At Burnt Mesa Pueblo, archaeological studies have used the method of tree-ring dating in an effort to determine when prehistoric people lived in the pueblo. Wood from several excavations gave a mean of (year) 1257 with a standard deviation of 38 years. The distribution of dates was more or less mound-shaped and symmetric about the mean. Use the empirical rule to estimate the following.
(a) a range of years centered about the mean in which about 68%
of the data (tree-ring dates) will be found
between and A.D.
(b) a range of years centered about the mean in which about 95% of
the data (tree-ring dates) will be found
between and A.D.
(c) a range of years centered about the mean in which almost all
the data (tree-ring dates) will be found
between and A.D.

Problem 1- Schedule of Cash Receipts
Watt’s Lighting Stores made the following sales projection for the next six months. All sales are credit sales.
March……. $35,000 June……. $34,000
April…… $42,000 July……. $42000
May……. $25,000 August…. $48,000
Sales in January and February were $32,000 and $36,000, respectively. Experience has shown that of total sales, 10 percent are uncollectible, 30 percent are collected in the month of sale, 40 percent are collected in the following month, and 20 percent are collected two months after sale.
Prepare a monthly cash receipts schedule for the firm for March through August. Of the sales expected to be made during the six months from March through August, how much will still be uncollected at the end of August? How much of this is to be collected later?

(Related to Checkpoint 13.2 and Checkpoint 13.3) (Comprehensive risk analysis) Blinkeria is considering introducing a new line of hand scanners that can be used to copy material and then download it into a personal computer. These scanners are expected to sell for an average price of $105 each, and the company analysts performing the analysis expect that the firm can sell 101,000 units per year at this price for a period of five years, after which time they expect demand for the product to end as a result of new technology. In addition, variable costs are expected to be $19 per unit and fixed costs, not including depreciation, are forecast to be $1,060,000 per year. To manufacture this product, Blinkeria will need to buy a computerized production machine for $9.3 million that has no residual or salvage value, and will have an expected life of five years. In addition, the firm expects it will have to invest an additional $306000 in working capital to support the new business. Other pertinent information concerning the business venture is provided here:
