In Section II of the text, the following scenario is presented: "Imagine yourself walking across a parking lot toward your car. It's late and the parking lot is poorly lit. You are alone. Standing near your car is a man who is watching you. Are you afraid?" The text mentions that men and women will respond differently to that question. Why is that the case, and what are the effects (policy implications) of that difference?

M14 #20: The quantity of dissolved oxygen is a measure of water pollution in lakes, rivers, and streams. Water samples were taken at four different locations in a river in an effort to determine if water pollution varied from location to location. Location I was 500 meters above an industrial plant water discharge point and near the shore. Location II was 200 meters above the discharge point and in midstream. Location III was 50 meters downstream from the discharge point and near the shore. Location IV was 200 meters downstream from the discharge point and in midstream. The following table shows the results. Lower dissolved oxygen readings mean more pollution. Because of the difficulty in getting midstream samples, ecology students collecting the data had fewer of these samples. Use a 5% level of significance. Do we reject or not reject the claim that the quantity of dissolved oxygen does not vary from one location to another?

Location I Location II Location III Location IV
7.2 6.2 4.9 4.4
6.4 7.5 5.3 5.4
7.1 7.9 4.7 6.1
6.3 7.9 5.5
6.9 4.6

A)  Find SSTOT, SSBET, and SSW and check that SSTOT = SSBET + SSW. (Use 3 decimal places.)

B) Find d.f.BET, d.f.W, MSBET, and MSW. (Use 4 decimal places for MSBET, and MSW.)

C) Find the value of the sample F statistic. (Use 2 decimal places.)

You are a manager who works for Hecht LLP, a local accounting firm. Your client is Triox Co. Triox is a major manufacturer of pharmaceutical products. A significant part of the company's operations involves research and development. Your firm has accepted the engagement to prepare a special report regarding the operations of Triox. (more will be discussed on this in unit five). Any findings in the report will be used to dictate the interest rate for future financing.

You have found that the company is near completion of a drug that is expected to save consumers significant money and compete effectively with the lead brands.

Upon review of the unaudited financial statements, you see a note states the government has provided funding for research contingent on the successful launch of the drug mentioned above. This loan will be forgiven upon successful launch of the product. The loan was not recorded on the books as the CFO of Triox felt that the new drug was near its final stages and would be launched within the timeframes specified in the contract with the government. Upon further enquiry, you also found there have been delays for a number of reasons of the new drug and it is unlikely the drug will be launched in time to meet the terms of the contract with the government.

Required:

  1. Explain any concerns that you have given the recent information regarding the launch of the new drug
  2. Discuss 5 procedures that you would perform to alleviate these concerns.

Please read the problem below. Then draft an IRAC answer identifying all of the crimes. Make sure your answer is following the IRAC format

Angela and Bart are animal rights activists. Angela lived near a horse ranch owned by Chris. She told Bart that she suspected the horses were being abused because she saw people going in and out of the barn at all hours of the day and night, and suggested that they go there to investigate.

Unable to open the ranch gate, Angela and Bart climbed the fence, crossed the yard, opened the door to the barn, and stepped inside. There, they found healthy horses, but also a large amount of stolen electronic equipment.

Surprised to see intruders, Chris, who was carrying a rifle, pointed it at Angela and Bart and accidentally caused it to discharge. The bullet hit the side of the barn near Angela and Bart. The noise startled the horses. Angela and Bart fled, letting out the horses. A motorist, who was driving down the road, swerved to miss the stampeding horses, crashed into a tree, and died.

With what crimes, if any, can Angela reasonably be charged, and what defenses, if any, can she reasonably raise? Discuss.

With what crimes, if any, can Bart reasonably be charged, and what defenses, if any, can he reasonably raise? Discuss.

With what crimes, if any, can Chris reasonably be charged, and what defenses, if any, can he reasonably raise? Discuss.
