In the early 2000’s, DHL expanded its worldwide air express package delivery service to the US market in direct competition with UPS and FedEx. After several years and more than one billion dollars in losses, DHL admitted defeat in 2008 withdrawing from most US markets while shedding some 15,000 US jobs.

Think back to DHL announcement of its intention to enter the US market. Various stakeholders would greet the prospect of increased competition differently.

In this discussion forum, address the following:

Choose two of the following stakeholder groups, preferably with opposing views, and explain from their perspective why you oppose or support the entry of DHL in the US domestic market:

• Federal, state and/or local governments
• FedEx and UPS management
• FedEx and UPS employees
• DHL management
• DHL employees
• Labor unions representing FedEx and UPS employees
• Small package shippers

Feeding behavior of black bream fish. In Brain and Behavior Evolution (April 2000), Zoologists conducted a study of the feeding behavior of black bream fish. The zoologists recorded the number of aggressive strikes of two black bream fish feeding at the bottom of an aquarium in the 10-minute period following the addition of food. The next table lists the weekly number of strikes and age of the fish (in days).

Week ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Number of Strikes ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

Age of Fish (days) ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

We want to fit a straight-line model relating number of strikes(y) to age of fish (x).

a. Find ???? , ???? ??? ???? .

b. Find the least squares estimators ?̂ 0 and ?̂ 1 and give the least squares prediction equation.

c. Give a practical interpretation of the value of ?̂ 1.

d. Find ? 2 , the estimator of the variance ? 2 of the random error term ?.

e. Use the least squares model to estimate the mean number of strikes if the age of fish is 170 days.

f. List the assumptions required for the regression analysis.

g. Is there evidence that age of fish contributes information for the prediction of number of strikes? Conduct a hypothesis test using ? = 0.1.

h. Find a 97 % Confidence interval for ?1.

you owe your best friend $2000. because you are short on cash, you offer to repay the loan over 12 months under the following condition. the first payment will be $100 at the end of month one. the second payment will be $100+G at the end of month two. at the end of month three, you'll repay $100+2G. this pattern of increasing G amounts will continue for all remaining months.
a. what is the value of G if the interest rate is 0.5 per month?
b. what is the equivalent uniform monthly payment?
c. repeat part (a) when the first payment is $150 (i.e., determine G)
