Larry Corp. purchased a capital asset for $184,000 in early 2013. Management estimated that the asset would have a 10-year life with an estimated residual value of $37,000 and would be depreciated on a straight-line basis with a full year’s depreciation in the year of purchase. In 2015, management decides to change the depreciation method to 10% declining balance. This is a change in policy because the change is motivated by a desire to conform to industry practice. The tax rate is 40%.

Required:

1. Calculate depreciation expense for 2013–2015, inclusive, using the old policy and then the new policy.

2. Calculate the effect of the change on opening 2015, 2014, and 2013 retained earnings, if any.

The next day, Mr. Olaf woke early to symptoms of continued swelling as well as pain with blistering, warmth to the touch in the area where his forearm was cut and what appeared to be a spreading red rash. He also was experiencing a fever of 101.1 F immediately made another appointment with his physician to address the issue.

If you were Mr. Olaf’s physician what tests might you perform in order to find signs related to his condition to help you determine a diagnosis? List and describe two specific clinical tests that might provide helpful information.

85. A fuel mixture used in the early days of rocketry consisted of two liquids, hydrazine (N2H4) and dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4), which ignite on contact to form nitrogen gas and water vapor.

a. How many grams of nitrogen gas form when 1.00 x 102 g of N2H4 and 2.00 x 102 g of N2O4 are mixed?

b. Write a reaction table for this process.

Supply and Demand: In early 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the nation and world. In response, many workers moved from in-person working to remote working.
Webcams in particular showed an increase in the amount sold, especially the most well-known and trusted brands.

a. Most webcams are produced in China. The US is currently in a trade war with the Chinese which effectively causes additional costs on the production of Chinese goods through tariffs (i.e., taxes). Suppose after the next election, the US abandons the trade war and removes the tariffs. What effect should that have on the price of webcams?   

b. Logitech claims that it is ramping up capacity but is working to “overcome component shortages.” Using an elasticity of supply argument,explain what Logitech is claiming here. Do you expect that to last indefinitely?

Suppose a developed nation’s economy is showing early signs of a recession. This comes despite fiscal policymakers having implemented a significant tax cut (i.e., expansionary fiscal policy) one year earlier. Since this expansionary policy was implemented, inflation has been rising so the central bank has been taking steps to reduce it back to its pre-fiscal policy level (but not lower). Using the language of the AD/AS model, identify 2 possible causes for the recession, given the facts described above and explain how they might cause a recession.

Question 5 A researcher is undertaking an early stage investigation into the possible effect of a food additive on the weight of rats. The additive is a “designer” chemical aimed at increasing growth rate. Data from the experiment are contained in the file STA201 201960 Assignment 2 Rat Diets.xlsx. (a) Show the data in a structure that allows it to be readily analysed using R Commander. (1 mark) (b) The researcher intends to determine if there is evidence that the additive has increased the weight of rats. State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses in this instance. (c) Show the output when R Commander is used to undertake the relevant Welsch two sample t test, using a 5% level of significance. (d) Clearly state the conclusion for the test and justify this by referencing a value or values from the R Commander output. (e) State the statistical assumptions underlying Welch’s two sample t test. (f) Say if it would have been appropriate here to use the paired t test and justify your decision.

4. EMERGING ADULT CHALLENGES: The time between the late teens and early twenties, referred to as “Emerging Adulthood,” has been identified as another unique period of the lifespan. Explain the difference between demographer’s definition of adulthood and emerging adult’s definition of adulthood. Researchers have claimed that the only thing that is ‘normative’ about this time in the lifespan is that ‘nothing is normative’. Describe THREE characteristics of this period that support this claim. What are two changes in identity development that are distinct to this period of the lifespan? Define who we are referring to when we discuss the “Forgotten Half”. Explain why these emerging adults are referred to as the forgotten half. Describe FOUR key factors that research has identified as important for adjusting to college. Who are at greatest risk for dropping out of college?

McMinn Publications was organized early in 2016 with authorization to issue 20,000 shares of $100 par value preferred stock and 1 million shares of $1 par value common stock. All of the preferred stock was issued at par, and 300,000 shares of common stock were sold for $20 per share. The preferred stock pays a 10 percent cumulative dividend.
