Jackson County wants to renovate a local municipal park. The county commissioners think that the renovations will help attract more people to its facilities (including an aquatic center and tennis courts). There are fees attached to using these facilities, and the commission is confident that the additional revenue will more than justify these improvements. The county wants to issue bonds to pay for the renovations, and the bondholders will be paid from the cash flow generated by the park. This is an example of what type of bond?

Last year, Newcastle Coal Co. (NCC) sold an issue of bonds that are secured by the firm’s real property and real estate.

What type of bonds did Newcastle Coal Co. (NCC) issue last year?

1. The Sleep Well Corporation operates many hotels throughout the world. Suppose one of its Chicago hotels is facing difficult times because of the opening of several competing hotels. To accomodate its flight personnel, Air One has offered Sleep Well a contract for the coming year that provides a rate of $75 per night per room for a minimum of 45 rooms for 365 flights. This contract would assume Sleep Well of selling 45 rooms of space nightly, even if some of the rooms are vacant on some nights. Assume zero variable costs. The Sleep Well manager has mixed feelings about the contract. On several peak nights during the? year, the hotel could sell the same space for $175 per room. Suppose the Sleep Well manager signs the contract. What is the opportunity cost of the 45 rooms on October? 20, the night of a big convention of retailers when every nearby hotel room is? occupied? What is the opportunity cost on December? 28, when only 9 of these rooms would be expected to be rented at an average rate of $105??

If the? year-round rate per room averaged $85?, what percentage of occupancy of the 45 rooms in question would have to be rented to make Sleep Well indifferent about accepting the? offer?

PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER WITH STEPS.

Write a program in Java Using object Orientation Design to determine the status of Mini Van Sliding Doors. A logical circuit receives a different binary code to allow opening different doors. The doors can be opened by a dashboard switch, inside or outside handle. The inside handle will not open the door if the child safety lock is on or the master lock is on. The gear shift must be in the park to open the door.

  1. A method must be written to indicate the gear shift status and return to main.
  2. A method to display which door is open or can be opened.
  3. A method to show the status of all doors
  4. A method to convert the code to decimal and store in the text file (Character based) as a record.

** MUST USE constructors and methods. The methods should be instantiated by an object. Use simple main. The first bit Stream must be entered by users. The program needs to be interactive

(Solving with excel workbook)

A large corporation must reserve a hotel room block for its annual stockholders' meeting. Based on history, the number of attendees will be normally distributed with mean 4900 and standard deviation 1000. Rooms can be reserved now for a cost of $150/room. If the number of rooms reserved is less than attendance, additional rooms must be reserved at a cost of $250/room. If the number of rooms reserved is greater than attendance, the corporation must indemnify the hotel at the rate of $75 per unused room.

The boss tells you: "I am going to reserve 4300, 4400, 4500, 4600, 4700, 4800, 4900, 5000, 5100, or 5200 rooms, whichever you recommend. Please give me your recommendation." (first number requested)

Redo the problem: The number attending has a triangular distribution with minimum 2000, most likely value 4900, and maximum value 6900. Again, he boss tells you: "I am going to reserve 4300, 4400, 4500, 4600, 4700, 4800, 4900, 5000, 5100, or 5200 rooms, whichever you recommend. Please give me your recommendation." (second number requested)

For the first part of the problem, what is the chance that the random number sampled from the normal is negative, to 3 significant decimal digits? (third number requested)
