University of IT is a new for profit college that aims to serve the growing need of trained IT professionals in the workplace. To expand, it recently announced a large grant from several of the large technology companies that it plans to use to provide scholarships.

There are two kinds of scholarships: Presidential(full tuition scholarship) and Ambassador(half tuition scholarship). To get a Presidential scholarship, a student must have an A, A-, or B+ Grade Point average and an ACT score of 28 or more. To get an Ambassador Scholarship, a student must have an A, A-, B+, B or B- Grade Point Average OR an ACT score of 24 or more. A final piece of data that is to be collected is whether the student has financial need (Yes/No)

Create a program that allows for input of a GPA using letters, A, A-, B+,B, B-, C+,C,C- only.   Optionally you can add a "Lower than C" category. A student can only have one of these grade letter GPA values. Also allow input of an ACT score. Based on the criteria, analyze the GPA and the ACT score and determine if an individual should get a scholarship. Upon completion of determining scholarship eligibility, the program should display on screen one of three results:

• Presidental Scholarship Awarded
• Ambassador Scholarship Awarded
• No Scholarships Available Based on Criteria

The financial need data is not used in determining the eligibility but will be used for other purposes.

Make sure the ACT score is a positive, numeric value. When the program first loads, make sure no default values are chosen. Provide a clear function so that the GPA and ACT score and financial need data are cleared out and another students data can be entered. Provide an Exit function as well so that the user doesn't have to cancel the screen in the upper right corner to exit the program. The name of the program to appear on the screen is "Scholarship Eligibility Application" (without the quotes).

Within the program, comment sections of the code to indicate what is happening. Use Windows naming standards for both variables and objects including the form and application.

- Code must be written in C# in visual studios

An auto dealership is advertising that a new car with a sticker price of $33,768 is on sale for $25,995 if payment is made in full, or it can be financed at 0% interest for 72 months with a monthly payment of $469. Note that 72 payments × $469 per payment = $33,768, which is the sticker price of the car. By allowing you to pay for the car in a series of payments (starting one month from now) rather than $25,995 now, the dealer is effectively loaning you $25,995. If you choose the 0% financing option, what is the effective interest rate that the auto dealership is earning on your loan? (Hint: Discount the payments back to current dollars, and use Goal Seek to find the discount rate that makes the net present value of the payments = $25,995.)

Enter your answer as a percentage. If required, round your answer to one decimal digit.

Researchers are testing the effectiveness of a new smoking cessation program. At the close of the program the mean number of cigarettes smoked for the 328 people who completed the program was 4.3 with a standard deviation of 5.22. The mean number of cigarettes smoked per day for the 298 people who did not complete the program was 13 with a standard deviation of 8.97. Is there a difference between the two means? Use a 5% level of significance to answer the question. Assume equal variances. Give each of the following to receive full credit: 1) the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses; 2) the appropriate test; 3) the decision rule; 4) the calculation of the test statistic; and 5) your conclusion including a comparison to alpha or the critical value.

An octapeptide was isolated from a fungus for use as a new antibiotic. The composition of the peptide was 2 Gly, Lys, Met, Pro, Arg, Trp, Tyr. Edman degradation of the intact peptide yields FDNB- glycine. The peptide was then treated with carboxypeptidase A, B and C, only carboxypeptidase C had any effect cleaving off Pro. The peptide was then treated with trypsin (cleaves at Arg and Lys), which gave two tripeptides and a dipeptide.   The compositions of the tripeptides were Met, Lys, Tyr, and Arg, Trp, Gly. The peptide was digested with chymotrypsin (cleaves at Trp, Phe and Tyr), which yielded two tripeptides and a dipeptide. Acid hydrolysis of the dipeptide from chymotrypsin yielded only glycine (hint acid hydrolysis had two problems).

a. You are in the market for a new refrigerator for your company’s lounge, and you have narrowed the search down to two models. The energy-efficient model sells for ¢1,700 and will save you ¢45 in electricity costs at the end of each of the next five years. The standard model has features similar to the energy-efficient model but provides no future saving in electricity costs. It is priced at only ¢1,500. Assuming your opportunity cost of funds is 6 percent, which refrigerator should you purchase? b. You are the human resources manager for a famous retailer and are trying to convince the president of the company to change the structure of employee compensation. Currently, the company’s retail sales staff is paid a flat hourly wage of ¢20 per hour for each eight-hour shift worked. You propose a new pay structure whereby each sales- person in a store would be compensated ¢10 per hour, plus 1 percent of that store’s daily profits. Assume that, when run efficiently, each store’s maximum daily profits are ¢25,000. Outline the arguments that support your proposed plan.
