For the next 7 questions, please refer to the following
information.
Mr. Cherry owns a gas station on a highway in Vermont. In the
afternoon hours, there are, on average, 30 cars per hour passing by
the gas station that would like to refuel. However, because there
are several other gas stations with similar prices on the highway,
potential customers are not willing to wait—if they see that all of
the pumps are occupied, they continue on down the road.
The gas station has three pumps that can be used for fueling
vehicles, and cars spend four minutes, on average, parked at a pump
(filling up their tank, paying, etc.).
f. What is the utilization of the pumps?
g. How many pumps should it have to ensure that it captures at least 98 percent of the demand that drives by the station?

The following two technologies provide support for SCM (supply chain management). For each of the following two technologies, provide an example and explain how each example could help to improve Target’s SCM:
(i) Electronic data interchange (EDI) which is a communication standard that enables business partners to exchange routine documents electronically. (Section 11.7, p. 319-320).
(ii) Extranets, which link business partners over the Internet by providing them access to certain areas of each other’s corporate intranets. (Section 11.7, p. 321-322).

Create a form that has the following fields:
Create two arrays of objects, one for US States, one for Canadian Provinces. The object should contain Name and Abbreviation. You don’t need to do all the states or provinces, just a few to make sure your code works. (3 OF EACH)
When the user selects either US or Canada, populate the drop down using the array of object. The first, default option should be “Please Select State” or “Please Select Province” depending on the selected country.
On Submitting the form, validate all form fields. Validate the Postal Code according to the rules for the selected country… US or Canada. You should do JavaScript Validation even if you use HTML5 controls
Follow good practices for JavaScript
Use the appropriate form controls from all the available form controls – HTML and HTML5.
Make the form accessible by using labels.

What are some of the key characteristics of unknown sample of an aqueous solution containing an ionic compound?
Specific questions:
1. Given that the cation is from Group 1A, what is the identity of the group 1A metal ion in your solution?
2. Given that the ionic compound contains either chloride or hydroxide, how can you determine which? (Two pieces of evidence are required and one must be related to solubility rules)
3. What is the concentration of your solution? (Your unknown sample is known to be about 1 M, but you need to determine the concentration to 3 significant figures using titration. You should plan ahead so that you know approximately what volume of your sample you will need in order to use approximately 25 mL of 0.100 M sulfuric acid for the titration).
I'm confused as to how I would go about figuring out these things when even actual information.

You are going to value Lauryn’s Doll Co. using the FCF model. After consulting various sources, you find that Lauryn's has a reported equity beta of 1.5, a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.4, and a tax rate of 30 percent. Assume a risk-free rate of 5 percent and a market risk premium of 7 percent. Lauryn’s Doll Co. had EBIT last year of $46 million, which is net of a depreciation expense of $4.6 million. In addition, Lauryn's made $6.25 million in capital expenditures and increased net working capital by $3.6 million. Assume the FCF is expected to grow at a rate of 3 percent into perpetuity. What is the value of the firm?

Sam's Construction had a balance in its allowance for doubtful accounts at the end of 2014 of $44,500. Sam reported credit sales of $5,000,000 in 2014 and wrote off receivables of $43,000 during 2014. At the end of the year, Sam estimates un-collectible accounts receivable based on the year-end aging using the assumptions provided at left.
What should the balance be in Sam's Construction allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31,2015?
As of December 31, 2015 | Estimated | |
Days Past Due | Receivables | Uncollectible |

Please modify this code to display the "guess" value from the calculation and the "iterations" it took to complete. Please also add the input to the program.
Input: Program will prompt the user to provide the desired decimal-place accuracy, in the range of [1-15], inclusive. User prompt must clearly indicate what is a valid input. User input must be validated - ensuring that the value entered is an integer in the above range.
Sample output for one perfect number would look something like:
This may take up to 30 seconds to complete...
Perfect number: 6 = 1 + 2 + 3;
Initial “guess” = 2.0
Expected square root of 6 = 2.4494897...
Computed square root of 6 = 2.4494897...

Measuring and evaluating performance is important to managers. They need to explore how individual and performance measures and other measures can be combined to create a better tool for measuring past performance and driving the future achievement of strategic goals. The book lists a few different methods of performance measures, which include Lagging indicators, Leading indicators, Non-financial measures, Bench-marking, and Best practices. If you had a choice, pick one of these 5 measures, explain why you would use it over the others, and how you would implement it.
