8. Vouchers paid: Paid vouchers payable $330,000

Fixed Asset Discussion:

1. Identify a type of company in your pathway that might purchase fixed assets (see suggestions below).
2. List 5 fixed assets that they might purchase to run their business.
3. Select one depreciable fixed asset. Based on research suggest what the cost, residual value and estimated life might be for that fixed asset.
4. Using your assumptions above, calculate:
   1. Straight-line depreciation per year.
   2. Declining Balance depreciation for each of the first two years
   3. Units of Production depreciation (make assumptions about the total expected use and the first two year’s use), for each of the first two years.

A random sample of fifty si ​200-meter swims has a mean time of 3.06 minutes and the population standard deviation is 0.08 minutes. Construct a 95​% confidence interval for the population mean time. Interpret the results.In a random sample of 50 ​refrigerators, the mean repair cost was $136.00 and the population standard deviation is​$19.1019.10. A 90​% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost is (131.56,140.44). Change the sample size to n=100. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost. Which confidence interval is​ wider? Explain.

You are given the sample mean and the population standard deviation. Use this information to construct the​ 90% and​ 95% confidence intervals for the population mean. Interpret the results and compare the widths of the confidence intervals. If​ convenient, use technology to construct the confidence intervals.

   7. The director of career advising at Rutgers want to use decision analysis to provide information to help students decide which degree program they should pursue. The director has set up the following payoff table for 6 of the most popular and successful degree programs at RU that shows the estimated (projected) 5-year gross income that an average student graduating with each degree for 4 future economic conditions can expect:

Determine the best degree program (a decision under uncertainty) in terms of the projected income, using the following decision criteria:

• Maximax
• Maximin
• Equal Likelihood
• Minimax Regret
• Hurwicz with α = .25

If further it has been determined that the probability of each future economic condition is given by:

p(recession)=.45, p(average)=.35, p(good)=.15, p(robust)=.05.   

Use expected value to determine the best degree program (a decision under risk presuming equally likely futures) in terms of projected income. If you were the director of career advising which degree program would you recommend (in particular, do you agree with optimizing the expected payoff or some other criteria)?
