A spherical snowball is melting in such a way that its radius is decreasing at rate of 0.1 cm/min. At what rate is the volume of the snowball decreasing when the radius is 14 cm. (Note the answer is a positive number).
When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure PP and volume VV are related by the equation PV1.4=CPV1.4=C where CC is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 310310 cubic centimeters and the pressure is 8181 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of 1414 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this instant?
A company's revenue from selling x units of an item is given as R=1700x−1x2R=1700x-1x2. If sales are increasing at the rate of 20 units per day, how rapidly is revenue increasing (in dollars per day) when 150 units have been sold?
A company selling widgets has found that the number of items
sold, x, depends upon the price, p at which
they're sold, according the equation x=20000√2p+1x=200002p+1
Due to inflation and increasing health benefit costs, the company
has been increasing the price by $2 per month. Find the rate at
which revenue is changing when the company is selling widgets at
$160 each.

An American insurance company issued $10 million of one-year, zero-coupon GICs (guaranteed investment contracts) denominated in Swiss francs at a rate of 5 percent. The insurance company holds no SFr-denominated assets and has neither bought nor sold francs in the foreign exchange market.
What is the insurance company’s net exposure in Swiss francs?
What is the insurance company’s risk exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations?
page 770How can the insurance company use futures to hedge the risk exposure in part (b)? How can it use options to hedge?
If the strike price on SFr options is $1.0425/SFr and the spot exchange rate is $1.0210/SFr, what is the intrinsic value (on expiration) of a call option on Swiss francs? What is the intrinsic value (on expiration) of a Swiss franc put option? (Note: Swiss franc futures options traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange are set at SFr125,000 per contract.)
If the June delivery call option premium is 0.32 cent per franc and the June delivery put option is 10.7 cents per franc, what is the dollar premium cost per contract? Assume that today’s date is April 15.
Why is the call option premium lower than the put option premium?

A company that holds the DVD distribution rights to movies previously released only in theaters has the business objective of developing estimates of the sales revenue of DVDs. Toward this goal, a company analyst plans to use box office gross to predict DVD sales revenue. For 43 movies, the analyst collects the box office gross (in $millions) in the year that they were released and the DVD revenue (in $millions) in the following year and stores these data here.
What are the values for
(1) the proportion of variation in DVD sales revenue that is explained by box office gross ,
(2) the sum of squares Y ,
(3) the sum of squares predicted ,
(4) the sum of squares error ,
(5) the intercept A ,
(6) the slope b ,
(7) the predicted sales revenue (in $millions) for a movie DVD that had a box office gross of $100 million
(8) the standard error of estimate ? Hint: Use PHStat to obtain all the values and answers should be accurate to 4 decimal places.
