In recent years, professional sports have incorporated the use of instant replay in order to dispute...

In recent years, professional sports have incorporated the use of instant replay in order to dispute questionable calls by the referees. For example, in the National Basketball Association (NBA) a head coach is allowed to challenge the referees’ decision on whether a shot was made before time expired in the game. In order for the referees to reverse their original decision, the instant replay must exhibit clear evidence to the contrary.

Suppose the referees rule that the last shot of the game was made after the clock had expired. The coach of the team that made the shot believes the shot was made before time had expired, and the coach challenges the referees’ decision.

The referees will review all available evidence (video taken from different camera angles) and make a decision. If there is evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that their original call was incorrect, the basket will count. However, if there is no clear evidence to contradict the original call, the basket won’t count.

Notice the similarity between the decision to change a call and the decision to reject the null hypothesis in a hypothesis test. The process involves collecting convincing evidence that the original call or the null hypothesis is not true. The referee only rejects the call if the instant replay exhibits clear evidence to the contrary, just as a researcher only rejects the null hypothesis if the study results provide clear evidence to the contrary. In both cases, not changing the call and not rejecting the null hypothesis doesn’t mean that the original call or the null hypothesis was correct; it means that not enough evidence was provided to the contrary.

To formulate the process as a hypothesis test, the null hypothesis is that the player   , and the alternative hypothesis is that the player   . The testing procedure then assumes that the player   , with a goal of determining whether there is enough evidence to infer that the player   .

After the referees review video of all possible camera angles, according to the process of a hypothesis test, what two possible decisions can the referees make? (Hint: Remember that there are two possible decisions from a hypothesis test: you can either reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Rejecting the null hypothesis means you have convincing evidence that the null hypothesis is false and the alternative hypothesis is true. Failing to reject the null means you do not have convincing evidence that the null hypothesis is false.) Check all that apply.

Conclude that the player made the shot after time expired

Conclude that they have convincing evidence to support the hypothesis that the player made the shot before time expired

Conclude that they have convincing evidence to support the hypothesis that the player made the shot after time expired

Conclude that they do not have convincing evidence to support the hypothesis that the player made the shot after time expired

Conclude that they do not have convincing evidence to support the hypothesis that the player made the shot before time expired

A Type I error occurs when you   a   null hypothesis. In this case, a Type I error corresponds to the referees concluding that they   evidence to support the hypothesis that the player   when the player actually   .

A Type II error occurs when you   a   null hypothesis. In this case, a Type II error corresponds to the referees concluding that they   evidence to support the hypothesis that the player   when the player actually   .

Create a PowerPoint Presentation that includes a capital budget analysis, an interpretation of the analysis, and your recommended strategy for the Deluxe Corporation.

Deluxe Corporation is a large chain of retail stores operating in the USA. It sells top-of the- range, expensive clothes to a wealthy clientele throughout the country. Currently, Deluxe only operates in the USA. Its current market capitalization is $760 million and the current market value of debt is $350 million.

At last month’s management meeting the marketing director explained that sales volume had increased slightly in the previous year, largely due to heavy discounting in most of its stores. The finance director expressed concern that such a strategy might damage the image of the company and reduce profits over the longer term.

An alternative strategy to increase sales volume has recently been proposed by the marketing department. This would involve introducing a new range of clothing specifically aimed at the middle-income market. The new range of clothing would be expected to be attractive to consumers in Canada and Europe.

Assume your represent the financial management of Deluxe and have been asked to evaluate the marketing department’s proposal to introduce a new range of clothing. An initial investigation into the potential markets has been undertaken by a firm of consultants at a cost of $100,000 but this amount has not yet been paid. It is intended to settle the amount due in three months’ time. With the help of a small multi-department team of staff you have estimated the following cash flows for the proposed project:

• The initial investment required would be $46 million: This comprises $30 million for fixed assets and $16 million for net current assets (working capital).

• For accounting purposes, fixed assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over three (3) years after allowing for a residual value of 10%.

• The value of net current assets at the end of the evaluation period can be assumed to be the same as at the start of the period.

• Earnings before taxes are forecast to be $14 million in 2018, $17million in 2019 and $22 million in 2020.

The following information is also relevant:

The proposed project is to be evaluated over a three-year time horizon. The firm uses Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return methods to evaluate projects.

Deluxe usually evaluates its investments using an after-tax discount rate of 8%. The proposed project is considered to be riskier than average and so a risk-adjusted rate of 9% will be used for this project.

Corporate tax is 25%.

Ignore inflation.

Prepare a Sensitivity Risk Analysis with the following variables: Earnings Before Taxes, Project Discount Rate, and Tax Rate. Your margins of variance are plus/ minus 10%, 20%, 30%.

Your Sensitivity work should include a graph analysis.

***What would you recommend provide capital budget analysis, risk analysis, SWOT analysis, as part of your evaluation.***

3. Determine the company’s margin of safety in units for fiscal 20XX.

4. Determine the company’s degree of operating leverage at the current level of operations. If the company’s sales in units were to increase 30%, how much would profits before taxes increase in percentage terms?

5. Compute the sales level required in units to achieve a level of profits before taxes of $270,000.

6. Based on the original data above, determine the sales level required if the company desires a profit after taxes of $210,000. It is believed that the tax rate will remain at current levels

7. Assume the company is expecting to experience a shortage of its raw materials. This situation is expected to result in an increase in the manufacturing costs of $3 per unit. Under this circumstance, and assuming that the company does not believe that it can increase its selling price, determine the company’s break even point and new safety margin.

8. Management has decided to raise the price of its product to $65 per unit. It also will spend an additional $102,000 per year for advertising. Although it has never paid commissions before, the company has decided to begin paying sales personnel $1 per unit for every unit sold. Determine the new breakeven point. Determine the margin of safety of the company under this plan if sales only reach 27,000 units. Note: Solve this question starting at the original data.
