A British company BB Corp. enters into a 1-year interest rate swap with Sea Bank. The notional principle of the swap is £60 million. Payments will be made quarterly on the basis of 90/360 (90 days in the settlement period and 360 days per year). BB will receive a fixed rate of 3.5% and pay floating rate Euribor plus 1%. The 90-day Euribor rates are as below:

Current: 2.4%             In 1 quarter: 3%          In 2 quarters: 3.5%      In 3 quarters: 3.7%

A. Determine the initial exchange of cash that occurs at the start of the swap.  

B. Determine the quarterly payments (Q1, Q2)

C. Determine the final exchange of cash that occurs at the end of the swap.

A 0.190-kg cube of ice (frozen water) is floating in glycerine. The gylcerine is in a tall cylinder that has inside radius 3.60 cm . The level of the glycerine is well below the top of the cylinder. If the ice completely melts, by what distance does the height of liquid in the cylinder change?

1) Different hybridizations give rise to different vibrational frequencies. Terminal
alkynes have C-H stretching frequencies of about 3300 cm-1; alkene C-H stretching
frequencies are around 3100 cm-1, and alkane C-H stretching frequencies are
around 2900 cm-1. Explain these observations

Amazon - Chapter 8

While Amazon as a firm continues to diversify its products, services, and markets under one corporate umbrella, why do firms such as Barnes & Noble choose to split into separate firms for greater focus on each piece of the business? Do these different strategies align with the core competencies of each? It may be helpful to review Exhibit 8.9.

One of the most critical and hotly debated industries in the United States is healthcare. For this paper, you will examine the state of health care in the United States. As a starting point, you should read chapter 24 of the text and then after conducting your own research (3 additional sources minimum) write a 2-3 page paper that examines the following aspects of health care in the United States:

1. How much is spent on health care in the United States annually?

2. What is the basic structure of our system and how does it compare to other industrialized nations in terms of outcomes (be certain to identify what parameters you are using as a metric) and costs?

3. What are some unique challenges that health care presents from a consumer standpoint?

4. What have been some interventions by the government to make healthcare more accessible and affordable to the public and what have been the outcomes?

5. Do you think that the Singapore model could be replicated here? Why or why not?

A beam of unpolarized light with intensity 170 W/m^2 is incident on a pair of ideal crossed (perpendicular) polarizers. You insert a third ideal polarizer between the two polarizers with its polarizing axis at 45∘ to the others. Determine the intensity of the emerging light after you insert the third polarizer. Express your answer with the appropriate units.

On February 23, 1987 astronomers noticed that a relatively faint star in the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud suddenly became so bright that it could be seen with the naked eye. Astronomers suspected that the star exploded as a supernova. Late-stage stars eject material that forms a ring before they explode as supernovas. The ring is at first invisible. However, following the explosion the light from the supernova reaches the ring. Astronomers observed the ring exactly one year after the phenomenon itself occurred (Figure 1). The angular size of the ring is 0.81 arcseconds.

Use geometry and the speed of light to estimate the distance to the supernova.

The claims department of Corrupt Insurance operates Monday through Friday, except on holidays. The effective workday averages 6.5 hours, considering employee breaks. The department processes 10 different types of claims before they are accepted or denied. The estimated processing time per claim type, as well as their observed percentage, are shown in the table below. Based on reliable forecasts, the manager of this facility is expecting the throughput shown here for the second half of 2018. Estimate the number of FTEs (full-time equivalent) required every month and propose options to adjust the labor force accordingly.

A Singapore Airlines case study

Introduction

When you run a large organization, you are likely to have a large number of employees. The Singapore Airlines Group has more than 29,000 employees. This large workforce comprises a diverse mix of people who bring a range of skills, attributes and personalities to the workplace. They are employed in the Group’s home base in Singapore and in as many as 80 diverse locations, all around the world.

Organizational systems

In the most efficient organizations, all employees should know and understand their role and how it fits into the work of the organization as a whole. They will also want to do the best that they can, not only in the interests of the organization that employs them, but also in their own interest. With such a large and diverse group of employees operating in widely differing working environments, giving each of them a sense of belonging to a community with a common goal is a huge organizational undertaking.

Modern organizations like the Singapore Airlines Group need a structure that enables people to work and deal with one another in a coordinated and co-operative way as they work towards the goals of the business. An organization’s hierarchy helps to distinguish between the levels of post as well as the layers of authority and responsibility attached to each post.

Dividing up an organization

A very small business does not really need a formal structure and is unlikely to have one. As it grows, however, some sort of formal structure will be required. As it grows even larger, its ability to construct a proper organizational structure may well determine its fate. Differentiation is the process by which certain activities or parts of an organization are grouped and then assigned to managers and other staff. How this is done depends upon a range of issues related to each organization. Ideally, the chosen structure will:

• include every part of the organization
• relate each part to every other part
• show where the authority and responsibility of different individuals and their departments lie
• enable everyone within the organization to assess their roles and status.

There are five main methods of grouping different parts of an organization.
These are by: Function - Dividing the organization into broad sectors that reflect the specialism or function of each sector. Product - Basing the structure around products, with a different division for each type of product. Process - Creating a structure that mirrors the particular steps or phases of the production process. Geographical area - Relating parts of an organization to the activities they provide for each geographical region. Matrix - Setting up a mix of the above methods.

Running a service business

Airlines operate in a competitive environment. A key area of competition for them is the quality of customer service. Customer service helps to distinguish one airline from another, and to give one an advantage over the other. In order to provide the type of service that customers want; airlines need to be flexible. They must allow employees scope to make decisions that consider changing circumstances in a variety of environments. It is mainly for this reason that Singapore Airlines gives considerable autonomy to each part of the organization.

I have a C problem. I need to read the data of a txt file to array by struct, then use these data to sum or sort.

The txt file and the struct like

aa.txt

1 2

3 4

*****************************

struct aaa{
int num1,num2;
}bbb[2];

num1 for 1,3, num2 for 2 4

I made a void readfile () function for read data. How can I pass the numbers to another function ( void sum () and void sort() ) for sum and sort

I finished the void readfile(), but I have no idea how to pass the value to another function.

I tries to use the pointer of struct, can you give me a general idea?

Because I must move data to an array, is my array of struct wrong? I mean if I need to use malloc

Thanks
