a.) The wheel does not stop in any of the 5 attempts in the red sector.

Lois Company Ltd is a fast-growing Ghanaian Multinational Company looking for short term working capital loan to support its expansion to other West African Countries. You have just been hired as a Senior Financial Analyst to help the firm secure a cheap source of funding to achieve its objective. The CEO of this company is concerned about the high interest rates in Ghana and has asked you to borrow in Dollars since USD interest rates have become cheaper since the beginning of the Covid-19 Pandemic and that an arbitrage opportunity exist. You have your own reservations about borrowing in USD due to exchange rate risk and looking for figures to explain to her. You had a chat with your relationship manager of your bank and they are willing to lend $20 million to you for 1 year at an interest rate of 5% which appears to be far better than the current 1 year cedi lending rate of 17.50% on the domestic market. Your intention is to borrow in USD and convert this to Ghana Cedis and use for your expansion program. The current exchange rate is 5.80 per USD and is forecasted to be 6.45 per USD in a year’s time. i. Calculate the effective annual Financing Cost of the USD Loan and advise Lois whether it is prudent to borrow USD at this stage. What is the gain/loss if Lois decide to borrow in USD? ii. Assume that Interest Rate Parity (IRP) holds and that you intend to hedge the exchange rate risk by entering into a 1 year Forward transaction with your Bank. What will be the effective annual interest rate in this case? Explain your answer

ASSIGNMENT:

Enter the hypothetical data below in SPSS to use for the assignment.  The SPSS commands: 'file', 'new', 'data' will create a spreadsheet in which to enter the data below (manually).

In this experiment, all participants rated the credibility of fake news stories on a scale of 1 to 10, with higher numbers indicating greater belief. Subjects made ratings after writing a control essay about doing something successfully, and also after writing an essay about an incident in which they were bullied, rejected or otherwise socially excluded (the treatment condition).

1. In conceptual terms, the hypothesis is that social exclusion increases belief in fake news. State this hypothesis in statistical terms and include the correct notation. [1 point]

2. Explain why the t test for dependent (paired) samples is the appropriate test for the hypothesis in terms of the formula for t. [1 point]

3. Compute the means, standard deviations. [1 point]

4. Compute and interpret the effect size (d) for the differences between means. [2 points]

5. Summarize the results of the t test. Also include the correct notation. Are the results of the test significant, i.e., likely in the population? Why or why not? Should you reject or retain the null hypothesis? [4 points]

6. Summarize the results in terms of the conceptual hypothesis and variables. Explain why you think the results have practical meaning (or not). Refer to both t and d in your answer. [1 point]

Part 2: Discussion

Step 1: Post on the discussion forum.

• Come up with a situation involving a proportion you could test
• Define p in words for your situation
• Pretend you conducted a random sample, and give the results

For example, I might post:

I have noticed more gray hairs on my head in the last few years, and I wonder if the proportion is over 10%.

p = the proportion of my hairs that are gray

To test this, I removed all the hair from a 1in² section of my scalp that I chose at random (a cluster sample) and counted a total of 699 hairs, of which 55 were gray.

(You don’t need to detail your sampling method, but you can if you want to.) (Also, I did not really do that.)

Step 2: Reply to someone’s post:

• Write hypotheses for their situation
• Test their hypothesis using the data they provided
  • Note what program you used for the calculations
  • Include the value of the test statistic (z) if your program gives it to you
  • Include the p-value
• Make a conclusion that includes the context of their situation

hello,
I have noticed the past few weeks that more stores have toilet paper in stock all the time now and I want to know if the proportion of stores in Multnomah, Washington, and Clackamas counties that have toilet paper in stock is over 65%. I visited 113 stores and found that 79 of them had toilet paper in stock.

Violet almost got caught the last time she took Victoria's box of red vines. But when Victoria gets a new 200 pound box of red vines (90.7 kg) for her birthday, Violet can't resist. As the party winds down and people begin to leave, Violet waits until Victoria goes to the bathroom before making her move. But with a box this big Violet decides to pull it instead. She ties the ribbons from Victoria's birthday presents together, wraps it around the box of red vines, and pulls with a force of 800 N at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the carpet is 0.9, what is the acceleration of Victoria's box of red vines?

Charge 1 is 200 μC and is at the origin (0 m, 0m)

Charge 2 is 75 μC and is at point (3 m, 4 m)

What is the force on Charge 2 in terms of its x (i) and y (j) components?

Part 1 Review the barriers to communication (filtering, emotions, information overload, differing perceptions). Provide at least one strategy for counteracting or overcoming each one of these barriers. Part 2 Identifying Your Barriers List two recent situations in which you experienced one or more of the barriers to a communication described in the chapter (filtering, emotions, poor listening, information overload, differing perceptions). Analyzing Your Barriers Next, explain in detail how these barriers disrupted the communication process in each situation. Overcoming Your Barriers Finally, list some specific ways that you could overcome or avoid these barriers to communication in similar situations in the future.

The following table shows the number of marriages in a given State broken down by age groups and gender:

                                                            AGE at the time of the marriage

Use the table to answer questions (1) to (11).

1. Use the information in the table to fill in the blanks in the row and column totals.
   

2. How many people (male and female) got married in the State?

3. If a person that was married was randomly chosen, what is the probability that the person was a female less than 20 years old? Express your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest whole percent.

4. If a person that was married was randomly chosen, what is the probability that the person was a male less than 20 years old? Express your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest whole percent.
5. If a person that was married was randomly chosen, what is the probability that the person was between the ages of 25 and 34? Express your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest whole percent.

6. Of the people over the age of 45 who got married, what percentage was female? What percentage was male? Express your answer as a percent rounded to the nearest whole percent.

7. Given that a person married was less than twenty years old, what is the probability that the person was male?

8. Given that a person married was female, what is the probability that the person was between the ages of 35 and 44?

9. If a person that was married was randomly chosen, what is the probability that the person was over the age of 45 or female?

10. If a person that was married was randomly chosen, what is the probability that the person is male and between the ages of 25 and 34?

11. Describe two events, A and B, which are mutually exclusive for the number of marriages in the State. Calculate the probability of each event, and the probability of A or B occurring.
