Ferry Services Incorporated (FSI) is a public company that has three divisions. The first division provides coastal ferry services on the West and East coasts of Canada. The second division designs and builds ferries for their own use as well as for external customers. The third division operates and manages ferry terminal buildings.
In 2011, FSI anticipates a taxable loss of $20 million due to a major hurricane that sunk one of their ferry ships and caused extensive damage to one of their terminal buildings. For the past three years they have had taxable income of 2008 - $5 million; 2009 - $10 million; and 2010 - $8 million.
FSI has a number of long-term bank loans with Canadian Big Bank. In 2011, they obtained additional financing to recover from the costs associated with the hurricane. The bank requires annual audited financial statements. The new loan has a financial covenant requiring that FSI maintain a certain current ratio, as well as dividend distribution is restricted until the loan is paid off.
You have recently been hired to develop new accounting policies for FSI’s Dec 31 year-end. You have been asked by the Board to discuss alternatives and provide recommendations on the appropriate accounting policies for events that have occurred during 2011. Where possible you have been asked to quantify the impact of the accounting policies. The incremental borrowing rate for FSI is 8%. The tax rates for the last few years were: 2008 (40%), 2009 (38%), and 2010 (38%). The tax rate for 2011 is 40%.
1) A major hurricane hit the Eastern Coast in the fall of 2011. This hurricane was tracking to miss the Eastern Seaboard but had a sudden change in direction. FSI was caught off guard and one of their ferries as well as a ferry terminal was in the direct path of the hurricane. Unfortunately, FSI found out that their insurance did not cover hurricane damage. To cover the costs associated with the damages FSI obtained a new five year bank loan of $25 million with quarterly interest payments. Their cost of borrowing was 8% a year. To obtain the loan FSI had to pay $1 million of transaction costs.
2) The ferry was one of their older ferries with a carrying amount of $2 million dollars. The costs to recover the ferry are approximately $3 million and it is anticipated they will receive $0.5 million worth of salvaged material. The ferry will need to be replaced and construction was initiated in December 2011. The estimated construction costs are $20 million since the ferry will be state of the art with a new weather warning software system. Construction is expected to be completed in the spring of 2013. Until that time a ferry was brought out of retirement. The ferry had been retired due to extensive renovations required to meet environmental legislation. These renovations cost FSI $2 million in 2011.

3) The damage to the terminal was $7 million. FSI leases all of their terminals from Leasing Incorporated (LI). This lease has a remaining lease term of 2 years. Due to the terms of the lease agreement FSI is required to pay a large penalty of $5 million dollars for repairs to the terminal. This cost far exceeds the remaining benefits of the lease agreement.
4) A lawsuit was launched in December 2011 against FSI due to the tragedy of the sinking of the ferry. FSI decided that they want to settle quickly out of court to avoid negative publicity. They have offered $5 million to the families. Their lawyers have not responded to this offer.
5) Passengers can purchase their ferry tickets on-line through Tickets.com. To encourage use of the ferry FSI provides passengers free parking if they purchase an annual pass. Otherwise passengers pay a daily rate to park their vehicle.
6) Some of the ferries contain asbestos. Changes in government legislation in 2011 require FSI to remove the asbestos in 2016. The anticipated cost of removal is $5 million.
7) FSI leases their ferry terminals from Leasing Incorporated. In 2011, FSI obtained the rights to operate a ferry on a new route. They entered into a lease agreement for a newly constructed terminal and the land. The lease term is for 60 years with a 20 year bargain renewal term.
8) In 2011, FSI issued $10,000,000 of 8% convertible bonds at the option of FSI into common shares. These bonds mature in five years and are convertible at that time by FSI into common shares at a rate of 50 shares for each $1,000 bond.

10.45 Is there a difference in the variance of the satisfaction rating of traditional cellphone providers who bill for service at the end of a month (often under contract) and prepaid cellphone service providers who bill in advance without a contract? The file CellphoneProviders contains the satisfaction rating for 10 traditional cellphone providers and 13 prepaid cellphone service providers.

2. Determine the p-value in (a) and interpret its meaning.
3. What assumption do you need to make in (a) about the two populations in order to justify your use of the F test?
4. Based on the results of (a) and (b), which t test defined in section 10.1 should you use to compare the mean satisfaction rating of the two types of cellphone providers?

This data set was obtained by collecting information on a randomly selected sample of 93 employees working at a bank.

SALARY-  starting annual salary at the time of hire

EDUC  -  number of years of schooling at the time of the hire

EXPER -  number of months of previous work experience at the time of hire

TIME   -  number of months that the employee has been working at the bank until now

2. Use the least squares method to fit a simple linear model that relates the salary (dependent variable) toeducation (independent variable).

a)  What is your model? State the hypothesis that is to be tested, the decision rule, the test statistic, and your decision, usinga level of significance of 5%.

b)  What percentage of the variation in salary has been explained by the regression?

c) Provide a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true slope value.

d) Based on your model, what is the expected salary of a new hire with 12 years of education

Write a C++ program that prints a calendar for a given year.

ONLY USING "#include<iostream>" and "#include<cmath>" The program prompts the user for two inputs:

      1) The year for which you are generating the calendar.
      2) The day of the week that January first is on, you will use the following notation to set the day of the week:

      0 Sunday                     1 Monday                   2 Tuesday                   3 Wednesday
      4 Thursday                 5 Friday                      6 Saturday

Your program should generate a calendar similar to the one shown in the example output below. The calendar should be printed on the screen. Your program should be able to handle leap years. A leap year is a year in which we have 466 days. That extra day comes at the end of February. Thus, a leap year has 466 days with 29 days in February. A century year is a leap year if it is divisible by 400. Other years divisible by 4 but not by 100 are also leap years.

Example: Year 2000 is a leap year because it is divisible by 400.  Year 2004 is a leap year because it is divisible by 4 but not by 100.

Your program should clearly describe the functionality of each function and should display the instructions on how to run the program.

Sample Input:

Enter the year for which you wish to generate the calendar: 2018
Enter the day of the week that January first is on: 1

Sample output:

A paper company requires that the true median height of pine trees exceed 40 feet before they are harvested. A penalty is assigned if the median height is less than 40 feet. The management wants to avoid this penalty. A sample of 24 trees in one large plot is selected, and 7 of them are over 40 feet. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test to determine if the median height of pine trees in the plot is less than 40 feet. The estimated median is 35 feet. Do not assume normality. Let a = 0.05.
