5.31       Calculating Interest Expense

You receive a credit card application from Shady Banks Savings and Loan offering an introductory rate of .9 percent per year, compounded monthly for the first six months, increasing thereafter to 18.5 percent compounded monthly. Assuming you transfer the $10,000 balance from your existing credit card and make no subsequent payments, how much interest will you owe at the end of the first year?

Project Assignment

ABC paid a dividend of $3.00 this past year. The dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 20% for the next three years, and at a constant 3% rate thereafter. The required rate of return for investors in this stock is 10%. Calculate the value of this stock today.

What would be appropriate fiscal ( expansionary or contractionary ) policy for our economy right now? and why?

1. What does relational closure mean, and what is its significance in application design?
2. What techniques can be used to minimize deadlocks, and how?
3. Compare and contrast performance problems with availability problems.
4. Describe three types of technology that can help alleviate availability issues in a database

Evaluate the following pure-yield pickup swap: You currently hold a 15-year, AA-rated, 8.5% coupon bond priced to yield 11.0%. As a swap candidate, you are considering a 15-year, AA-rated, 10.5% coupon bond priced to yield 12.0%. (Assume reinvestment at 11.0%, $1,000 par value, semiannual coupons.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your monetary answers to the nearest cent and percentage answers and value of swap to two decimal places. You may use Appendix C to answer the questions.

Value of swap:   basis points in one year

Please provide a PESTEL analysis on Bayer the pharmaceutical company.

True or False Questions: Determine if true or false. If false why?

1) Premature efforts to treat problem behavior before determining its function can be inefficient, ineffective, and even harmful.

2) Research has found that functional analyses conducted in natural environments (e.g., classroom settings) often yield the same (or even clearer) results compared to those conducted in simulated settings.

3) Problem behavior can only be maintained by one function. Behaviors are not multi-functional.

4) Indirect functional assessment procedures are referred to as “indirect” because they do not involve direct observation of the behavior.

5) According to Skinner’s definition of ‘verbal behavior,’ body language is not verbal behavior.

6) This is a correct analysis of verbal behavior: It is raining outside (antecedent), child asks mom if she can wear her rainboots (verbal behavior), mom says “yes” (access to tangible).

7) For reading to be called textual behavior, the reader must understand what he is reading.

8) Token economies should only be used for early learners because it is not age-appropriate for older clients to earn tokens.

9) Self-management skills should only be taught to adolescent or older clients; young children do not yet comprehend methods of self-management.

10) Scenario: After Eva learns to read 10 C-V-C (consonant-vowel-consonant) words such as CAT, RUG, BAR, she can read different C-V-C words for which she had not received any instruction. This exemplifies generalization.

11) Generalized behavior change is always desirable.

12) It is okay to teach skills that will not meet naturally existing contingencies of reinforcement if the skill is identified as a deficit.

13) Learners only need to be taught when to engage in a skill, not when not to engage in a skill; It is not useful to provide “don’t do it” instruction.

14) Generalization probes should be conducted before, during, and after instruction.

write a java code.

Consider a four digit number such as 6587. Split it at two digits, as 65 and 87. Sum of 65 and 87 is 152. Sum of the digits of 152 is 8.

a. Draw the precedence diagram.

b. Determine the earliest and latest activity times, the expected completion time and standard     

    deviation.

c. What is the probability that the project will be completed in 40 weeks or less?

d. The following table provides the crash data for the project network. The normal activity times are

     considered to be deterministic and not probabilistic.

Crash the network the maximum amount, indicate how much it would cost the bank, and identify the new critical path(s).

Research a computer operation that could be improved through parallelization on a multi-core CPU. Include the following:

• A short description of the operation (e.g., “Bitcoin mining”) in the subject of your post
• A longer description of the computer operation
• A description of how it could be improved through parallelization
• Unique challenges in a parallelized version that are not present in a single-process version

What is a metric in a routing protocol? What is a metric used for? List and describe two major metrics used in routing protocols.

USING loops, Arrays, filewriter/reader/exceptions, I dont think we are allowed to use arraylists/algorithm constraints

THE TWO FILES ARE LISTED AFTER THE QUESTION(CDDriver.java and TextMenu.java)
Lab 14
Array of Objects and File IO
The following exercises are to be completed during lab class. If you do not have time to finish during lab, they must be completed before the beginning of the following lab session.
Set-Up

 Import the following file (See below)
o CDDriver.java
o TextMenu.java
Import the input file, Collection.txt, into the root of your project.
Problem
You will be writing a program to manage a list for a CD collection. Existing CDs are stored in a file. The data in the file (title and artist) is read into an array. The user will be presented with a menu with the following choices: add a new CD, display the list, or quit. You will create one new class and modify an existing class.
Class diagram and main algorithm
Song
- title:String
- artist:String
+ Song(String title, String artist)
+ toString( ):String
all getters and setters
main algorithm
CREATE array of Song objects
CREATE TextMenu object
READ music collection into array
choice = get menu choice using TextMenu object
2
WHILE (choice != 3)
CASE choice
WHEN 1:
READ data for new song from keyboard
ADD the new song object to the array
INCREMENT count
WRITE the new song data to the file
WHEN 2:
PRINT the array
OTHERWISE:
PRINT "Invalid menu choice. Please try again"
END CASE
PRINT menu
choice = get menu choice using TextMenu object
END WHILE
CLOSE output file
END MAIN
Processing Instructions (write the code in this order) – use the comments in the program to help with placement.
1. Create the new class called Song.java using the given class diagram.
 There is no default constructor, only the one sending in both title and artist.
 toString - define it so that it prints in the form: title by artist
2. Write the code for menu choice 2 to print the array to the screen. Doing this at the beginning allows you to test that the array has the correct values whenever a change has been made to it.
You have been given the declarations for:
 MAX_ARRAY_SIZE
 FILENAME
 count (used to keep track of the number of elements currently in the array)
 choice (used to capture the menu choice made by the user)
3. Review the TextMenu class, and write code to create a TextMenu object with appropriate menu choices. Call the appropriate method to display the menu and get the user’s choice before the loop and at the bottom of the loop.
3
 Run your program to test getting the menu choice to be sure this is working correctly.
4. Open the file, read the input data from the file, create a Song object for each set of data, store the song object in the array. When done, close the file. Remember to use a try/catch when attempting to open the file. You will also be keeping track of how many Song objects are put into the array.
 Test this using menu choice 2 to see if everything loaded correctly.
5. Write the code for the following:
 write the output to SongData.txt. Use a try/catch for any exceptions.
6. Write the code for menu choice 1.
 Prompt the user, read the data from the keyboard and create a new Song object.
 Add the song to the array
o Don't forget to add to the count so you know how many items are in the array
 Add the song to the file
7. Close the output file.
8. Run the code. Add a song, then use menu choice 2 to see if it was added correctly.
