Discuss two key components of adolescent egocentrism according to David Elkind.

Briefly describe the two stages of preoperational thought. Provide an example of children's thinking at each stage.

Can you add code to this so that it finishes the combine function. Given two words as input, the output of the program should be the two words combined together with a space between them. Not allowed to use any external libraries for this assignment.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void combine(char* p, char* q){
/* Add the necesary logic here to combine the strings
in the dynamic array p and q by inserting a space
between two words
and write the result back to p */

  
}
int main(){
/* No changes should be done in this part */
char* word1 = malloc(sizeof(char) * 128);
char* word2 = malloc(sizeof(char) * 128);
printf("Enter your first word:\t");
scanf("%s", word1);
printf("Enter your second word:\t");
scanf("%s", word2);
combine(word1, word2);
printf("%s\n", word1);

}

Problem 4-34 Multiple Products, Break-Even Analysis, Operating Leverage Carlyle Lighting Products produces two different types of lamps: a floor lamp and a desk lamp. Floor lamps sell for $30, and desk lamps sell for $20. The projected income statement for the coming year follows: Check figures: 2. $277,778 4. Break-even revenue = $294,118 OBJECTIVE 0 0 Sales Less: Variable costs Contribution margin Less: Fixed costs Operatingincome $600 ,000 400,000 200,000 150,000 $ 50,000 The owner of Carlyle estimates that 60 percent of the sales revenues will be produced by floor lamps and the remaining 40 percent by desk lamps. Floor lamps are also responsible for 60 per- cent of the variable expenses. Of the fixed expenses, one-third are common to both products, and one-half are directly traceable to the floor lamp product line. Required: I. Compute the sales revenue that must be earned for Carlyle to break even. 2. Compute the number of floor lamps and desk lamps that must be sold for Carlyle to break even . 3. Compute the degree of operating leverage for Carlyle Lighting Products. Now assume that the actual revenues will be 40 percent higher than the projected revenues. By what percentage will profits increase with this change in sales volume? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION What is the theory behind the operating leverage concept?

Topic 8 Spending and Output in the Short Run

8.1 Explain the errors of the following arguments made by an economicsstudent:

a) “The textbook said that a higher interest rate lowers investment, but that doesn’t make sense. I know that if I can get a higher interest rate, I am certainly going to invest more in my savings account.”

b) “The newspaper said that the recent recession was caused by a decline in investment. This can’t be true. If there had just been a decline in investment, the only firms hurt would have been construction firms and other firms selling investment goods. In fact, many firms experienced falling sales during that recession, including department stores and firms selling consumer electronic products.”

8.2 Company A in country X is considering the investment in a project with the following (estimated) cost and benefit. The project has a life of 3 years and has zero value after the third year.

a) Suppose in year 0 Company A could borrow or lend at an annual interest rate of 4%. Explain clearly with calculation whether Company A will invest in this project.

b) Based on your answer in part (a) explain how an increase in interest rate to 5% will affect Company A’s investment decision.

c) There is a concern about the unemployment problem in country X and the lack of investment demand is regarded as one of the major reasons of unemployment. Suppose other firms in country X will be affected in the same way as Company A as described in part (a) and (b) above. Use the Keynesian model to explain the process of how a change in interest rate may help to solve the unemployment problem.

8.3 Consider the following Keynesian model: Consumption:

C = 200 + 0.7Yd

Lump-sum tax: T0 = 50

Proportional Tax Rate: t = 0.2

Government Expenditure: G = 435

Planned Investment: I = 300

Exports: X = 100

Imports: M = 0.06Y

Yd: Disposable Income

Numbers are in billion dollars.

a) Each row corresponds to one possible output level. Fill in the remaining columns of the table given the equations given above.

b) What is the equilibrium output level of this economy?

c) What is the level of unplanned investment at the output level of 1500 and at the level of 15 2500? If it is not in equilibrium, describe how the economy would adjust to the equilibrium in each case.

d) What is the change of equilibrium output when government expenditure increases to 560? Explain your steps. What kind of policy is it?

e) If investment decreased to 175 billion dollars under policy uncertainty, how does it change the equilibrium output level? Is the change in equilibrium output larger than the change in investment? Why?

f) What factors would affect the size of expenditure multiplier? Briefly explain

Smith's Inc, Inc., produces widgets for the wind chime industry. The company sells all products on accounts with net 30 day terms. The company has been without someone to assess the financial condition for some time (using only a bookkeeper to post activity to the general ledger accounts) and, therefore, is asking you to help with a more current assessment of the company’s position.

Part A: Below you will find a series of accounts that represent the trial balance of the business firm. These accounts encompass both income statement and balance sheet accounts.

2009   2010   2011

Part B: Based on the financial statements that were prepared with this data, complete the following financial ratio calculations and provide a narrative discussion of these results as compared to industry averages (provided.)

Ratios required:

Ratio Industry Average

1. Profit margin 3.2%

2. Return on assets (use ending assets) 6.0%

3. Return on common equity (use ending common equity) 15.6%

4. Receivable turnover (use ending receivables) 8.5 x

5. Inventory turnover (use ending inventory) 12.0 x

6.Fixed asset turnover (use ending fixed asset balance) 5.75 x

7. Total asset turnover (use ending assets) 1.89 x

8. Current ratio 3.10

9. Quick ratio 1.40

10. Debt to total assets (use ending assets) 37.0%

Your solution should include the required ratios for each year and then provide a narrative discussion regarding the results as they compare to the industry averages. This analysis should discuss whether or not Smith's Inc. is better or worse than the industry average but it should not stop there. You should also include a discussion as to why or how the difference can be explained, i.e., the reason for the variance. The final solution is to be provided in the Word document, with the module and part clearly identified. The narrative discussion will reference the appropriate ratio and the comparison to the appropriate industry average.

Smith's Inc.., produces wind chimes for the wind chime industry. The company sells all products on accounts with net 30 day terms. The company has been without someone to assess the financial condition and, therefore, is asking you to help.

Part A: Below you will find the trial balance of the business firm and need to be placed into the correct statement.

Required: Prepare a Income Statement and Balance Sheet for the company.

Part B: Based on the financial statements that were prepared with data above, complete the following financial ratio calculations and provide a narrative discussion of these results as compared to industry averages (provided.)

explain how the banking system 'creates' money independent from the amount of currency in the economy. In your own words indicate whether this is a major or minor source of money in the economy and whether you think it compares today vs 20 years ago vs how important it might be 20 years in the future. (Is the role of the banking system consistent over time or evolving? If evolving where is it heading, if its not evolving, why has it remained stable over time?)

While we are still far from “Transcendence” -style artificial intelligence — like uploading human consciousness to software programs, at the rate we are going in technological innovations and in terms of the convergence between our noted three worlds ( the physical world, the virtual or digital world, and our very own intellectual world “inside our brain”), we could someday digitize the human brain, and reproduce cognitive intelligence and emotions, machines and computers that can totally replace human insight.

What are the pros and cons of this technological evolution and what kind of implications would this have on an individual and our society as whole?

1. Consider Consumers A, B, and C with the following preferences over two goods.

U_A (x₁,x₂) = x₁²x₂³

U_B (x₁,x₂) = 2x₁+3x₂

U_C (x₁,x₂) = min{2x₁,3x₂)

The prices given are p1, p2 and income for each consumer is m.

Solve for the Engel curves for each consumer.

please be very detailed, thank you!

Consider two solutions, the first being 50.0 mL of 1.00 M CuSO4 and the second 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH . When the two solutions are mixed in a constant-pressure calorimeter, a precipitate forms and the temperature of the mixture rises from 21.5 ∘C to 27.7 ∘C .

From the calorimetric data, calculate ΔH for the reaction that occurs on mixing. Assume that the calorimeter absorbs only a negligible quantity of heat, that the total volume of the solution is 100.0 mL , and that the specific heat and density of the solution after mixing are the same as that of pure water.
