3- Why are X-linked recessive genetic disorders more commonly seen in males?

Group of answer choices

For an X-linked disorder to occur, an individual must receive one allele only found on the X chromosome and a second allele found only on the Y chromosome, which females do not have.

Females only have X chromosomes, and genes on the X chromosome are not expressed.

Females must receive two copies of the recessive allele to exhibit the disorder, but males need only one copy.

The alleles of sex-linked genes are carried only on the Y chromosome, which females do not have.

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $35. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $21.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost.
    Last year, the company sold 41,000 of these balls, with the following results:

 

     Sales (41,000 balls)$1,435,000    Variable expenses 861,000     Contribution margin 574,000    Fixed expenses 420,000     Net operating income$154,000   

 

Required:1-a.
Compute the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
  

  

1-b.
Compute the the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
  

  

2.
Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that variable expenses will increase by $2.80 per ball next year. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $35.00, what will be the new CM ratio and break-even point in balls? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
  

  

3.
Refer to the data in (2) above. If the expected change in variable expenses takes place, how many balls will have to be sold next year to earn the same net operating income, $154,000, as last year? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole unit.)
  

  

4.
Refer again to the data in (2) above. The president feels that the company must raise the selling price of its basketballs. If Northwood Company wants to maintain the same CM ratio as last year, what selling price per ball must it charge next year to cover the increased labor costs? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
  

  

5.
Refer to the original data. The company is discussing the construction of a new, automated manufacturing plant. The new plant would slash variable expenses per ball by 30%, but it would cause fixed expenses per year to double 76%. If the new plant is built, what would be the company’s new CM ratio and new break-even point in balls? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

One Question = Please analyze this case, using International Trade methodology (not a short answer please)...

One Question = Please analyze this case, using International Trade methodology (not a short answer please) The Schwinn Bicycle Company illustrates the notion of globalization and how producers react to foreign competitive pressure. Founded in Chicago in 1895, Schwinn grew to produce bicycles that became the standard of the industry. Although the Great Depression drove most bicycle companies out of business, Schwinn survived by producing durable and stylish bikes sold by dealerships that were run by people who understood bicycles and were anxious to promote the brand. Schwinn emphasized continuous innovation that resulted in features such as built-in kickstands, balloon tires, chrome fenders, head and tail lights, and more. By the 1960s, the Schwinn Sting Ray became the bicycle that virtually every child wanted. Celebrities such as Captain Kangaroo and Ronald Reagan pitched ads claiming that “Schwinn bikes are the best.” Although Schwinn dominated the U.S. bicycle industry; the nature of the bicycle market was changing. Cyclists wanted features other than heavy, durable bicycles that had been the mainstay of Schwinn for decades. Competitors emerged, such as Trek, which built mountain bikes, and Mongoose, which produced bikes for BMX racing. Falling tariffs on imported bicycles encouraged Americans to import from companies in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and eventually China. These companies supplied Americans with everything ranging from parts to entire bicycles under U.S. brand names, or their own brands. Using production techniques initially developed by Schwinn, foreign companies hired low-wage workers to manufacture competitive bicycles at a fraction of Schwinn’s cost. As foreign competition intensified, Schwinn moved production to a plant in Greenville, Mississippi in 1981. The location was strategic. Like other U.S. manufacturers, Schwinn relocated production to the South in order to hire nonunion workers at lower wages. Schwinn also obtained parts produced by low-wage workers in foreign countries. The Greenville plant suffered from uneven quality and low efficiency, and it produced bicycles no better than the ones imported from Asia. As losses mounted for Schwinn, the firm declared bankruptcy in 1993. Eventually Schwinn was purchased by the Pacific Cycle Company that farmed the production of Schwinn bicycles out to low-wage workers in China. Most Schwinn bicycles today are built in Chinese factories and are sold by Walmart and other discount merchants. Cyclists do pay less for a new Schwinn under Pacific’s ownership. It may not be the industry standard that was the old Schwinn, but it sells at Walmart for approximately $180, about a third of the original price in today’s dollars. Although cyclists may lament that a Schwinn is no longer the bike it used to be, Pacific Cycle officials note that it is not as expensive as in the past either.

A simplified economy is specified as follows:

A. Goods market, all values C, I, G and NX values are in billions of C$:

Consumption Expenditure: C = 150 + 0.8(Y-T)Investment Expenditure: I = 1,300 - 420iGovernment Expenditure: G = 340Lump-sum Constant Taxes: T = 340Exports: 90Imports: 10


B. Money market, all Md values are in billions of C$:

Interest Rate: i = 0.09 or 9%Money Demand: Md = 780 - 1,900i


Note: Please keep your answers accurate to two decimal places.

a) Given the above information, solve for the following: the equilibrium Y, the money supply M, the consumption expenditure C, and the investment expenditure I.

Y = 0M = 0C = 0I = 0


Now suppose there is an impending federal election, and the government promises to use fiscal policies to stimulate the economy.

b) Find the value of the goods market multiplier.

Goods market multiplier = 0


c) Let G rise to 420. Solve for the new equilibrium Y and C.

Y = 0C = 0


d) Demonstrate how the increase in G affects the economy through the multiplier. Use three rounds of effects to demonstrate the multiplier effects. Let the first round be related to health care spending, the second round related to clothing, and the third round related to food.

Round 1 -> As the government wants to spend $1 (or $1 billion)

on health care, it demands the production of health care equipment

such as hospitals, medicine, equipment, etc. to be built and sold to

the government. So as ΔG = 1, the production ΔY =

0

. This Y is the

income to the nurses, doctors, construction workers, etc.

Round 2 -> As the nurses receive their new income of Y =

0

, theyspend

0

% of this $

0

on clothing ->

0

cents worth of clothing wouldbe produced, or ΔY =

0

-> this

0

cents would be the income of the

workers involved in making the clothing.

Round 3 -> As the clothing workers receive their new income of

Y =

0

, they spend

0

% of this

0

cents on food -> (

0

)(

0

) =

0

or

0

cents worth of food would be produced, or ΔY =

0

-> this would

be the new income to the food workers.


e) Now consider monetary policies only. Suppose the BOC wants to drop the i to 0.04 or 4%, with G still at $340. Solve for the new I and the ΔI compared to when i = 0.09. Given the multiplier, how much would you expect Y to rise by?

I = 0Change in I = 0Change in Y = 0


f) Given the changes in (e), find the equilibrium Y, the money supply M, the consumption expenditure C, and the investment expenditure I.

Y = 0M = 0C = 0I = 0


g) Complete the following statement to demonstrate how the drop in i affects the money supply, then I, then Y, then C.

As i decreases -> ΔM (Select One) -> ΔI (Select One) -> ΔY (Select One) -> ΔC (Select One)
