Chandler Enterprises needs someone to supply it with 142,000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next five years. It will cost $1,820,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production; you’ll depreciate this cost straight-line to zero over the project’s life. You estimate that in five years this equipment can be salvaged for $152,000. Your fixed production costs will be $267,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $9.60 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capital of $132,000. The tax rate is 22 percent and you require a return of 12 percent on your investment. Assume that the price per carton is $16.20.
a. Calculate the project NPV.
b. What is the minimum number of cartons per year that can be supplied and still guarantee a zero NPV? Verify that the quantity you calculated is enough to at least have a zero NPV.
c. What is the highest fixed costs that could be incurred and still guarantee a zero NPV? Verify that the fixed costs you calculated are enough to at least have a zero NPV.

Why are we studying women's issues in African
cultures?
How does the current debate on race relations/Black
Lives Matter movement (after the killing of George Floyd) connect
to race issues in Africa?
The answer is just one paragraph each, that's it. e.x
To my knowledge, Chimamanda Adiche said it best: "the
problem with stereotypes is not that they are [always] untrue, but
that they're incomplete." This and systemic oppression - double
whammy for African women as Black and female-identifying - portray
African women unfairly, homogenously, and altogether incorrectly,
leading to false assumptions and generalizations of what it means
to be an "African woman." It's important to study the history,
culture, portrayal, empowerment, and multiplicity of African women
so they are plurally represented in the media, our hearts, and our
minds, just like white western culture, which is quite honestly
only a fraction as rich, diverse, and enriching as POC diasporic
cultures, including the African diaspora.
The common thread tying the BLM movement and the
varied experiences of African women across the diaspora is
resisting anti-Blackness. Anti-Blackness targets and marginalizes
Back people particularly in the U.S. but also around the world in
different ways across contexts but fundamentally results in
discrimination against Black people that leaves them disadvantaged
compared to white and even some non-Black POC in terms
opportunities, health, security, finances, socialization, and
pretty much every shared systemic aspect of life. I am hoping this
course will inform the specific ways in which not only such
movements but also people are connected, diverse, and perhaps most
importantly united in generating long-term change to sustain
equity.

A soccer player takes a corner kick, lofting a stationary ball 36.0° above the horizon at 16.0 m/s. If the soccer ball has a mass of 0.425 kg and the player's foot is in contact with it for 4.80 ✕ 10−2 s, find the x- and y-components of the soccer ball's change in momentum and the magnitude of the average force exerted by the player's foot on the ball.

Δpx

For each of the following case studies, play the role of a clinician and make the most accurate diagnosis possible from the given information.
7. Sarah has an unrealistic fear of shopping in crowded stores and walking through crowded streets. She has begun to spend more and more time home alone in order to avoid the panicky feeling she gets when she goes out in public.
8. Emmit, who has just suffered a serious knee injury, cannot undergo an MRI because he has an irrational fear of narrow, enclosed places that he developed after he got stuck in a well when he was a kid.
9. Lately, Jon has been getting into physical fights and recently got arrested for trying to steal a car. When his mom went to bail him out of jail, she told police officers that she doesn’t know what to do with her son, as he lacks remorse for his behavior. She also revealed that this has been going on for a long time – when he was a kid, he would even throw rocks at the stray cats in the neighborhood.
10. Sam's friends are starting to worry about him. Normally energetic and fun-loving, Sam has become withdrawn and sullen. He has lost weight, is constantly tired, and hasn't been showing up to lacrosse practice or to his fraternity meetings. In his conversations with others, he expresses feelings of doubt and unworthiness, and seems to be showing some risk factors for suicide.
11. What are some risk factors for suicide? Name at least three. What would you do if Sam (the case above) was your friend and you were worried he might be thinking about suicide? Answer not as a clinician, but as a caring friend for this question.

Use SPSS for this Application Exercise:
A staff psychologist at a police precinct believes that the new
week-long training courses worsens on the job sensitivity of police
officers. The psychologist designs a study where some policemen
randomly get and complete the course. A month later the
psychologist records the number of domestic disputes the police
officers successfully resolved from their police reports. What can
the psychologist conclude with α = 0.05. The success data
are below.
no course |

---|---|
11.2 12.5 10.6 12.7 8.3 15.6 12.1 |

c) Compute the appropriate test statistic(s) to
make a decision about H0.
(Hint: Make sure to write down the null and alternative hypotheses
to help solve the problem.)
p-value = ; Decision: ---Select---

d) Using the SPSS results,
compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate
magnitude(s).
If not appropriate, input and/or select "na" below.

e) Make an interpretation based on the
results.
Participants that received training had significantly less resolved domestic disputes than those that did not receive training.
Participants that received training had significantly more resolved domestic disputes than those that did not receive training.
Participants that received training did not differ significantly on resolved domestic disputes than those that did not receive training.
