The Roman Republic was 509-27BC and the period of Seven Kings that preceded it 753-509BC that made up Romes early history. These two periods were distinctly different types of government.

1) Describe the type of government that each period had.

2) Describe the incredible larger than life role Julius Caesar played and how it contributed to the eventual fall of the Republic.

Four drive theory is conceptually different from the Maslow’s needs hierarchy (as well as ERG theory) in
several ways. Describe these differences. At the same time, needs are based on drives, so the four drives
should parallel the seven needs that Maslow identified (five in the hierarchy and two additional needs).
Map Maslow’s needs onto the four drives in four-drive theory.

One of our dealerships has the following average unit sales per team member. We are concerned that the dealership variance and the population variance are different. We would like to be 95% confident about our findings. Historically the population variance has been about 390,000. Use the following data as a basis for making inferences about the population variance. Prepare the information about a Confidence Interval and Hypothesis Testing.

Find:

1. N = ?

2. Sample variance?

3. Confidence coefficient?

4. Level of significance?

5. Chi-square value (Lower tail)?

6. Chi-square value (Upper tail)?

7. Point estimate?

8. Lower limit?

9. Upper limit?

10. Sample Meah?

11. Hypothesized value?

12. Test statistic?

13. P-value (two tail 4 decimals)?

14. Conclusion

We want to compare the variances in two dealerships sales of our A and B dealership. Use the following table to develop a comparison about the two population variances. Prepare the information for Hypothesis Testing.15. Mean of first set?

16. Mean of second set?

17. Variance of first set?

18. Variance of second set?

19. Observations of the first set?

20. Observations of the second set?

21. Degrees of freedom first set?

22. Degrees of freedom second set?

23. Calculated test statistic? (4 decimal places)

24. P=Value? (4 decimal places)

25. Critical value? (4 decimal places)

Mr. Toriop owns 5,000 shares of stock in Yummy Corporation. The company has announced that it will pay a dividend of $5 per share in one year and a liquidating dividend of $50 per share in two years. The required return on Yummy stock is 12%

. a. What is the current share price of your stock? (1 mark) =44.32

b. What will be the company’s share price in one year’s time? (1 mark)=44.64

c. Mr. Toriop wishes to have equal amounts of dividend income for the next two years. How can he use homemade dividends to achieve this goal? Check that the present value of the cash flows will be the same as it is before the homemade dividends. (Hint: Dividends will be in the form of an annuity.)

** It is NOT looking for the 26.22 from Excel or the Calculator, 8 marks is a clear was to see that**

d. Suppose Mr. Toriop is thinking about buying a house for $220,000 in one year. How can he use homemade dividends to achieve this goal? Check that the present value of the cash flows will be the same as it is before the homemade dividends.

**The part in bold is what confuses me, how do I prove this*

e. Suppose Mr. Toriop is thinking about postponing the house purchase for two years, by which time the price of the house will have increased by $46,800. How can he use homemade dividends to achieve this goal? Check that the present value of the cash flows will be the same as it is before the homemade dividends.

**Again I do not know how to check the part in bold

So c,d and e is what I need help with and please DO NOT use a calculator or Excel

Tendons are, essentially, elastic cords stretched between two fixed ends; as such, they can support standing waves. These resonances can be undesirable. The Achilles tendon connects the heel with a muscle in the calf. A woman has a 20-cm-long tendon with a cross-section area of 130 mm2 . The density of tendon tissue is 1100 kg/m3.

For a reasonable tension of 500 N , what will be the fundamental resonant frequency of her Achilles tendon?

Problem 1

An investigator is interested in knowing whether managers who were raised under authoritarian child-rearing practices are more authoritarian in their management practices than those raised in more democratic home backgrounds. He gets 300 managers to complete questionnaires that indicate the sort of child-rearing practices they experienced. From the results, it was possible to divide the 300 managers into 170 who came from democratic homes and 130 from authoritarian homes. The management practices of these two groups were assessed using rating scales completed by their subordinates.

Which statistical test of differences should be used in this study? Why?

Should a one- or two-tailed test be applied? Why?

What is the null hypothesis that is being tested?

If the researcher sets a criterion significance level of p<.001 prior to conducting the study and obtains p of exactly .01, what statement is made about the rejection or retention of the null hypothesis?

Given the information about significance in (d) above is Type I or Type II error more likely?

Managerial Accounting

Three department managers jointly decide to hire a consulting firm for advice on increasing departmental effectiveness and efficiency. The consulting firm spends 50% of their efforts in department A and 25% in each of the other two departments. The manager of department A suggest that all three departments equally share the consulting fee.

You are the manager of one of the other two departments. Write a memo to the manager making the suggestion and explain how you think the consulting firm's fee should be allocated based on what you learned in this chapter.

Please Help!! Thank you so much!!

Retirement plans, are divided into two phases: the payments periods and the pension periods. The participants pay an ordinary annuity during the payment period (say for n₁ years) where upon retirement they are paid an annual retirement pension. Assume the average pension period is n₂ years. If a retirement organization believes that the participants should pay one tenth of as much as they should get as pension every year, what is the value of n₁ and n₂ that keeps the cash flow of the two periods balanced at a discount rate of 10%. Suppose that the sum of payment and pension periods is 50 years.

Use the following information to answer the next four questions.
