Mandy is a 10-year-old female with cystic fibrosis who weighs 62 pounds and is 51 inches tall and is considered low active.

1-Calculate Mandy’s estimated energy requirement given her DRI and medical condition using the following information (5 points) EER for Girls 9 through 18 Years EER = 135.3 – (30.8 ´ age [y]) + PA ´ (10.0 ´ weight [kg] + 934 ´ height [m]) + 25 kcal PA = 1.00 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.0 < 1.4 (sedentary) PA = 1.13 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.4 < 1.6 (low active) PA = 1.26 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.6 < 1.9 (active) PA = 1.42 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.9 < 2.5 (very active)

2-Calculate Mandy’s protein requirement given her DRI and medical condition (5 points). EER DRI Table

3-The estimated calorie requirement for an individual with cystic fibrosis is two to four times the usual recommendation. How would one know the appropriate calorie level to recommend initially? (5 points)

4-Research nutrition recommendations for cystic fibrosis that can assist an individual with meeting her high calorie and protein requirements (i.e., use the text and reputable websites). What advice could you provide to a patient?

11. Profitability index

Estimating the cash flow generated by $1 invested in a project

The profitability index (PI) is a capital budgeting tool that is defined as the present value of a project’s cash inflows divided by the absolute value of its initial cash outflow. Consider this case:

Purple Whale Foodstuffs is considering investing $2,750,000 in a project that is expected to generate the following net cash flows:

Year

Cash Flow

Year 1 $350,000
Year 2 $500,000
Year 3 $425,000
Year 4 $400,000

Purple Whale Foodstuffs uses a WACC of 10% when evaluating proposed capital budgeting projects. Based on these cash flows, determine this project’s PI---------- (rounded to four decimal places):

A. 0.5055

B. 0.4573

C. 0.4814

D. 0.5536

Purple Whale Foodstuffs’s decision to accept or reject this project is independent of its decisions on other projects. Based on the project’s PI, the firm should_________ the project.(Accept/reject)

By comparison, the NPV of this project is _________ . On the basis of this evaluation criterion, Purple Whale Foodstuffs should_________(invest/not invest) in the project because the project___________(will/will not) increase the firm’s value.

A project with a negative NPV will have a PI that is__________(=0/<0/>0); when it has a PI of 1.0, it will have an NPV ____________(=$0/<$0/>$0) .

Wolff Enterprises must consider several investment projects, A through E, using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) and its graphical representation, the security market line (SML). Relevant information is presented in the following table

ITEM                                      RATE OF RETURN                            BETA

Risk-free asset                                  9%                                          0.0

Market portfolio                               14%                                        1.0

Project A                                              -                                              1.5

Project B                                              -                                              0.75

Project C                                              -                                              2.00

Project D                                              -                                              0.0

Project E                                              -                                              -0.50

  1. Calculate (1) the required rate of return and (2) the risk premium for each project, given its level of nondiversifiable risk.
  2. Use your findings in part a to draw the security market line (required rate of return relative to nondiversifiable risk)
  3. Discuss the relative nondiversifiable risk of projects A through E.
  4. Assume that recent economic events have caused investors to become less risk-averse, causing the market return to decline to 12%. Calculate the new required returns fcor assets A through E and draw the new security market line on the same graph you drew for b.
  5. Compare your findings in parts a and b with those in part d. What conclusion can you draw about the impact of a decline in investor risk aversion on the required returns of risky assets?

A) The resistivity of blood is related to its hematocrit, the volume fraction of red blood cells in the blood. A commonly used equation relating the hematocrit h to the blood resistivity ρ (in Ω⋅m) is ρ=1.32/(1−h)−0.79. In one experiment, blood filled a graduated cylinder with an inner diameter of 0.90 cm. The resistance of the blood between the 1.0 cm and 2.0 cm marks of the cylinder was measured to be 246 Ω. What was the hematocrit for this blood?

B) When the starter motor on a car is engaged, there is a 310 AA current in the wires between the battery and the motor. Suppose the wires are made of copper and have a total length of 1.2 mm . What minimum diameter can the wires have if the voltage drop along the wires is to be less than 0.60 VV ? Express your answer in millimeters.

C) Variations in the resistivity of blood can give valuable clues to changes in the blood's viscosity and other properties. The resistivity is measured by applying a small potential difference and measuring the current. Suppose a medical device attaches electrodes into a 1.5-mmmm-diameter vein at two points 5.0 cmcm apart. What is the blood resistivity if a 8.8 VV potential difference causes a 220 μAμA current through the blood in the vein? Express your answer in ohm meters.

Hasbro is considering a new high-profile marketing project to aggressively market a card game version of Monopoly called Monopoly Deal. The Marketing department would spend an extra $1.0 million per year for the next five years to increase TV commercials and print ads featuring Monopoly Deal. The primary Monopoly factory would be expanded at a cost of $5.5 million to manufacture more of the games. Assume that the factory expansion would be completed in the first year of the project. The Marketing department estimates that the marketing campaign will increase Hasbro sales enough to bring in additional cash inflows of $2.5 million per year for the five-year period. Hasbro uses a discount rate of 15% to evaluate projects such as this one. Use a 5-year time horizon, and assume no salvage value of the factory expansion at the end of this period.

1. What is the net present value (NPV) of the project?

2. Based on this NPV, should Hasbro undertake this project?

3. What is the internal rate of return (IRR) of this project? You can find IRR by varying the discount rate in your table until NPV is zero. That new discount rate will be the IRR. Your grade will be based on the completeness of your cash flow table and calculations as well as your answers above.

8. The Capital Asset Pricing Model and the security market line

Wilson holds a portfolio that invests equally in three stocks (wAwA = wBwB = wCwC = 1/3). Each stock is described in the following table:

Stock

Beta

Standard Deviation

Expected Return

A 0.5 23% 7.5%
B 1.0 38% 12.0%
C 2.0 45% 14.0%

An analyst has used market- and firm-specific information to generate expected return estimates for each stock. The analyst’s expected return estimates may or may not equal the stocks’ required returns. You’ve also determined that the risk-free rate [rRFrRF] is 4%, and the market risk premium [RPMRPM] is 5%.

Given this information, use the following graph of the security market line (SML) to plot each stock’s beta and expected return on the graph. (Note: Click on the points on the graph to see their coordinates.)

A stock is in equilibrium if its expected return_______ its required return. In general, assume that markets and stocks are in equilibrium (or fairly valued), but sometimes investors have different opinions about a stock’s prospects and may think that a stock is out of equilibrium (either undervalued or overvalued). Based on the analyst’s expected return estimates, Stock A is______ Stock B is ________and Stock C is in equilibrium and fairly valued.
