A social psychologist is designing a study to see whether people who see a particular film will be more likely to see violence as a solution to a problem. The psychologist plans to use a scale that assesses this construct, the Problem-Violence Scale, which has a population mean of 85, a standard deviation of 10, and is normally distributed. The psychologist takes a sample of 20 people, randomly and shows them the film prior to having them solve problems. On the Problem-Violence Scale mentioned, this sample scores a mean of 88. The research question is, does the film cause an increase in the use of violence to solve a problem? Use a one-tailed test with a significance level of .05 to conduct the steps of hypothesis testing. What is the Research & Null hypothesis? Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution to compare to sample distribution:

Shanken Corp. issued a 25-year, 4.7 percent semiannual bond 2 years ago. The bond currently sells for 94 percent of its face value. The book value of the debt issue is $60 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue on the market, a zero coupon bond with 12 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $45 million and the bonds sell for 50 percent of par. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent. |

Case Study:
Numerous information systems are available within SAP ERP to support most of the processes that we will discuss in this book. Information systems (IS) can be divided into three broad categories: logistics information systems (LIS), financial information systems (FIS), and human resources information systems (HRIS). Logistics information systems support all of the logistics processes. Recall that logistical processes are concerned with acquiring, storing, creating, and distributing materials. The components of LIS include purchasing IS, sales IS, inventory control IS (IWM processes), quality management IS, plant maintenance IS, and shop floor IS (production processes). The financial information system supports reporting related to the general ledger (e.g., balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows), accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The HRIS is used to retrieve information about different HR components such as personnel, positions, and jobs.
Recall that information systems are part of the OLAP component of SAP ERP, and they utilize information structures to provide analytic capabilities. There are two types of information structures—standard and user-defined. Standard information structures are predefined in the SAP ERP system, and they collect the data needed to generate the most commonly used reports. SAP ERP also enables users to define their own structures, known as user defined information structures, to meet specific reporting requirements.
Finally, information structures enable users to conduct two types of analysis— standard and flexible. Standard analysis provides predefined analytics for data in standard information structures. This type of analysis is sufficient for most analytic requirements. When standard analysis is insufficient, users can conduct flexible analysis to customize the reporting. In contrast to standard analysis, flexible analysis allows users to define the content and format of the analysis. Specifically, it enables users to combine available characteristics and key figures as needed and to create new key figures using user-specified formulas. It also provides users with several layout options.
To summarize, the OLTP component of SAP ERP offers reporting in the form of work lists and online lists that are based on detailed transaction data.
In contrast, the OLAP component offers reporting via information systems, based on aggregated data in information structures. These capabilities are limited to data within the SAP ERP system. Today, however, companies need even more powerful reporting capabilities that combine data from multiple sources. This is the domain of business intelligence.
Q1. As an information systems project manager, on what bases would you select the modules and the functionalities of the enterprise systems to fit with your business needs and requirements?
Q2. Analyze the capabilities and the type of reporting you are seeking for your project and illustrate the right approach in selecting the suitable IS vendor for the project.

Create a new Java project, name it “Quiz02”. (This is a JAVA Programming question, thumbs up quick and correct answer)
1) Create a java class Traveler that has four data members, String name, Date bDate, int id and int noOfDependens.
Generate the following:
1- Getters and Setters.
2- Four parametrize constructor to initialize the four data members above.
3- toString() method.
Create a java class Flight that has four data members, String number, String destination, int capacity, and ArrayList travelers.
Note1 - travelers will be used to track the No. of travelers so far on the selected flight.
Note2 - No. of travelers = No. of dependents + 1;
Generate the following: 1- Getters and Setters.
2- Three parametrize constructor to initialize the number, destination and capacity.
3- toString() method.
4- Method public void addTraveler(Traveler traveler) that will do the following:
a. It will calculate the total No. of travelers so far.
b. It will calculate the total availability = capacity - No. of travelers.
c. If the availability is equal to OR more than the requested tickets (traveler + his noOfDependens) then, accept this reservation and add the traveler to the flight ArrayList, otherwise, reject the reservation by printing the following message “This reservation is NOT accepted. Total No. of requested tickets are: X while the availability is: Y”
d. Sample for your output in case the reservation is accepted is listed below.
Create a java class AppSystem for testing, and include the main method. Then create the following:
Traveler("Traveler1", (17, 5, 1950), 1950517 , 7); Traveler("Traveler2", (2, 12, 1975), 1975122 , 5); Traveler("Traveler3", (13, 3, 1981), 1981313 , 3); Traveler("Traveler4", (9, 10, 1979), 1979109 , 4); Traveler("Traveler5", (25, 5, 1963), 1963525 , 6); Flight("QAR246", "Kuwait", 70); Flight("Kuw579", "Doha", 60);
5- Add to the Flight QAR246 the first Traveler1 Sample for addTraveler() method after accepting the traveler Traveler1.
Flight capacity: 70
No. of current travelers: 0
Flight availability: 70
=======================================
Accepted reservation. Total No. of reserved tickets are: 8
6- Print the flight QAR246 details by calling the method toString(), sample for your method output listed below:
***** Flight details *****
==========================
Flight No.: QAR246
Flight destination: Kuwait
Flight Capacity: 70
List of travelers:
Traveler name: Traveler1
Birth Date: 17/ 5/1950
ID: 1950517
No. of Dependents: 7
