Code a class encapsulating a queue of foods using a circular array. A food has the following attributes: name, the number of calories per serving and the number of servings per container. Limit your queue to 20 food items. In addition to writing the enqueue, dequeue, and peek methods, you will write two more methods: a method that returns the average calories per serving of all the foods in the queue; a method that returns the food items with the highest total calories (ie: number of calories per serving * servings per container). Write a program to test your queue with all these methods

A billiard ball of mass mA = 0.400 kg moving with a speed vA,0 = 1.80 m/s strikes a second ball, initially at rest, of mass mB = 0.500 kg. As a result of the collision, the first ball is deflected off at an angle of 30.0 o with a speed vA = 1.10 m/s.

a) What is the speed vB and angle of deflection θB of ball B? Take the x axis to be the direction of motion of ball A before the collision.

b) Is the collision elastic? You must support your answer with a calculation.

Section I: Derivation of Hicksian Demand Curve

Joyce’s utility function is as follows:

U= 10X³Y²

Where, X, is the quantity of good X consumed, Y, is the quantity of good Y consumed and, U, is Joyce’s utility function.

The general budget constraint for the two goods is a follow:

B= P_XX + P_YY

Derive Joyce’s Marshallian demand equation for good X. Also compute her demand for good X when B= 500, and the price of good X is 1 and 2. Also draw the Marshallian demand curve for X at these prices.

What is Joyce’s optimal amount of good Y purchased if P_Y= 1 and P_x=1 and if P_x=2 and P_Y= 1?

Derive the Hicksian demand for good X at these prices. Hint, you need to choose the three correct equations you’ve derived above and solve simultaneously. Also, draw both demand curves on the same graph.

Using the information derived in parts A and B, what is the substitution effect and income effect obtained when changing the price of good x from a value of 1 to a value of 2.

I'm trying to write a code that asks for double values and counts how many times 2 consecutive values differ by at most 1. The output on 0 should be the answer.

With inputs 1, 1.7, 0.8, -0.1, -1, 0 : it should return 4 but keeps giving me 0. This is the correct output because only 1 and 1.7 differ by at most 1 as does 1.7 and 0.8, 0.8 and -0.1, and -0.1 and -1. We do not check whether 0 is within 1 of the previous number because 0 is the input that causes us to exit.

Why is this if every time a number differs by at least one my if statement should n++?

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
   double n1, n2 = 0;
   int n = 0;

   cout << "Enter a number." << endl;
   cin >> n1;

   while (n1 != 0) {
       if ((n1 - n2) > -1 && (n1 - n2) < 1) {
           n++;
           n1 = n2;
       }
       else {
           cout << "Enter another number or 0 to end." << endl;
           cin >> n1;
       }
   }
   cout << n << endl;
  
    return 0;
}

(1) Propose a model that can explain why non-tradable goods and services are more expensive in rich countries. State carefully the assumptions of the model.

You are the director of international operations for North and South America for Lenovo.  In 2015 you developed a five-year marketing plan to aggressively market personal computers in Canada, Mexico and Brazil.  A key element of your plan called for meeting the competitive prices of HP and local manufacturers every step of the way.  In addition you planned to spend heavily on marketing.  Your yearly budget for marketing in the major target markets was set as follows:

Canada C$ 2,000,000

Mexico Pesos   5,000,000

Brazil Reals 1,000,000

Your 2015 price set in U.S.$ for your top selling laptop was $2,000 in each market. Market prices have declined 20% on a U.S$ basis over the years.

1.      What do your marketing budgets look like in 2015 and today in US$?

2.      What do the computer prices look like in local currencies in 2015 and today?

3.     What actions would you plan to take in each market to fulfill your goals while  

addressing current conditions? (Hint: look at the marketing expenditures and the prices together).

CURRENCY PROBLEM 2                           

You are the director of U.S. operations for Nissan.  In 2015, you developed plans for a new sports truck model, the Nissan Minimax to be sold at $30,000.  This model can be made in both the U.S. and Japan.  Gross margin (meaning margin after all direct costs) is approximately 50%.

1.         What is the cost of the Minimax to Nissan if it is made in

            Japan vs. made in the U.S. in 2015 and 2020, assuming

            no inflation?

Use the classical model for determining the long-run outcome of the economy to answer the following question. Suppose a government in debt crisis (such as Greece) moves to reduce its budget deficit by reducing the annual funding for tertiary education and healthcare drastically.

(a) Graphically illustrate the impact of such a reduction in the government's budget deficit:

i. First, by assuming that the total factor productivity (TFP) does not depend on the government spending on health and education.

ii. Second, by assuming that the TFP increases with government spending on health and education but by a limited amount. [Be sure to label: the axes; the curves; the initial equilibrium values; the direction curves shift; and the terminal equilibrium values.]

(b) State and explain in words what happens to the real interest rate, national saving, investment, consumption, and output.

(c) Discuss the likely impact of such policy on the inequality of income between the educated and uneducated labour. Support your answer with graphical illustrations.

(d) Suppose the above policy causes a sudden emigration of workers with no education to neighbouring countries for easier access to education and health facilities. Assume TFP does not decrease following the government policy shock, as in part a (i), and following the labour migration. How would your answer to (b) and (c) change?

Security Technology Inc. (STI) is a manufacturer of an electronic control system used in the manufacture of certain special-duty auto transmissions used primarily for police and military applications. The part sells for $48 per unit and had sales of 24,950 units in the current year, 2018. STI has no inventory on hand at the beginning of 2018 and is projecting sales of 28,850 units in 2019.

The fixed manufacturing costs are $215,200 per year, and the fixed selling costs are $690 per year.

Required:

1. Prepare an income statement for each year using full costing.

2. Prepare an income statement for each year using variable costing.

3. Prepare a reconciliation of the difference each year in the operating income resulting from the full and variable costing methods.
