Are America's top chief executive officers (CEOs) really worth all that money? One way to answer this question is to look at row B, the annual company percentage increase in revenue, versus row A, the CEO's annual percentage salary increase in that same company. Suppose that a random sample of companies yielded the following data: B: Percent for company 21 11 16 20 5 8 4 22 A: Percent for CEO 18 5 14 22 10 12 1 17 Do these data indicate that the population mean percentage increase in corporate revenue (row B) is different from the population mean percentage increase in CEO salary? Use a 1% level of significance. What is the value of the test statistic? Select one: a. -0.730 b. -0.683 c. 0.683 d. 0.730 e. -0.639

The financial department of a company that produces memory chips for microcomputers arrived at the following price-demand function and the corresponding revenue function:

p(x) = 75 – 3x price-demand

R(x) = x ? p(x) = x(75 – 3x) revenue function

Where p(x) is the wholesale price in dollars at which x million chips can be sold and R(x) is in millions of dollars. Both functions have domain 0 ? x ? 20. They also found the cost function to be C(x) = 125 + 16x for manufacturing and selling x million chips. Find the profit function and determine the number of chips that should be sold for maximum profit. Find the maximum profit. Find the maximum revenue and the number of chips that need to be sold to reach that maximum. Graph the cost, revenue, and profit functions in the same window on your calculator. (Use window x = 0 to 20, and y = 0 to 600). Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Round the numbers of chips up to the next whole number.

Сompanies depreciate, or write off, the expense of tangible assets such as trucks and equipment over a period of their useful lives. Many companies also have intangible assets that must be accounted for as an expense over a period of time.

Intangible assets are resources that benefit the company but do not have any physical substance. Some examples are copyrights, franchises, patents, trademarks, and leases. In accounting, intangible assets are written off in a procedure known as asset amortization. This is much like straight-line depreciation, but there is no salvage value.

You are the accountant for Front Line Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In January 2000, the company purchased the patent rights for a new medication from Novae, Inc., for $8,700,000. The patent had 15 years remaining as its useful life. In January 2005, Front Line Pharmaceuticals successfully defended its right to the patent in a lawsuit that cost $500,000 in legal fees.

a. Using the straight-line method, calculate the patent's annual amortization expense for the years before the lawsuit.

b. Calculate the revised annual amortization expense for the remaining years after the lawsuit.
