Solano Company has sales of $800,000, cost of goods sold of $520,000, other operating expenses of $35,000, average invested assets of $2,350,000, and a hurdle rate of 11 percent. 2. Several possible changes that Solano could face in the upcoming year follow. Determine each scenario’s impact on Solano’s ROI and residual income. (Note: Treat each scenario independently.) (Enter your ROI percentage answers to 2 decimal places, (i.e., 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34%.)) 2. Several possible changes that Solano could face in the upcoming year follow.

Create a Netbeans project called LineNumbers

The program should do the following:
–Ask the user for how many lines of text they wish to enter

–Declare and initialize an array of Strings to hold the user’s input

–Use a while loop to prompt for and read the Strings (lines of text) from the user
at the command line. Typically, this would be a 'for' loop since we know the number of times to execute the loop based upon the number supplied by the user, but for the purposes of this assignment use a 'while' loop to practice.

–After the Strings have been read, use a for loop to step through the array of
Strings and concatenate a number to the beginning of each line and store them back in to the array:

"This is" changes to "1 This is"

"The first day" changes to "2 The first day"

and so on…

–Finally, use a **for each** loop to output the Strings (numbered lines) to the command line

You manufacture two products, A and B, each of which you sell for $1 profit. Product A requires 5 blobs and 3 globs, and product B requires 3 blobs and 5 globs. Your supplier has 120 blobs and 120 globs available.

Use the Excel Solver (or graphical analysis) to answer the following questions.

9. If the profit on B increases to $2, can you increase profit by trading 30 blobs for 30 globs?

10. As the profit on B changes from $1 to $1.66, does your business decision concerning product mix stay the same?

11. As the profit on B changes from $1.66 to $1.67, does your business decision concerning product mix change?

12. If the profit for A and B increase to $2 each, will you want to trade excess blobs for globs?

Mary Willis is the advertising manager for Culver Shoe Store. She is currently working on a major promotional campaign. Her ideas include the installation of a new lighting system and increased display space that will add $14,000 in fixed costs to the $133,000 currently spent. In addition, Mary is proposing that a 5% price decrease ($20 to $19) will produce a 20% increase in sales volume (20,000 to 24,000). Variable costs will remain at $12 per pair of shoes. Management is impressed with Mary’s ideas but concerned about the effects that these changes will have on the break-even point and the margin of safety.

A)

Current break-even point_____________ pairs of shoes

New break-even point________________pairs of shoes

B)

Current Margin of safety ratio _________%

New margin of safety ratio _________%

C)

Prepare a cup income statement for current operations and after Mary's changes are introduced.

Use the simple exchange-rate model (supply and demand model for foreign exchange market) to answer the following questions.

2.1. Assume an initial equilibrium level for price and quantity in the US versus China exchange rate market. Plot the exchange rate of US dollars per Chinese yuan versus the quantity of Chinese yuans traded. Then graphically simulate the impact of an increase in tariffs imposed by the US on Chinese goods and indicate your forecast for the potential changes in the exchange rate and quantity of Chinese yuans traded.

2.2. Assume an initial equilibrium level for price and quantity in the US versus Mexico exchange rate market. Plot the exchange rate of US dollars per Mexican peso versus the quantity of pesos traded. Then graphically simulate the impact of an increase in Mexico’s productivity relatively to the US, and indicate your forecast for the potential changes in the exchange rate and quantity of pesos traded.

the shape of the distribution of the time required to get an oil change at a 20​-minute ​oil-change facility is unknown.​ However, records indicate that the mean time is 21.2 minutes​, and the standard deviation is 3.4 minutes.

Complete parts ​(a) through (c).

​(a) To compute probabilities regarding the sample mean using the normal​ model, what size sample would be​ required?

​(b) What is the probability that a random sample of n=45 oil changes results in a sample mean time less than 20 ​minutes?

​(c) Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a​ $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical​ Saturday, the​ oil-change facility will perform 45 oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random​ sample, there would be a​ 10% chance of the mean​ oil-change time being at or below what​ value? This will be the goal established by the manager.

1. Consider the aggregate demand/aggregate supply model of Chapter 10. Assume that the long-run aggregate supply curve is vertical at Y = 3,000 while the short-run aggregate supply curve is horizontal at P = 2. The aggregate demand curve is given by Y = MV(1/P), with M = 6,000 and V=1.
   

a) Suppose that there is an adverse supply shock that shifts the short-run supply curve upwards, to P = 3. What are the values of P and Y in the short-run equilibrium after this shock?

b) What changes (if any) in the values of P and Y would take place going from the short-run equilibrium of part A to the long run (assuming no other shocks occur)?

c) If the FED wants to avoid any changes in the level of Y as a response to the supply shock, what should be the change in the quantity of money M?

You consume two goods, X and Y . On Tuesday, the price of Y (not X!!) rises. On Wednesday,
there are no new price changes, but your income rises until you are just as happy as you were
on Monday.
a) Draw your budget lines and optimum points on all three days. Label the optima M, T and
W.
b) In terms of the locations of the optimum points, what would it mean for Y to be a Giffen
good?
c) In terms of the locations of the optimum points, what would it mean for X to be a normal
good?
d) Suppose that X is a normal good, and suppose also that you consume more X on
Tuesday than on Monday. When the price of Y changes, which effect on your
X-consumption is larger: the income effect or the substitution effect? Justify your answer
in terms of the locations of the points on your graph.

a. 500 mol/h methane at 40°C was fed to a furnace and burned with 15% of excess air at
80°C. The exit gas products comprise of CO2 and CO in mol ratio of 15 (CO2/CO), where
all methane was burned during the combustion. The product gas leaves the furnace at
380°C. Determine the amount of heat loss from the furnace in kW.

b. During the combustion process in part (a), the heat produced is used to heat up the water
to produce steam. By considering the changes of the following conditions for the same
process in part (a), predict the changes to the production rate of steam and justify your
answer:
