Roman Numerals:

I           =          1

V          =          5

X          =        10

L          =        50

C          =      100

Use % for modulus division.

Step 1

  • Write a program that will and display 3 menu options. The options are:
  1. Display the first 50 Roman Numerals.
  2. Enter a number to be converted to Roman Numerals.
  3. Exit.
  • Prompt the user for a selection: A, B or C.
  • If the user selects A then print 2 Columns of numbers on the screen. The leftmost column will display the roman numerals for numbers 1 – 25 and the rightmost column will display the roman numerals for number 26 – 50.

For example:

Number/Numeral                                                            Number/Numeral

1 = I                                                                              26 = XXVI

2 = II                                                                             27 = XXVII

Instructor provided problem: An observational study is conducted to compare experiences of men and women between the ages of 50-59 years following coronary artery bypass surgery. Participants undergo the surgery and are followed until the time of death, until they are lost to follow-up or up to 30 years, whichever comes first. The following table details the experiences of participating men and women. The data below are years of death or years of last contact for men and women. Estimate the Estimate the survival functions for each treatment group using the Kaplan-Meier approach. Test if there is a significant difference in survival between treatment groups using the log rank test and a 5% level of significance.

The fixed costs of AB-25 are $16,000,000. The planned sales mix in units is 80% new customers and 20% upgrade customers.

Required:

  1. What is the break-even point in units for AB-25, assuming that the planned 80%/20% sales mix is attained?
  2. If the sales mix is attained, what is the profit when 150 000 units are sold?
  3. Show how the break-even point in units changes with the following customer mixes (a and b):

a. new 30%/upgrade 70%                                                                               

b.    new 60%/upgrade 40%

c.    Comparing the break-even points in requirements a and b, is it always better for a company to choose the sales mix that yields the lower break-even point? Explain.

Always is a local restaurant that’s really famous in the Bekaa. It offers pizzas, burgers, salads, platters and sandwiches. Customers are offered a choice between dine-in experiences or take away services. Staff is really friendly, food preparation is highly systematic and the kitchen is well arranged and super clean. The business has been operating for almost 15 years and it has been really successful, even when it got surrounded by local and global competitors (Mcdo, KFC, and others). Customers rarely find an empty seat at peak lunch and dinner times. Mr. Moutran, Always’ owner, hired your team as business analysts. During the first meeting, he informed you that he was wishing to expand overseas, preferably in other Arab regions, but that he was open to any other suggestions. He made it clear that he had no experience abroad and that it was your duty to devise a plan covering every single detail of the expansion.
