Decision-Making Across the Organization Kathy and James Mohr, local golf stars, opened the Chip-Shot Driving Range Company on March 1, 2017. They invested $25,000 cash and received common stock in exchange for their investment. A caddy shack was constructed for cash at a cost of $8,000, and $800 was spent on golf balls and golf clubs. The Mohrs leased five acres of land at a cost of $1,000 per month and paid the first month's rent. During the first month, advertising costs totaled $750, of which $150 was unpaid at March 31, and $400 was paid to members of the high-school golf team for retrieving golf balls. All revenues from customers were deposited in the company's bank account. On March 15, Kathy and James received a dividend of $1,000. A $100 utility bill was received on March 31 but was not paid. On March 31, the balance in the company's bank account was $18,900. Kathy and James thought they had a pretty good first month of operations. But, their estimates of profitability ranged from a loss of $6,100 to net income of $2,450. Instructions With the class divided into groups, answer the following.

(a) How could the Mohrs have concluded that the business operated at a loss of $6,100? Was this a valid basis on which to determine net income?

(b) How could the Mohrs have concluded that the business operated at a net income of $2,450? (Hint: Prepare a balance sheet at March 31.) Was this a valid basis on which to determine net income?

(c) Without preparing an income statement, determine the actual net income for March.

(d) What was the revenue recognized in March?

Bill has bought a new home in Canberra. He borrowed $600 000 at a rate of 3.5% p.a., which is to be repaid in annual instalments over a thirty year period. The first instalment is due on 19 March 2020.

Like Bill, on the situation above, Scott has bought a house in Canberra, borrowing the same amount, and on the the same terms. Scott’s bank, however, offers an ‘interest offset’ account facility with the loan. Like Bill, Scott’s first payment is on 19 March 2020. On the day Scott takes the loan of $600 000 out (19 March 2019), Malcolm gives Scott $100 000. Scott immediately puts the money into his interest offset account. This account also earns 3.5% p.a. (compound interest). Over the term of the loan Scott does not put any more money into the interest offset account. The interest offset account pays interest annually, and its first payment will be on 19 March 2020. a. [6 marks] Draw a cash flow diagram, from Scott’s perspective, that describes the actions of his interest offset account. Scott’s interest offset account pays its interest payments to Scott’s loan. b. [4 marks]What is the amount of Scott’s total loan repayment on 19 March 2020? c. [10 marks] Show that Scott can make the total repayments calculated in part b for only 25 years, and that in the 26th year Scott will only pay $2 047.95 (plus the interest payment from his interest offset account) to extinguish his loan.

Consider the following preferences and election problem. Let us assume that a president has to be elected. 4 candidates want to become a president, who are representing different political ideologies: A is a left-wing candidate, B is a social-democrat, C is a right-liberal candidate and D is a right-wing candidate. 20% of the voters (group left) preference A≻B≻C≻D, 30% of the voters (group social democrats) have the preference B≻A≻C≻D, 10% of the voters (group right-liberal) preference C≻B≻A≻D, 40% of the voters (group right) have preference D≻C≻B≻A. Please note the sign “ ≻ “ means “preferred to.”. In total we have 100 voters.

A What is the election outcome if a pure plurality voting system is applied? How many votes does the winner receives?

B Who will be elected if the Instant Runoff voting system is applied? Who will be the first and second ranked candidate in the first election round? How much votes will the winner get in the second round?

C. Who will win if the system of unanimity is applied?

D. Who will win, if the point-count voting is applied? Please note, the voters have to rank their preferences for the first 3 candidates like, the most preferred candidate get 3 points, the second ranked candidate gets 2 points and the third ranked candidate gets 1 point. The fourth preferred candidate get zero points. How many points will be distributed in total and how much points will the winner receive?

Obligation Debt Amount Min Monthly Amount Annual Interest Rate Student loans $40,000.00 $500.00 6.00% Car loan $11,500.00 $375.00 9.50% Chase credit card $2,100.00 $84.00 18.00% Amazon credit card $1,050.00 $42.00 15.00% TJ Maxx credit card $380.00 $15.00 24.00% You recently graduated with a reasonably well paying job and after reviewing your budget you have an extra $200 a month to put towards paying off your debts as you have built up an appropriate savings. In exactly 12 months, you have been promised a raise that will allow you to put a total of $400 a month towards paying down debts (original $200 plus another $200). How many months will it take to pay off the chase card if you pay the minimum monthly amount listed above on the Chase card? Hint: the first month the interest rate is 18%/12 = 1.5%. The interest owed is 1.5% of $2,100 = $31.50. So you will pay down your debt by $42-$31.50 = $10.50. This means you owe $2,100 - $10.50 = $2,089.50 the next month. (Use a spreadsheet!!). Your answer is between 90 and 100 months!! Use this technique later down below.Discuss two approaches a) paying the highest interest rate debts first or b) paying of the smallest first. Which is theoretically best and which is emotionally best for people. Do appropriate research and reference.

Jojo is looking for his love by sending messages to strangers on a dating application. Because he knows that many people are using fake profile photos, he found a way to find out the gender of the user by their user names. If the number of distinct characters in one’s user name is even, then she is a female, otherwise he is a male. Help him to find out their gender! '

Format Input:

The first line is an integer T representing the number of test cases. The next T lines each consist of a string S representing the user name in the dating application.

Format Output:

For each test case output “Case #X: ”, where X is the case number, followed by “Yay” if the user is a female, or “Ewwww” if the user is a male.

Constraints

• 1 ≤ T ≤ 100

• 1 ≤ |S| ≤ 105

• S only consist of lowercase letter.

Sample Input 1 (standard input):

1

abb

Sample Output 1 (standard output):

Case #1: Yay

Sample Input 2 (standard input):

2
