Consider two bonds, one issued in euros in Germany, and one issued in dollars in the US.

Assume that both government securities are one-year bonds – paying the face value of the bond

one year from now. The exchange rate, E, stands at 0.75 euros per dollar.

The face values and prices on the two bonds are given by:

US:
Face Value: $10,000 Price: $9,615.38

Germany:
Face Value: $10,000 euros : 9,433.96 euros

a.Compute the nominal interest rate on the bonds.

b. Compute the expected exchange rate next year consistent with uncovered interest parity.

c. If you expect the dollar to depreciate relative to the euro, which bond should you buy?

d. Assume that you are a US investor and you exchange dollars for euros and purchase the

German bond today. One year from now, it turns out that the exchange rate, E, is actually

0.72 (.72 euros buys one dollar). What is your realized rate of return in dollars compared to

the realized rate of return you would have made had you held the US bond?

Smoking remains more common in much of Europe than in the United States. In the United States, there is a strong relationship between education and smoking: well-educated people are less likely to smoke. Does a similar relationship hold in France? Here is a two-way table of the level of education and smoking status (nonsmoker, former smoker, moderate smoker, heavy smoker) of a sample of 467 French men aged 20 to 60 years. The subjects are a random sample of men who visited a health center for a routine checkup. We are willing to consider them an SRS of men from their region of France.

Education    Smoking Status
   Nonsmoker Former Moderate Heavy
Primary school 58 53 41 38
Secondary school 39 42 28 32
University 53 27 38 18

The null hypothesis states that there is no relationship between these variables. That is, the distribution of smoking is the same for all three levels of education.

(a) Find the expected counts for each smoking status among men with a university education. This is one row of the two-way table of expected counts. Find the row total and verify that it agrees with the row total for the observed counts.

Use two decimals for the expected counts and a whole number for the total.

Ali is a student at the University. He recently purchased a car for OMR5,000 to use it for going to the University. Ali also expects that other friends might ask for transportation from him. He expects a total monthly revenue of OMR50. He expects fuel cost to be OMR40 per month. One of Ali's friends is a taxi driver. He offered Ali to take him to University for a monthly fee of OMR10. Because he does not have to drive, Ali believes that he can perform online work that would earn him a monthly revenue of OMR30. What is the differential revenue in this scenario? Select one: O a. OMR40 O b. OMR50 O c. OMR20 O d. OMR10 O e. OMR30
2.The total prime cost of a product was OMR5,200. The variable manufacturing overhead is calculated based on the number of direct labor hours. The variable manufacturing overhead cost per hour is four times the direct labor cost per hour. The fixed manufacturing overhead was OMR2,000. Assuming that direct labor hours were 350 and that the direct labor cost was 30% of direct materials cost, how much is the total manufacturing cost? Select one: O a. OMR12,000 O b. OMR18,000 c. OMR7,200 O d. OMR26,000 O e. OMR28,000

You are a college student, and you have a friend at a rival university. The two of you compete in almost everything! One day, your friend boasted that students at her university are taller than the students at yours. You each gather a random sample of heights of people from your respective campuses. Your data are displayed below (units are inches).

Your friend's data: (checksum: 1213.5)

75.5 72 76.4 69.7 76 74.7 80.5 71.5 73.2 67.3

Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean height between the two college populations.

a) State the parameter of interest, and verify that the necessary conditions are present in order to carry out the inference procedure.

b) Find the estimate for the degree of freedom and the margin of error.

Degree of freedom:   

Margin of error:

c) Find the confidence interval: (,)

d) Interpret your 95% confidence interval in context.

e) Based on the confidence interval, is there evidence that the mean height at your friend's university is higher? Explain.

From inception of operations to December 31, 2020, Metlock Corporation provided for uncollectible accounts receivable under the allowance method. The provisions are recorded, based on analyses of customers with different risk characteristics. Bad debts written off were charged to the allowance account; recoveries of bad debts previously written off were credited to the allowance account, and no year-end adjustments to the allowance account were made. Metlock’s usual credit terms are net 30 days.

The balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts was $114,400 (Cr.) at January 1, 2020. During 2020, credit sales totaled $7,920,000, the provision for doubtful accounts was determined to be $158,400, $79,200 of bad debts were written off, and recoveries of accounts previously written off amounted to $13,200. Metlock installed a computer system in November 2020, and an aging of accounts receivable was prepared for the first time as of December 31, 2020. A summary of the aging is as follows.

Classification by
Month of Sale

Balance in
Each Category

Estimated %
Uncollectible

November–December 2020 $950,400 2%
July–October 572,000 10%
January–June 369,600 25%
Prior to 1/1/20 132,000 80%
$2,024,000


Based on the review of collectibility of the account balances in the “prior to 1/1/20” aging category, additional receivables totaling $52,800 were written off as of December 31, 2020. The 80% uncollectible estimate applies to the remaining $79,200 in the category. Effective with the year ended December 31, 2020, Metlock adopted a different method for estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts at the amount indicated by the year-end aging analysis of accounts receivable.

Prepare a schedule analyzing the changes in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2020. Show supporting computations in good form. (Hint: In computing the 12/31/20 allowance, subtract the $52,800 write-off.)
