A report states that the mean yearly salary offer for students graduating with a degree in accounting is $48,744. Suppose that a random sample of 50 accounting graduates at a large university who received job offers resulted in a mean offer of $49,850 and a standard deviation of $3400. Do the sample data provide strong support for the claim that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,744? Test the relevant hypotheses using α = 0.05. t= p-value=

Stock Dividends
On August 1, 2020, Perkins declares a 15% Common Stock dividend. The market (fair) value of the stock on August 1, 2020, is $30 per share. August 15, 2020, is the date of record. The stock dividend will be distributed on August 31, 2020. Instructions: (a) Prepare all required journal entries for August 1, 15, and 31, 2020. If no journal entry is required, state NA. (b) Assume that Perkins declares a 30% Common Stock dividend instead of a 15% stock dividend. Prepare all required journal entries for August 1, 15, and 31, 2020. If no journal entry is required, state NA

More students prefer to take 10 a..m. classes than 8 a.m. classes, meaning that the demand for seats in 10 a.m. classes at the university is higher than the demand for seats in 8 a.m. classes. The supply of seats is fixed. If the university can only charge one price, regardless the time, but wishes to maximize the total number of seats purchased during the day, it should set the price
| a. |
at equilibrium for 8 a.m. classes. |
|
| b. |
at equilibrium for 10 a.m. classes |
|
| c. |
midway between the two equilibria |
|
| d. |
below either 8 a.m. or 10 a.m. equilibrium price. |
2. More students prefer to take 10 a..m. classes than 8 a.m. classes, meaning that the demand for seats in 10 a.m. classes at the university is higher than the demand for seats in 8 a.m. classes. The supply of seats is fixed. If the university can charge a different price based on time, and wishes to maximize the total number of seats purchased during the day, it should set:
| a. |
only one price at equilibrium for 8 a.m. classes. |
|
| b. |
only one at equilibrium for 10 a.m. classes |
|
| c. |
a lower price for 8 a.m. when there is a low demand and a higher price for 10 a.m. when there is a high demand. |
|
| d. |
none of the above |

Network Design proposal for a University
Problem:
Suppose you are asked to design of a network infrastructure for a
university.
The university has 7 departments namely, IT, Finance, HR,
Management, Faculty, students and R&D.
The university also has an ADSL internet connection which is shared
for the different departments.
It is required that all the departments should have
intercommunication.
The R&D department should not have access to the internet. Each
of the department contain 50-100
users.
Explain your design giving importance to the following
contents:
1. The network architecture model you will be choosing.
2. The active network components which are required ( Routers ,
Switches ).
3. The number of switches , routers which are required for the
design.
4. The IP Design schema for the department.
5. Explanation of the details required to be configured on the
Switch and how to create different
departments with VLAN.
6. Explanation of how to restrict internet connection for R&D
Department and allow access for
the other departments with Access control lists on the
Router.
7. Identify the feature on the router which is required for sharing
the Internet for the users.
8. Identify the TCP/IP adapter parameters ( IP address, Subnet
mask, Default Gateway, DNS
Server IP address) for the users.
9. Network Design Diagram.
