19) A die is weighted in such a way that each of 1 and 2 is three times as likely to come up as each of

the other numbers. Find the probability distribution. What is the probability of rolling an even

number?

20) Suppose you pick 1 card at random from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability

that the card you select is between 4 and 7?

21) Suppose you pick 1 card at random from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability

that the card you select is an “ace” or a club.

22) Suppose you pick 4 cards at random out of a deck of cards. Find the probability that

cards are

the same color.

Suppose that I have a bag of marbles: 2 are red, 2 are green and 1 is blue.

You select three marbles from the bag. Find the following probabilities:

23) You get both red marbles

24) You get at least

one

red marble

25) You get one of each color

26) You get no red marbles.

27) You get both red marbles, given that you got the blue marble

28) You get both red marbles, given that you did not get the blue marble.

29) Two dice are rolled – a red die and a green die.

Let event A := Neither die is a 1 or a 6 and event B:= The sum is even.

Are these events independent? How do you know?

30) It snows in Greenland an average of once every 25 days, and when it does, glaciers have a 20%

chance of growing. When it does not snow in Greenland, glaciers have only a 4% chance of growing.

What is the probability that it is snowing in Greenland when glaciers are growing?

What are the factors affect the choice of distribution channels in international marketing? Discuss, in detail, the logistics in international marketing? In brief, why do you think that channel of distribution is the most critical and challenging task facing the international marketer? Justify your answers through related examples.

Phosphorus exists as several allotropes that have varying properties. The enthalpy of transition from white P to red P, ΔtransH, is -18 kJ/mol. The densities of white and red phosphorus are 1.823 and 2.270 g/cm3, respectively. At what temperature does white phosphorus become the stable phase at 625 atm of pressure? Assume the formula for phosphorus is P4.

A bag contains 3 white chips and 3 red chips. you repeatedly draw a chip at random from the bag. if it's white, you set it aside; if it's red, you put it back in the bag. after removing all 3 white chips, you stop. what is the expected number of times you will draw from the bag?

Your client is facing a possible Personal Holding Company Tax (Section 541) or Accumulated Earnings Tax (Section 531) in 2018. Compute the Personal Holding Company Tax (Section 541) due (and compute the Effective Tax Rate for this manufacturing company) based on the following facts: Taxable Income $522,000 Dividends Received Deduction 47,000 Accumulated Earnings Credit 36,100 Dividends Paid 38,000 Federal Income Taxes 109,620 Excess Charitable Contributions 23,400

While labor productivity refers specifically to the ratio of output per labor unit, multifactor productivity involves more of a big picture perspective. This type of productivity measures economic performance by comparing total production to total inputs that were used in production.

Go to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, and review the section on Multifactor Productivity.

Please provide the following information:

• Explain what is meant by "MFP is also developed for 2- and 3-digit Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) manufacturing industries, the railroad transportation industry, the air transportation industry, and the utility and gas industry."
• What can be learned from these comparative statistics?

In your own words, write a multiparagraph analytical response. Provide citation and references. Do not simpy copy and paste information from sources.

According to the book “The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money, John Maynard Keynes purposed the theory of liquidity preference to explain the factors that determine an economy’s interest rate. (i) State the definition of the theory of liquidity preference. (ii) How does the theory of liquidity preference explain downward-sloping aggregate-demand curve? Explain your answer in both words and diagrams.

Suppose that the the economy is in a steady state where the capital stock per worker is above the golden-rule level. Illustrate this situation. To obtain the golden rule steady state, how should house- holds change their rate of savings? Suppose that the saving rate decreases at time t0. On a graph plot c, k, and i against t and show how the economy adjusts between the original and the new steady-state. Briefly explain why each variable is changing in the way that you have drawn it in your diagram.

Apply variable costs into these questions below. MINIMUM 200 words ONLY!

• Describe a situation where variable costs are applied outside the classroom. In your career? Your personal life? A current event? Another class?

• Did you describe variable costs in a few sentences with enough detail to indicate that you understand the concept?

• Does the topic you described relate to the situation or incident that you described? (For example, do not describe the IMA Statement of Ethics, then explain how you walked into Best Buy and immediately saw a service company, the Geek Squad, a retail operation with electronics for sale, and manufacturing operations as Sony, Toshiba, and LG products are all lined up for sale. A better choice would be to describe the accounting differences between the types of businesses, then describe what you saw when you walked into Best Buy.)

In a well thought out argument provide a clear and detail response to the question below: Mark sure your response meets the expectation per the syllabus in order to get full credit.

Why do you think so many city governments and states seem to "bend over backwards" to get new businesses to locate in their local economies? Indeed, many cities, counties and states offer tax breaks (e.g. promises not to impose local property taxes for up to 15 years), and some provide land free to businesses who choose to locate in their areas.

1) What concept introduced in this chapter could help explain this behavior?

2) Provide examples from your local city where these incentives have been provided. Do you also feel it was a benefit or detriment to the towns economy?
