ABC Apartments is a 300-unit complex near Fairway University that attracts mostly university students. The manager has collected the following data and wants to project the number of units leased in Semester 9 using simple linear regression. Here is the information that has been collected:

In answering these questions, you must identify and use the correct independent and dependent variables.

a) The apartment manager wants to forecast the Number of Units Leased as a function of time. What is the linear regression relationship the manager should use and what is the forecast for the Number of Units Leased for Semester 9?

b) Suppose the manager believes that the Number of Units Leased is a function only of University Enrollment. It is believed that there will be a one semester lag between the enrollment and the units leased. In other words, the number of units leased in a semester is a function of the university enrollment in the prior semester. What is the linear regression relationship the manager should use and what is the forecast for the Number of Units Leased for Semester 9?

c) Suppose the manager believes that the Number of Units Leased is a function only of the Average Lease Price for that semester. What is the linear regression relationship the manager should use and what is the forecast for the Number of Units Leased for Semester 9 if the average lease price for that semester is $450?

d) Considering the strength of each of the relationships that you found in parts a) through c), would you use any of these to forecast the Number of Units Leased for Semester 9? Explain your answer.

Robert is 34 years old and is engaged to be married. He is looking to start saving towards buying a house. He and his fiancée Alisha however have not made any plans towards any of their life goals.

Robert

Robert graduated high school in Romania, and got into engineering school at University of Toronto right after. Having graduated among the top students in his country, he was able to obtain a full scholarship and graduated university with no student debt. He started working for a firm DigitalDesign LLC where he worked as a software engineer for 3 years where he started out with a salary of 60,000 CAD annually. Even though he was set up for success, he did take time away from his job, sponsored his brother education at Carleton University, worked for a non-profit in Africa, and travelled for a year. These left him with a bit lower savings than estimated. He currently has around 200,000 CAD saved in financial assets and earns around 130,000 CAD annually. The company he works for has no pension plan.

Alisha

Alisha finished her undergraduate degree in architecture and worked in Romania for a few years. She moved to University of Toronto for her master’s degree and currently works for an architecture firm that designs factories. She has around 85000 CAD in financial assets and earns 80,000 CAD a year. She also has no pension plan. Like Robert, she likes to travel but also takes a trip once a year back to Romania to visit her family.

The Wedding

They are planning to have two ceremonies, a very small one with close friends in Toronto, which would cost (8,000 CAD). A big wedding in Romania with around 400 guests, which would cost 40,000 CAD. Their parents would foot half the wedding bill in Romania.

Lifestyle and Life Goals

Both Robert and Alisha live in a spacious 2-bedroom condominium in midtown-Toronto and they do not plan to move out of it anytime soon. None of them drives a car and they take public transit or Taxi/Uber. They plan to have only 1 kid 2 years from now and plan to remain in the apartment and put a down payment (50%) on the condo. They do like eating out once a week and Robert likes to go out for drinks with his pals on the weekend. They plan to take two trips a year. One trip to Romania during Christmas and once during the summer. When the child enters university (20 years from now), they want to be able to fund all the tuition and living expenses (totaling 100,000$). When Robert turns 50, they plan to buy a cottage in Romania near the coast for 300,000 CAD.

For Retirement, Robert and Alisha want to have 5,000,000 dollars together. All prices are based on today’s CAD. Robert and Alisha expect their real income to grow by 1% a year. Assume retirement age = 65.

Income Statement

Assume an average tax rate of 40%.

A) Create an detailed Investment policy statement for Robert and Alisha

B) Are their goals reasonable? How much money do they need to save in their first year for each of their goals and the total amount? ( Assume expenses to go up by 10,000$ a year once the kid is born)

C) If they plan to spend 50,000 each year in retirement and plan to leave 500, 000 CAD as inheritance, (to be withdrawn at the beginning of each year) are their retirement goals sufficient?

Yaw Mathew, Kofi John and eighteen (18) others are employees of SameXYZ Limited, a giant coffee production company located in the Industrial Area of Ghana. They work in the coffee factory of the company. In December 2017, a trade union representing the employees in the coffee factory made certain demands on the company, including demand for pay rise. There were negotiation proceedings following which a settlement was reached between the company and the trade union. Under the settlement, the monthly salary of each coffee factory employee is to be increased from the current amount of GH₵1,500.00 to GH₵ 2,250.00, an increase of 50% over and above the previous salary. It was agreed that the increment was to take effect from January 2018. In January 2018, the employees were put on the new salaries but it was observed that the company was making certain unexplained deductions of GH₵100.00 from the monthly salary of each employee, apart from the lawful deductions. When the employees complained to the company regarding the deductions, they were told that the said amount was a pecuniary penalty imposed on them by the company and that the company owed them no explanation whatsoever. They were further told that any employee who was not ready to suffer the deductions was free to resign. The employees are of the view that such deductions are not permitted under the Labour Act but do not know what to do to halt the deductions and recover the deductions made so far. They have come to you for your legal opinion on such deductions and the steps they can take to halt future deductions and also recover previous deductions as prescribed by law

Kate is a 17 years old patient, unmarried and 8 weeks pregnant. She is a rather remarkable girl in that she lives independently while still a senior in a high school. She tells you that she was an adoptee given back to foster care, and then abused in that system. She is now an emancipated minor who works 30 hours per week at a service industry job while also earning a 4.0 GPA in school, ranking in the top 10% of her class. She is college-bound, with a full-ride scholarship for pre-med undergraduate studies at a prestigious university. ?Kate has absolutely no family support, and the former boyfriend who is the father of her unborn child/fetus simply disappeared upon learning of the pregnancy. Your patient is scared, uninsured, and says she doesn’t want to be pregnant or a mom (“Perhaps someday, but not now!”). She rejects the adoption option, based on her own experience growing up, and requests abortion only, at this hospital where she has always received medical care.”

Questions for discussion ?1. Your faith-based health care system rejects elective abortion option. What ought to be done for Kate? And by whom?
