Create your own hypothetical capital budgeting project.
A) Make up a company (it could be real or fictional) and make up/describe a potential project for that company (you should be able to do this in one or two sentences…don’t worry about extreme detail).
B) Create a cash flow stream for this project (the cash flow stream should be between 4-7 years in length), a critical acceptance level (T), and a required return (k). (Hint: Your cash flows must exceed your initial investment and your critical acceptance level must be less than the length of the project).
C) Calculate the PP, IRR and NPV for your project
D) For each decision technique, identify whether or not that technique suggests you should accept or reject the project
E) Overall, identify whether or not you should accept or reject the project and why. Note that part D is asking for 3 answers (one for each decision technique) while E is just asking for one answer – what is your final recommendation. Also, why doesn’t need to be a long answer, just a few words.

Lump-Sum Purchase of Assets and Subsequent Events
Carter Development Company purchased, for cash, a large tract of land that was immediately platted and deeded into the following smaller sections:
Section 1, retail development with highway frontage
Section 2, multifamily apartment development
Section 3, single-family homes in the largest section
Based on recent sales of similar property, the fair market values of the three sections are as follows:
Section 1, $669,300
Section 2, $407,400
Section 3, $378,300
Required:
1. What value is assigned to each section of land if the tract was purchased for (a) $1,455,000, (b) $1,799,000, and (c) $1,185,000?
2. How does the purchase of the tract affect the balance sheet?
The purchase of the land total assets.
3. Why would Carter be concerned with the value assigned to each section? Would Carter be more concerned with the values assigned if instead of purchasing three sections of land, it purchased land with buildings?
Carter would be concerned with the if it intended to sell one or two sections and keep others. Carter would want the section it intended to sell to be assigned the value in order to defer a gain.

Both Nietzsche (i.e., his irrationalism/perspectivism), and Marx (i.e., modern materialism) base their theories of knowledge (epistemology) on a similar view of reality of the flux (their metaphysics) - namely, the view that everything is in constant state of change, of becoming. But they draw polar opposite conclusions from this. For Nietzsche he holds the view that there is no knowledge but only perspective, no facts but only interpretation. Marx, however, believes the world is fundamentally knowable, and that vast knowledge about the world is attainable despite the underlying flux, the constant state of becoming of all things. Explain how Marx/modern materialism is still able to account for a knowable world even with the flux, and thus rejects Nietzsche's irrationalism. (hint: quantitative and qualitative change)

LP05 Assignment: Medicaid and HMO Paper
HA3120D - Essentials of Managed Care
Review the following video: Medicaid and HMOs Video.
• Assignment: Should Medicaid and HMOs join forces?
• Write a 2 – 3 page paper in what you find out about whether or
not the HMO’s representative claims were correct. Does an HMO,
enrolling Medicaid patients promise; one, cost efficiency and two
improvements in quality of care? One site you can get started is
The National Bureau of Economic Research. There are many other
sites you can look at to get data about this. So that’s your
assignment. Good idea? Bad idea and why? Back it up with some good
data. That’s all there is to it. Good Luck!”
Consider:
• Would the state save money by enrolling members in an HMO? How
so?
• What would happen to the quality of care? Give possible examples.
Cite your references.

5. A new exercise program is proposed to increase the V02 max (a measure of fitness in mL/kg/min) of men with sedentary lifestyles. The researchers randomly recruited 25 such men from their local health care centre. They measured the V02 max of each individual at the start of the study (pre) and then again after 6 months of participating in the exercise program (post). The data are available in the file VO2max.csv.
