Read the scenario and then answer the following questions. GOOD answers will justify and support themselves with material from this week's reading and panoptos. Use the vocabulary of the units!

Mrs. Mordeno came to Honolulu to visit her sonn, Jose, who operated an art gallery. He married to one of his clients, Beth, who paints in her own studio near his gallery. Mrs. Mordeno’s trip was the first out of the Philippines for her and she wanted to see all of the scenic spots in the islands. Jose and Beth were expected to accompany her at the expense of their own work schedules. Mrs. Mordeno planned to stayonly a week but enjoyed herself so much that she decided to stay another month. She wanted to invite her sister and her sister’s children to stay with her. Jose’s apartment was small and did not have enough room for all of them and Jose was expected to pay the travel expenses for all. He tried to explain the situation to his mother. She seemed to accept his tactfully presented arguments and appeared to be satisfied for a few days. Then one day she packed up and returned home.

1. In your estimation, why did Mrs. Mordeno leave? (all you have to do here is make an X next to your answer.

______Mrs. M had other plans and just changed her mind

______ Jose’s inhospitality hurt her and she considered him disrespectful

______ She felt guilty for imposing

______Unable to deal with the pressures of Hawaii, she decided to leave

2. What do you think Mrs. Mordeno's expectations were as a product of collectivist world view? Why? (how did cultural world view factor into her expectations?) (This is one of the 'money' questions for this assignment--I am expecting you to dazzle me here with your ability to apply concepts from unit I (worldview) and III (what has been discussed in regards to family) to support your answer.

3. How do you think Jose viewed her expectations, as someone who is more comfortable with individualist world view?

4. How do you view Mrs. Mordeno’s expectations? Are they different or similar to your expectations when a visitor comes to your home? Are they different or similar to your expectations when you go visiting?

5. What examples of indirect communication do you see in this example?

(Option leverage; straddle payoffs; replication; % margin) In the one-period binomial model, the current stock price of CAT (Caterpillar) is $90. Robert expects that in one year the stock price of CAT will be either $108 (up move) or $75 (down move). The exercise price of one-year European call (or put) option of CAT=$100 and risk-free rate r=2% per annum. Robert would like to construct a portfolio with the stock and cash to replicate the payoff of 1,000 units of “straddle” of CAT, where one unit of straddle is the combination of long one call option and long one put option with the same strike price.

(a) What are the gross payoffs ($) of 1,000 units of CAT straddle in the up and down move, respectively?

(b) How many shares of CAT does Robert need to buy/short now?

(c) How much money does Robert need borrow/save now?

(d) Calculate the percentage margin.

[Note: percentage margin=(equity)/(short position) or percentage margin=(equity)/(value of stock)]

(e) Calculate the current price of CAT straddle (per unit) in the one-period binomial setting.

How would you define a substantial interest in the workings of the firm?

Need this ASAP, I will thumbs up! Please show work, thank you!

1. Jerry needs to plan for his weekend activity. He may or may not go to play tennis, depending on his friends’ availability. If both Andrew and Bob are going, then Jerry will go with them. Or, if Charlie will go, then Jerry will also go with him. Otherwise, Jerry will not go to play tennis. Please design a logic circuit that makes the decision for Jerry automatically based on his friends’ choices. Use A, B, C to represent the choices of the three friends (Andrew, Bob, and Charlie), respectively, with “1” meaning “will go” and “0” meaning “won’t go”. Use J to represent the decision for Jerry, again with “1” meaning “will go” and “0” meaning “won’t go”.

You need to solve the problem by following the procedure below:

1. Derive a truth table for the decision making system first; Please make sure you use the right symbols for the system’s inputs and output according to the symbols given in the description above. (5 points)

2. Use a Karnaugh map (K-map) to obtain the most simplified sum-of-product Boolean expression for the system. (5 points)

3. Implement the decision making system from step b) into a circuit using the following logic gates only: 2-input AND gate and 2-input OR gate. You can use as many gates as you need. (5 points)

c.How will these patterns change during a first/third-quarter moon and what are these types of tides called (1 point)?

American company Software Unlimited is planning to expand its operations to the Bangor Republic where the group is the primary unit of social organization. According to this information, what is a likely outcome for Software Unlimited from operating in the Bangor Republic?

Python

1. A salesman can sell five different items. Write a program that lets the salesman enter the quantity of each item sold, calculates the total sales, and prints as below. Use a for loop to ask the salesman how many of each product he sold.

tem 1 $2.50

Item 2 $1.98

Item 3 $5.75

Item 4 $3.45

Item 5 $4.00

2. Rewrite program #1 using a for loop to run for 3 salesmen and print the total sales for each

salesman as below.

3. Rewrite program #2 to let the salesman determine when he/she is finished entering the

item/quantity.

​Beryl's Iced Tea currently rents a bottling machine for $ 54 comma 000 per​ year, including all maintenance expenses. It is considering purchasing a machine instead and is comparing two​ options: a. Purchase the machine it is currently renting for $ 160 comma 000. This machine will require $ 24 comma 000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses. b. Purchase a​ new, more advanced machine for $ 265 comma 000. This machine will require $ 20 comma 000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $ 11 comma 000 per year.​ Also, $ 40 comma 000 will be spent up front to train the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 7 % per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each​ year, as is the cost of the rental machine. Assume also that the machines will be depreciated via the​ straight-line method over seven years and that they have a​ 10-year life with a negligible salvage value. The marginal corporate tax rate is 35 %. Should​ Beryl's Iced Tea continue to​ rent, purchase its current​ machine, or purchase the advanced​ machine? To make this​ decision, calculate the NPV of the FCF associated with each alternative.

Time spent using​ e-mail per session is normally​ distributed, with mu equals 7 minutes and sigma equals 2 minutes. Assume that the time spent per session is normally distributed. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d). If you select a random sample of 200 ​sessions, what is the probability that the sample mean is between 6.8 and 7.2 ​minutes?

For this week's blog, you will compose a professional philosophy statement, sometimes referred to as a work statement. This can be a valuable document to include with an application or portfolio, but it is also helpful preparation for interview questions.  This statement will be included as part of your final project/e-portfolio that is due in week four (note the duck icon). Your professional philosophy statement should be 250-500 words.

As you consider what to include in your statement, keep in mind the things that employers find valuable; for example: organization, resourcefulness, work ethic, creativity, motivation, perseverance, adaptability, strong written and verbal communication, and so on. You can address technical skills that you possess, but do not overlook “soft” skills like solid time-management and those listed above.  

Do not simply detail your work experience; that is what your resume is for. Instead, the professional philosophy statement should encapsulate your personal perspective or approach to the work you do (or hope to do once you enter your field). What do you bring to the workplace that is unique and which will help you and your colleagues succeed?  

Q1: what does the efficient frontier represents?

Q2: how do we estimate the return and standard deviation of a newly built portfolio from analyzing the stocks in that portfolio?

Q3: in the regression equation, what is meant by a regression that has an R-square with 0.95 and how does it compare with a regression with a R-square of 0.30?

Q4: why do we use adjusted beta?

Q5: what is the information ratio and why do we use it?

What in your opinion are the 5 elements that absolutely must to be included in a Final Business Idea Presentation?

You will implement the MyList ADT according to the following:

1. MyList must implement the List interface. It will look something like below:

public class MyList<E> implements List<E> {

... } Note: As said in the class, when implementing an interface, you have to implement each method in it. There are a lot of methods in the List interface. We are going to address this issue below.

2. The initial capacity of MyList must be 2. This is not an ideal initial capacity. A smaller initial

capacity allows us to test out our code more quickly.

3. You must implement the following methods:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked") public MyList() {

... } public int size() {

... } public boolean isEmpty() {

... } public boolean add(E e) {

... } public void add(int index, E element) {

... } public E get(int index) {

... } public E set(int index, E element) {

... } public E remove(int index) {

... } You can choose to implement any other methods as you need – private or public. For any method you don’t need but is required by the List interface, you can stub them out like below:

public void clear() {

StackTraceElement[] stackTrace =

new Throwable().getStackTrace(); String methodName = stackTrace[0].getMethodName(); throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Method '"

+ methodName + "' not implemented!"); }

4. There is at least one place where you will encounter an avoidable “unchecked” compiler warning. To get a clean compilation, use: @SuppressWarnings("unchecked").

But don’t abuse it for any other places where a warning is avoidable but due to your questionable coding skills.
