finish.

What is the probability that both of the American runners medalled? (To medal means to finish in the top three)

**Calculate under the assumption that order doesn't matter for this calculation.

How many possible outcomes could we have seen on the podium if we know that a runner from Jamaica finished first, a runner from America finished second, and a runner from neither Jamaica nor America finished third?

Scenario 1: Hockeyzine Inc. (4.5 marks) Every August, Hockeyzine Inc. publishes a fantasy hockey league magazine which is sent to various magazine retailers in Canada for sale. The standard sales contract allows these retailers to return any unsold magazines at the end of November each year. At the end of November, the retailers are responsible for submitting a report indicating how many magazines were sold. At this time, they will return the unsold goods and remit a cheque for payment to Hockeyzine for $3.50 per magazine sold. Hockeyzine records revenue on the magazines when they are shipped to the retailers in August at which point the magazines are removed from Hockeyzine’s inventory records. The company applies ASPE. Scenario 2: Cozy Cabin Co. (6.0 marks) Cozy Cabin Co. (“Cozy”) manufactures and sells prefabricated ski chalets to ski resorts across Canada. Slippery Slopes (“Slopes”) placed an order for 50 ski chalets to take advantage of a volume discount. Slopes is currently in the process of preparing one of their mountains to allow for construction of the ski chalets. They do not have storage space on site to store the chalets while they prepare the mountain; therefore, they requested that Cozy store the chalets and provide them a delivery schedule. Slopes provided Cozy with insurance coverage for the chalets and acknowledged that they were taking legal title of the chalets immediately. Cozy stores the chalets in a separate part of the warehouse and specifically identifies them as belonging to Slopes. The chalets are customized and cannot be sold to other customers. Cozy invoiced Slopes once the chalets were complete and ready for shipment and required payment within the customary 30-day term. Cozy recognized revenue on this transaction once the invoicing process was complete. The company reports under IFRS. Required: Start this question on a new page. Show all analysis to get full marks. a) Clearly state if you think the company’s current revenue recognition policy is appropriate or not appropriate. Support your answer by referencing to relevant handbook principles and applying case facts. b) If you believe the company’s current policy is not appropriate, state what changes the company should make to their policy.

Political Science-American government

The federal bureaucracy is sometimes referred to as the “fourth branch” of the government because it wields significant power. Using a news article from the last eight weeks that demonstrates this power, evaluate the bureaucracy as co-equal branch of the federal government. Why or why isn’t it a fourth branch?

Answer every question in full sentences. For part 2, assume a doctor's appointment and a lab test each cost $100 when determining which plan the consumer should choose.

Review the following insurance plans and then answer the questions below.

1. Compare the plans above.

• What are the major differences between the plans?

A sample of 16 Triple-A minor league baseball teams were selected for statistical analysis. The following data show the average attendance for the 16 teams selected. Also shown are the teams’ records; W denotes the number of games won, L denotes the number of games lost, and PCT is the proportion of games played that were won.  Additionally, each teams’ major league association was given. The data are contained in the file named AAA.

1. Graph and Summary statistics:  present a graph that summarizes the data along with a table of summary statistics for each variable in the data set.  An interpretation must accompany any graph, chart, or table that you use.
2. Methods:  
   1. Develop estimated regression equations, first using attendance as the dependent variable and then using number of wins as the independent variable. Discuss your findings.
   2. Develop an estimated regression equation with attendance as dependent variable and both league and wins as the independent variables.  Discuss your findings.
   3. What is the predicted attendance for an America league AAA team with 72 wins?

A particular book publisher is thinking about starting up a new national magazine in a small town. It's thought that this publisher would have to get over 12% of the book market to be financially secure. While planning to launch this magazine, a survey was taken of a sample of 400 readers. After providing an inside look into this magazine, one question asked the participants if they would subscribe to this magazine if the cost didn't exceed $20 per month. Suppose that the number of participants that said they would subscribe is 58.

a. Can this publisher conclude that this proposed magazine will be financially feasible?

b. Suppose that the true value of the overall proportion of readers who will subscribe to this magazine is .13. Was the decision made in part a correct? If not, what type of error was made?

c. State the meaning of a type 1 and type 2 error in the content of this example. What would be the consequences of making these errors to the publisher?

Design a Ship class that has the following members:

• A member variable for the name of the ship (a string)
• A member variable for the year that the ship was built (a string)
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators
• A virtual print function that displays the ship’s name and the year it was built.

Design a CruiseShip class that is derived from the Ship class. The CruiseShip class
should have the following members:

• A member variable for the maximum number of passengers (an int )
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators
• A print function that overrides the print function in the base class. The CruiseShip class’s print function should display only the ship’s name and the maximum number of passengers.

Design a CargoShip class that is derived from the Ship class. The CargoShip class
should have the following members:

• A member variable for the cargo capacity in tonnage (an int ).
• A constructor and appropriate accessors and mutators.
• A print function that overrides the print function in the base class. The CargoShip class’s print function should display only the ship’s name and the ship’s cargo capacity.

After you have created these classes, create a driver program that defines an array pointers to your abstract base class Ship. It should present a menu to allow the user to enter a Cruise Ship or a Cargo Ship. When the user selects cruise ship, it should prompt them for the name, year built, and the number of passengers. When the user selects cargo ship, it should prompt them ffor the name, year built, and the maxium cargo load (in tons). Each selection should create an object that can be stored into your array of pointers. When the program exits, it should display the history of the session which includes each of the objects the user created which will be a combination of cruise ships and cargo ships. An example output is shown here:

Menu

1. Cruise Ship
2. Cargo Ship
