Complete the corresponding assembly language fragments by selecting the correct instruction, register, or value: (Choices in bold)
a) Consider the following fragment of C code:
if(a == b) {
x += 10;
A[50] = A[50] +x;
}
else {
y += 10;
A[50] = A[50] + y;
}
Assume that variables a, b, x and y are assigned to $s0, $s1, $s2 and $s3 respectively and the base address for array A is in $s4. Only register $t0 is used for storing results temporarily.
bne $s0, ($s0 / $s1 / $s2 / $s3 / $s4 / $t0), else
addi $s2, $s2, 10

Exit:
b) Consider the following fragment of C code:
while (A[i] == 0) {
A[i] = A[i] + 10;
i += 1;
}
Assume that variable i is assigned to $s0 and the base address for array A is in $s1. A is an array of words. Registers $t0 and $t1 are used for storing results temporarily.
Loop: sll $t0, $s0, (0 / 1 / 2 / 4 / 10)

A titrimetric method for the determination of calcium in
limestone was tested by analysis of a NIST
containing 30.15% CaO. The mean result of four analyses was 30.26%
CaO, with standard deviation of 0.085%.
By pooling data from several analyses, it was found that s =
0.094% CaO.
a) Do the data indicate the presence of a systematic error at the
95% confidence level?
b) Would the data indicate the presence of a systematic error at
95% confidence level if no pooled value for s
had been available?
Show calculations for part a and b.

If the order is accepted, variable marketing costs on the special order would be reduced by 25 percent because all of the robes would be packed and shipped in one lot. However, if the offer is accepted, management estimates that it will lose the sale of 2,000 robes at regular prices. What is the net gain or loss from the special order? |

Pranks, Inc. is a manufacturer of joke and novelty products for perpetrators of practical jokes. The corporation has paid several cash dividends throughout Year 6, the current year.

| Number of common shares issued | 750,000 |
| Par value of common shares | $20 |
| Par value of cumulative preferred shares | $30 |

1.The accounting manager for the company prepared the schedule of cash dividends paid from Year 1 to Year 6 on the Pranks, Inc. panel. However, one of the reasons for Pranks, Inc.’s missing information is that the manager is away on vacation and is unreachable by phone, because he is backpacking on a remote island that does not have cell phone reception. Management would like you to determine some information from the data you’ve collected regarding its outstanding stock.
Fill in the following answers.
| How many shares of common stock are outstanding? | |
| How many shares of preferred stock are outstanding? | |
| What is the preferred dividend as a percent of par? |
2.The company declared a 4% common stock dividend on December 1, and would like you to compute the following pieces of missing information. The market value of the common shares is $25.00 on December 1, and is $32.00 on the actual distribution date of the stock, December 31.
Fill in the missing information in the following table, using the information given and your work on the other panels. All “before” items are before the stock dividend was declared. All “after” items are after the stock dividend was declared and closing entries were recorded at the end of the year.
| Total paid-in capital before the stock dividend | |
| Total retained earnings before the stock dividend | |
| Total stockholders’ equity before the stock dividend | |
| Total paid-in capital after the stock dividend | |
| Total retained earnings after the stock dividend | |
