(a) To compute probabilities regarding the sample mean using the normal model, what size sample would be required?
Choose the required sample size below.
A.
The sample size needs to be less than 30.
B.
The normal model cannot be used if the shape of the distribution is unknown.
C.
The sample size needs to be greater than 30.
D.
Any sample size could be used.
(b) What is the probability that a random sample of
nequals=4545
oil changes results in a sample mean time less than
1010
minutes?The probability is approximately
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(c) Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform
4545
oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, at what mean oil-change time would there be a 10% chance of being at or below? This will be the goal established by the manager.

You are advising a company that is working to raise $100,000,000. You believe that it is best for the company to issue stocks and bonds to raise these funds. The key market conditions during the planning period are as follows: the required interest rates on bonds with a AAA rating is 3.35%; the company's stock is currently priced to deliver an 11% return. The company stock will pay an annual dividend of $1.60 per share after one year and dividends are expected to grow by 8%.
1. What is the share price in the planning period?
2. If the stock price changes to reflect a required return of 9% what is the share price assuming the dividends remain as planned (use the constant dividend growth model)?
3. The company bonds will have a par value of $1,000 If the yield to maturity for AAA-rated bonds changes from 3.35% in the planning period to 3.0% when the deal closes, what will the price per bond be when the deal closes?
4. If you plan to raise 40% of the funds from selling bonds and 60% of the funds from selling stock, how many bonds and how many shares of stock do you expect to sell in the planning period?
5. If you still plan to raise 40% of the funds from selling bonds and 60% of the funds from selling stock, how many bonds and how many shares of stock do you have to sell to raise the funds using the new prices on the day the market closes?

You are thinking of purchasing a house that costs $450,000. You have $55,000 in cash that you can use as a down payment, but you need to borrow the rest of the purchase price. The bank is offering a 30-year mortgage that requires monthly payments and has an annual interest rate of 6.32% per year.
What will your monthly payments be if you sign up for this mortgage?
Present the amortization schedule (Beginning balance, Monthly payment, Principal payment, Interest payment, Ending balance) on a monthly basis using Excel.
Calculate the total amount of interest paid throughout the life of the loan.
Create a graph depicting the changes in the portions of interest and principal for each monthly payment throughout the life of the loan.
Suppose the interest rate decreases to 5.47% per year and the length of repayment decreases to 15 years.
What will the new monthly payment be?
Present a new amortization schedule (Beginning balance, Monthly payment, Principal payment, Interest payment, Ending balance) in a separate Excel sheet.
Calculate the total amount of interest paid throughout the life of the loan.
Create a graph depicting the changes in the portions of interest and principal for each monthly payment throughout the life of the loan.
How much do you save if you go with the 15-year mortgage versus the 30-year mortgage example above? Compute the difference between the total interest paid in parts A and B.
