Molly, 28-year-old G1 PO at 40 weeks' gestation with no known risk factors, was admitted at 0800hrs to the Labor and Delivery Unit with SROM (spontaneous rupture of membranes) and contractions that were 4-5 minutes apart. After 3 (three) hours of laboring in the First stage, she was transferred to the birthing suite to birth her baby.

Question:

1. Discuss the preparations required for the woman before she is transferred to the delivery suite
2. Discuss the management of the woman during the second stage of labour under the following headings:

1. Maternal
2. Fetal

You have been asked by the president of your company to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new special-purpose truck for $60,000. The truck falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it will be sold after three years for $20,600. Use of the truck will require an increase in NWC (spare parts inventory) of $2,600. The truck will have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $20,200 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm’s marginal tax rate is 34 percent. What will the cash flows for this project be?

1. In late 2018, Macrosoft Company was sued for patent infringement related to a new software product. At year-end, the company’s attorney advises that a loss is probable under this lawsuit, but it is not currently possible to reasonably estimate such amount.

a. What treatment would this contingent liability receive in the company’s December 31, 2018 financial statement?

b. Assume the same facts as above, but assume that this lawsuit was settled for $5 million after the end of the year, but before the financial statements were issued. How would your answer above change?

A 0.0210 kg bullet moving horizontally at 500 m/s embeds itself into an initially stationary 0.500 kg block.

(a) What is their velocity just after the collision?
_____ m/s
(b) The bullet-embedded block slides 8.0 m on a horizontal surface with a 0.30 kinetic coefficient of friction. Now what is its velocity?
_____ m/s
(c) The bullet-embedded block now strikes and sticks to a stationary 2.00 kg block. How far does this combination travel before stopping?
____ m

A UPS worker places a 5.00 kg package at the top of a smooth ramp 2.60 m above the horizontal and gives the package an initial velocity of 4.25 m/s as it slides down the ramp. After it reaches to the bottom of the packaging ramp, the box slides across a smooth floor until it compresses a spring with a stiffness of 3830 N/m.

a) How much will the spring be compressed before the block comes to a stop?

b) If the spring can do work at a rate of 385 W, how long will it take for the spring to be compressed by the package?

Network Solutions just introduced a​ new, fully automated manufacturing plant that produces 1,500 wireless routers per day with materials costs of $50 per router and no other costs. The average number of days a router is held in inventory before being sold is 54 days. In​ addition, they generally pay their suppliers in 27 ​days, while collecting from their customers after 26 days.

How much would working capital be reduced if they stretched their payments to suppliers from 27 days to 47 ​days?

A firm is considering the following investment project:

The project has a 5 year useful life with a $125,000 salvage value as shown. Double declining balance depreciation will be used. The combined income tax rate is 24% (21% federal, and 3% state). If the firm requires a 10% after tax rate of return, should this project be undertaken?

Suppose the Dutch government issued a bond with 20 years until maturity, a face value of €1000 and a coupon rate of 10% paid annually. The yield to maturity when the bond was issued was 5%.

1. What was the present value of the coupons when the bond was issued?

2. What was the present value of the bond when it was issued?

3. Assuming the yield to maturity remains constant, what is the price of the bond

   immediately before it makes the first coupon payment?

4. Assuming the yield to maturity remains constant, what is the price of the bond

   immediately after it makes the first payment?

In an effort to improve the mathematical skills of 6 students, a teacher provides a weekly 1-hour tutoring session for the students. A pre-test is given before the sessions, and a post-test is given after. The results are shown here. Use a 0.05 to test the claim that the sessions help to improve the students' mathematical skills.
