An inspection by a quality officer found that in a large shipment of electronic parts, 0.025 are bad. The parts are tested using a machine that correctly identifies bad parts as defective with a probability of 0.96 and correctly identifies good parts as non-defective with a probability of 0.92.

(a) If a part is randomly sampled from the shipment and tested, calculate the probability that the testing machine identifies the part as defective.

(b) Given that the test indicates a non-defective part, calculate the probability that the part is truly good?

A researcher reported the results of a telephone poll of 1000 adult Americans. The question posed of those who were surveyed was: "Should the federal tax on cigarettes be raised to pay for health care reform?" Of 600 non-smokers, 362 said yes. Of 400 smokers, 80 said yes. What is the test statistic, at alpha = .05, if you want to determine that the proportion of non-smokers who said yes is greater than the proportion of smokers who said yes?

In a population of Siberian flying squirrels in western Finland, assume that the the number of pups born to each female over her lifetime has mean ?=3.66 and standard deviation ?=2.9598. The distribution of squirrel pups born is non‑normal because it takes only whole, non‑negative values.

Determine the mean number of pups, x¯, such that in 70% of all random samples of such squirrels of size ?=40, the mean number of pups born to females in the sample is less than ?⎯⎯⎯.

Arnez Company’s annual accounting period ends on December 31, 2018. The following information concerns the adjusting entries to be recorded as of that date.

  1. The Office Supplies account started the year with a $4,350 balance. During 2018, the company purchased supplies for $17,966, which was added to the Office Supplies account. The inventory of supplies available at December 31, 2018, totaled $3,828.
  2. An analysis of the company's insurance policies provided the following facts.
Policy Date of Purchase Months of Coverage Cost
A April 1, 2016 24 $ 10,464
B April 1, 2017 36 9,216
C August 1, 2018 12 8,064

The total premium for each policy was paid in full (for all months) at the purchase date, and the Prepaid Insurance account was debited for the full cost. (Year-end adjusting entries for Prepaid Insurance were properly recorded in all prior years.)

  1. The company has 15 employees, who earn a total of $1,600 in salaries each working day. They are paid each Monday for their work in the five-day workweek ending on the previous Friday. Assume that December 31, 2018, is a Tuesday, and all 15 employees worked the first two days of that week. Because New Year’s Day is a paid holiday, they will be paid salaries for five full days on Monday, January 6, 2019.
  2. The company purchased a building on January 1, 2018. It cost $615,000 and is expected to have a $45,000 salvage value at the end of its predicted 30-year life. Annual depreciation is $19,000.
  3. Since the company is not large enough to occupy the entire building it owns, it rented space to a tenant at $3,500 per month, starting on November 1, 2018. The rent was paid on time on November 1, and the amount received was credited to the Rent Earned account. However, the tenant has not paid the December rent. The company has worked out an agreement with the tenant, who has promised to pay both December and January rent in full on January 15. The tenant has agreed not to fall behind again.
  4. On November 1, the company rented space to another tenant for $3,171 per month. The tenant paid five months' rent in advance on that date. The payment was recorded with a credit to the Unearned Rent account.


Required:

1. Use the information to prepare adjusting entries as of December 31, 2018.
2. Prepare journal entries to record the first subsequent cash transaction in 2019 for parts c and e.
