1. In the early eighties, under the Reagan administration, macroeconomic policies in the United States were characterized by relatively expansionary fiscal policy (fueled by increased defense spending and tax cuts) and very tight monetary policy. Compared to an alternative policy mix which produced the same level of Y using more expansionary monetary policy and more contractionary fiscal policy. Contrast the two different policy mixes graphically and in words. Explain what effects you would expect such policy mixes to have on each of the following:
   1. Interest rates in the United States.
   2. The real exchange rate of the U.S. dollar.
   3. The current account of the U.S. balance of payments.

Use Microsoft Word or PowerPoint (or another software tool approved by your instructor) to create a floor plan of the learning environment that would be necessary for your weekly curriculum theme for the age group you chose in Module 01. Be sure to label your floor plan so that it is clear what activity/interest centers you are including and how they are arranged within the space. Your learning environment should reflect Developmentally Appropriate Practices (DAP), as well as the weekly curriculum theme you have identified for the course project. Below is a list of some potential activity/interest areas that you may need. Note: Not all of the activity/interest areas below will be needed for all weekly curriculum themes.

Early in 2014, Jones Industries was formed with authorization to issue 125,000 shares of $20 par value common stock and 15,000 shares of $100 par value cumulative preferred stock.  During 2014, all the preferred stock was issued at par, and 90,000 shares of common stock were sold for $35 per share.  The preferred stock is entitled to a dividend equal to 5 percent of its par value before any dividends are paid on the common stock.

During its first five years of business (2014 through 2018), the company earned income totaling $3,850,000 and paid dividends of 55 cents per share each year on the common stock outstanding.  

On January 2, 2016, the company purchased 2,000 shares of its own common stock in the open market for $80,000.  On January 2, 2018, it reissued 1,200 shares of this treasury stock for $60,000. The remaining 800 shares were still held in treasury at December 31, 2018.

6. Retirement Planning for Jennifer and Lennon.

Jenifer is an early bird for everything. She starts to contribute $1,000 to her own 401(K) plan right after she joined company A.E. Corp (at the age of 30). Jenifer's colleague, Lennon, is a late bird for everything. He decides to enjoy his life before he turns 45 and then contributes to his 401(K). Over a coffee break, he learns that Jenifer contributes $1,000 per month now. He figured that if he can contribute $2,000 every month starting from age 45 he would have contributed the same amount as Jenifer when they turn 60 years old (he thought they will both contribute a total of $360,000 = 1000 * 30 *12 also = 2000 *15 *12). In this way, he can lead a pretty decent life style before he turns 45 and have the same amount of retirement funds as Jenifer. After his quick calculation, he decides to persuade Jenifer to do the same. 1) If you were Jenifer, do you agree with Lennon? What seems to be the most important factor to determine the end balance in the retirement plan? 3) What other factors are also important with a 401(K) plan? 4) How can you guide your clients like Jennifer and Lennon to make sound financial decisions to optimize their retirement investments? What should you do differently?

You are planning for a very early retirement. You would like to retire at age 40 and have enough money saved to be able to draw $ 220,000 per year for the next 40 years​ (based on family​history, you think​ you'll live to age 80​). You plan to save for retirement by making 15 equal annual installments​ (from age 25 to age​ 40) into a fairly risky investment fund that you expect will earn 12% per year. You will leave the money in this fund until it is completely depleted when you are 80 years old.

1. How much money must you accumulate by​ retirement?

​(Hint​:Find the present value of the $ 220,000 withdrawals.)

Calculate the present value to find out how much money must be accumulated by retirement. ​(Round your answer to the nearest whole​ dollar.)

2. How does this amount compare to the total amount you will draw out of the investment during​ retirement? How can these numbers be so​ different?

These numbers are different​ because:

A.You need to have far more accumulated than what you will withdraw because you will withdraw a large portion of the investment every yearlong dash the balance remains invested where it continues to earn 12% interest.

B. You need to have the same accumulated as you will withdraw because you will not earn further interest on your investment when you reach retirement.

C.You need to have far less accumulated than what you will withdraw because you only withdraw a portion of the investment every yearlong dashthe balance remains invested where it continues to earn 12​% interest.

D.None of the above.

3. How much must you pay into the investment each year for the first fifteen ​years?​(Hint​: Your answer from Requirement 1 becomes the future value of this​ annuity.) ​(Round your answer to the nearest whole​ dollar.)

4. How does the total​ out-of-pocket savings compare to the​ investment's value at the end of the fifteen-year savings period and the withdrawals you will make during​ retirement?​ (Use the investment rounded to the nearest whole number that you calculated​ above, then round your final answer to the nearest whole​ dollar.)

b) Give brief information about NSFNET that form the backbone of the Internet in early 1990s? How many routers were involved?

c) Consider a router that interconnects three subnets: Subnet 1, Subnet 2, and Subnet 3. Suppose all of the interfaces in each of these three subnets are required to have the prefix 223.1.17/24. Also suppose that Subnet 1 is required to support up to 63 interfaces, Subnet 2 is to support up to 95 interfaces, and Subnet 3 is to support up to 16 interfaces. Provide three network addresses (of the form a.b.c.d/x) that satisfy these constraints.

You have been hired as a technical consultant for an early-morning cartoon series for children to amke sure that the science is correct. In the script, a wagon containing two boxes of gold (total mass of 150kg) has been cut loose from the horses by an outlaw. The wagon starts from rest 50 meters up a hill with a 6 degree slope. The outlaw plans to have the wagon roll down the hill and across the level fround and then crash into a canyon where his confederates wait. But in a tree 40 meters from the edge of the canyon wait the lone ranger (mass 80kg) and Tonto (mass 70kg). They drop vertically into the wagon as it passes beneath them. The script states that it takes the lone ranger and tonto 5 seconds to grab the gold and jump out of the wagon, but is this correct? You assume that the wagon rolls with negligeble friciton.

Discuss the similarities and distinctive features of early HTML versions (e.g., HTML 4.01) and the contemporary HTML 5 which is universally accepted and recommended currently for web developers to use. What advantages (and possible disadvantages) may HTML 5 provide when developing specific websites? When might it be appropriate to use XHTML and when and why would it not be appropriate? Compare HTML 5 with XML and one or more other mark-up languages.

Find at least two websites that illustrate your view. Justify your answer.

1. The first bitcoin transaction was conducted on January 12th 2009. In its early days, the value of bitcoins were practically zero (In March 2010, a user auctioned 10,000 bitcoins for a total of $50 but no buyer was found.) By December 17th, 2017, the price of bitcoin has reached an all-time high of $19,783. As of today (March 12, 2019), its price is $3,858.

a. In what ways is bitcoin similar to a Ponzi scheme?

b. In what ways is bitcoin different?
