Every finance textbook states that the goal of financial managers in a corporation is to maximize shareholder wealth because shareholders are the owners of the firm. Can you think of other goals a financial manager could/should have? Do these other goals also benefit shareholders?

1. The article states that “Uncertainty is, without a doubt, one of the biggest causes of volatility for currency." Explain why you believe this to be the case.

2. Are currency speculators really smart enough, collectively, to figure out what will happen to the value of a currency in the future? Explain.

Policy makers in some states argue that criminalization of drugs is inefficient and that the same level of drug consumption can be achieved through decriminalization, regulation, and taxation. What are the costs and benefits associated with enforcement, prosecution, and punishment with respect to drug laws, and the costs and benefits with respect to decriminalization, regulation, and taxation?

State and Local Tax Question:

What are the macroeconomic effects on theUnited States economy of the increase in tariffs to imported goods from North America (Canada and Mexico) and China? More precisely. What are the effects on total factor productivity, consumption per capita, output per capita, investment and prices (including wages)? Use the models seen in class as a framework to answer this question. When relevant, explain the effects in the long and short run. Be brief and concise. You don’t have to solve or write the complete model but be clear on what model you are using and what are the ingredients and underlying assumptions. Write a short description (in one paragraph) of the changes in the US trade policy (describe the goods affected and the size or changes in tariffs).

As far as I interpret it, the law of ever increasing entropy states that "a system will always move towards the most disordered state, never in the other direction".

Now, I understand why it would be virtually impossible for a system to decrease it's entropy, just as it is virtually impossible for me to solve a Rubik's cube by making random twists. However the (ever so small) probability remains.

Why does this law underpin so much of modern physics? Why is a theory that breaks this law useless, and why was Maxwell's demon such a problem? Does this law not just describe what is most likely to happen in complex systems, not what has to happen in all systems?

Sketch the typical structure of bands for a metal and for a semiconductor indicating which states are filled. Why do metals show the full rainbow upon thermal emission but semiconductors give off dominantly just one color?
