Several years ago, your client, Brooks Robinson, started an office cleaning service. His business was very successful, owing much to his legacy as the greatest defensive third baseman in major league history and his nickname, “The Human Vacuum Cleaner.” Brooks operated his business as a sole proprietorship and used the cash method of accounting. Brooks was advised by his attorney that it is too risky to operate his business as a sole proprietorship and that he should incorporate to limit his liability. Brooks has come to you for advice on the tax implications of incorporation. His balance sheet is presented below. Under the terms of the incorporation, Brooks would transfer the assets to the corporation in return for 100 percent of the company’s common stock. The corporation would also assume the company’s liabilities (payables and mortgage).
How much, if any, gain or loss (on a per asset basis) will Brooks
recognize if he had taken back a 10-year note worth $79,000 plus
stock worth $93,000 plus the liability assumption?

a) How can you move a spacecraft just with solar radiation?
b) Explain how nanoparticle sunscreens can be transparent to the human eye, but still protect the skin.
c) What are the two main ways that nanoparticle sunscreens containing TiO2 or ZnO can protect your skin from ultraviolet radiation? [Note: the UV wavelengths of most concern are labelled UV-A (400-315nm) and UV-B (315-280nm)].
d) What is the largest size of TiO2 nanoparticle that could be used to make a transparent sunscreen (before to apply it)? [Hint: use the size parameter and wavelength of 500 nm]
e) What other factors would you need to consider before reducing the particle size to make a sunscreen transparent?
f) What colour would be the sky at noon (assuming normal incidence of the sun rays) if the atmosphere was made by 10 um particles?
g) Explain why is possible to do sensing with plasmonic nanoparticles.
h) Explain the working principle of a microwave oven. Would it still work if you doubled the wavelength of the exciting radiation?
i) Is it possible to detect spherical particles in air with a diameter of 1nm with the IR light? Comment the answer.
j) Is the Rayleigh scattering at λ=400 nm greater or smaller than the one at λ=700 nm for equal incident intensity of light? Explain the answer.

Adina, age 32, is a married architect with one child. Her salary has reached a plateau at $85,000 a year. She believes that if she pursues an MBA degree full-time, she would move into a managerial position and her salary would rise by $60,000 a year. Adina wants to maintain her current lifestyle, which already generates substantial yearly cash savings and accumulate the capital to leave to her son. Her MBA course would take two years to complete and cost $52,000 a year. Because she plans to pay for the MBA out of existing savings and would be spending the money to qualify for a new position, she would not be eligible for any tax benefits. Assume that Adina pays one-third of her salary in taxes and her tax bracket will remain unchanged after the raise, that she can earn 6 percent after taxes on investments with a similar risk to her job, and that she plans to retire at age 65. Furthermore, assume that all salary and schooling payments are made in a lump sum at the beginning of each year. What is her rate of return on this investment? Should she pursue an MBA? If so, what will be the value of her human capital, assuming a calculation that incorporates salary forgone and her extra salary from obtaining her MBA upon graduation?

Create an assembly language program on the 9S12 CPU to read switches and drive LED's
1-Configure all bits of Port U for output using address DDRU. There are 8 LEDs
connected to those pins. When you output a 1 to a bit, that bit will be enabled for
output, so when you later write a 1 to a bit in port U (PTU) that LED will turn ON.
2. Switches are attached to Port T. They work by grounding the bit when switched
on, (negative logic): ON = 0, OFF = 1. The PCB supplies pull-up resistors.
3. Read the switches, and configure your program so that if switch 1 is on, you
send out a data pattern which will make the even LEDs turn ON, others OFF.
4. If switch 2 is on, make the lower 4 LEDs ON and the higher 4 LEDs OFF
5. If switch 3 is ON, start out lighting the LED for bit 0, then move the light left until
the LED for bit 7 is ON. After that, turn OFF all LEDs, then turn on the LED for a bit
7 again and move the light back towards the LED for bit 0. After it gets there, turns all the LEDs OFF again, then repeat the cycle until the switch changes).
Note: for all of the above you will have to keep going back afterward and reading the switch to see if it has changed.
6. Add a delay to your program so the human eye can see the operation!

Y is a woman in her early 30's and is being treated for cervicitis and cervical neoplasia, which have no known cause. Y is seeing Dr. T, who has recently tested her for bacterial and viral agents that may be contributing to her disease. She also recently had a colposcopy and cervical biopsy. Dr. T is recommending a treatment called cervical cryosurgery, as all of the other tests suggest no infectious cause and no cervical cancer. Cervical cryosurgery involves removing the superficial layers of the cervix to try and eliminate precancerous cells. Unfortunately, after the surgery, Y's cervical issues return. This leads Dr. T to suggest undergoing another procedure known as cervical conization, removing a chunk of tissue from the endocervix, to send out for biopsy to determine if all precancerous cells have been removed. A risk of this procedure is becoming unable to bear children. If Y wants to have kids, Dr. T suggests immediately trying to conceive, and have the surgery right after pregnancy to reduce the risks.
