The company is considering the introduction of a new product that is expected to reach sales of $10 million in its first full year and $13 million of sales in the second and third years. Thereafter, annual sales are expected to decline to two-thirds of peak annual sales in the fourth year and one-third of peak sales in the fifth year. No more sales are expected after the fifth year. The CGS is about 60% of the sales revenues in each year. The GS&A expenses are about 23.5% of the sales revenue. Tax on profits is to be paid at a 40% rate. A capital investment of $0.5 million is needed to acquire production equipment. No salvage value is expected at the end of its five-year useful life. This investment is to be fully depreciated on a straight-line basis over five years. In addition, working capital is needed to support the expected sales in an amount equal to 27% of the sales revenue. This working capital investment must be made at the beginning of each year to build up the needed inventory and implement the planned sales program. Furthermore, during the first year of sales activity, a one-time product introductory expense of $200,000 is incurred. Approximately $1.0 million has already been spent promoting and test marketing the new product.

a. Formulate a multiyear income statement to estimate the cash flows throughout its five-year life cycle.

b. Assuming a 20% discount rate, what is the new product’s NPV?

c. Should the company introduce the new product?

write a program in matlab to produce a discrete event simulation of a switching element with 10 inputs and 3 outputs. Time is slotted on all inputs and outputs. Each input packet follows a Bernoulli process. In a given slot, the independent probability that a packet arrives in a slot is p and the probability that a slot is empty is (1– p). One packet fills one slot. For a switching element if 3 or less packets arrives to some inputs, they are forwarded to the switching element outputs without a loss. If more than 3 packets arrive to the inputs of the switching element, only 3 packets are randomly chosen to be forwarded to the switching element outputs and the remaining ones are discarded. In your simulation the program will mimic the operation of the switch and collect statistics. That is, in each time slot the program randomly generates packets for all inputs of the switching element and counts how many packets can be passed to the output of the switching element (causing throughput) and, alternatively counts how many packets are dropped (when the switching element has more than 3 input packets at a given time slot) . Your task is to collect throughput statistics for different values of p (p = 0.05, 0.1 up to 1.0 in steps of 0.05), by running the procedure described above for each value of p and for many slots (at least a thousand slots per value of p). The more simulated slots, the more accurate the results will be. Based on this statistics, plot two graphs: 1) the average number of busy outputs versus p, and 2) the average number of dropped packets versus p.

1. Lake Community College gives its faculty the option of receiving the balance of their contract at the end of the semester on May 17, 20--. The faculty can receive one lump-sum payment instead of receiving the remaining seven biweekly pays over the summer. Use the data given below to complete the Payroll Register on May 17. No employee has reached the OASDI ceiling, and all employees are taking the lump-sum payment. The state withholding rate is 2.0% of total earnings; the city withholding rate is 1.0% of total earnings. The biweekly wage bracket is used for federal income taxes.

   To calculate the tax withholdings, you must calculate the rounded tax for each pay and multiply by the number of pays in the lump-sum payment.

   Round all values to the nearest cent.

Iconic memory is a type of memory that holds visual information for about half a second (0.5 seconds). To demonstrate this type of memory, participants were shown three rows of four letters for 50 milliseconds. They were then asked to recall as many letters as possible, with a 0-, 0.5-, or 1.0-second delay before responding. Researchers hypothesized that longer delays would result in poorer recall. The number of letters correctly recalled is given in the table.

(a) Complete the F-table. (Round your values for MS and F to two decimal places.)

(b) Compute Tukey's HSD post hoc test and interpret the results. (Assume alpha equal to 0.05. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

The critical value is_____ for each pairwise comparison.

Which of the comparisons had significant differences? (Select all that apply.)

-Recall following no delay was significantly different from recall following a half second delay.

-The null hypothesis of no difference should be retained because none of the pairwise comparisons demonstrate a significant difference.

-Recall following a half second delay was significantly different from recall following a one second delay.

-Recall following no delay was significantly different from recall following a one second delay.

A wastewater containing 150 mg/l chlorobenzene is treated in a laboratory adsorption unit using a PVC column, 1.0 inch internal diameter, to an effluent concentration of 15 mg/l . Service times, and throughput volumes at specified depths and flowrates associated with a breakthrough concentration of 15.0 mg/l are given in table 1.
