You are trying to value “A2M” share today (End of June 2019). Assume the current price of the share in the stock market is $17.15 and that you would like to hold the investment for 4 years. Assume that “A2M” will pay its first dividend ($0.5 AUD) one year from now. The total dividend will be paid as a lump sum (at once). After this you also estimate that the dividends will grow respectively at 30%, 25% per year. After that (starting in time 3) you estimate dividends will grow at a constant rate of 5% forever. Assume that today the Australian treasury notes is 1.5%, the market risk premium is 10% and the beta of “A2M” is 0.8. Based on this price would you purchase the share? Why or why not? [9 marks]

Kenny G spends all his income on two musical instruments: xylophones (x) and yotars (y). Kenny's utility function is U(x,y)=x^0.2y^0.8 and his income is $50. Assume that xylophones cost $10 and yotars cost $10 per unit.

Kenny has a general preference for ________. Since the instruments have the same price, we assume his optimal bundle will contain more_________ . Indeed, his optimal bundle includes________ xylophone(s) and _______ yotars. The utility he obtains from this bundle is equal to ________, which is higher than the utility he obtains from any other bundle he can afford, e.g. the bundle (2, 3) which gives him a utility of _______.

The idea is to design an experiment to synthesize Compound B from Compound A. I have the idea in mind. I wrote out the stochiometry, the reaction mechanism and most of the procedure... I need help with separation and purification of the compounds. I'm using column chromatography for this. I have a mixture of Compound B (C₁₀H₉O₂Cl) - Solubility in 10mL hexane of 0.4 and solubility in 10 mL ethyl ether of 0.8 and also Compound C (C₁₀H₁₁O₃Cl) which is the byproduct - solubility in the 10mL hexane of 0.44 and in the 10mL of ethyl ether of 0.5. How do I go about doing the separation and purification???? I know the tube is packed with cotton and silica or alumina. What solvent do I use and how do I prepare this? Thank you!

Suppose you are the money manager of a $4.48 million investment fund. The fund consists of four stocks with the following investments and betas:

If the market's required rate of return is 11% and the risk-free rate is 6%, what is the fund's required rate of return? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

2. An individual has $20,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 0.8 and another $35,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 1.4. If these are the only two investments in her portfolio, what is her portfolio's beta? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Health Corporation has several notes receivable reported as current assets on its year-end balance sheet. While collection seems certain, it may be delayed beyond one year. Because of this, Jerome, the controller wants to reclassify these notes as non-current. Health’s treasurer, Amanda also thinks that collection will be delayed but does not favor reclassification because this will reduce the current ration from 1.5:1 to 0.8:1. This reduction in current ratio is detrimental to company prospects for securing a major loan. Instructions: 1. Identify and describe more than one ethical perspective in resolving the identified dilemma. 2. Clarify the advantages and disadvantages of implementing each ethical perspective. 3. Determine and support a proposed solution.

A bubble is sphere with 10 mm radius and a density of 1.0 kg/m^3.

This goes up in a glass of water which has Pwater=0.95 g/cm^3.

It starts at the bottom of a glass which is 10 cm tall.

Cd=0.8

Hypothesize how long it would take the bubble to rise to the top of the glass.

Draw a complete force diagram of the bubble, including weight, buoyancy and drag forces. Make sure your coordinate axis points in the direction of positive acceleration.

Write down the equation of motion in the vertical direction, and solve for the terminal speed of the bubble when these forces are in balance.

Assuming the bubble mostly travels at this terminal speed, how much time does it take to get to the top of the glass?

1. You want to study the relationship between fat intake (g/day) and death rate in the Central Valley. Your friend, from PH 109, suggests that you conduct an ecological study first. You found the data and summarized it below. What is the association between fat intake (g/day) and death rate? Explain the ecological fallacy. Please show your scatter plot. (3 points)
