A researcher studying the effect of price cuts on consumers' expectations makes up two different histories of the store price of a hypothetical brand of laundry detergent for the past year. Eight students in a business class view one or the other price history on a computer. Some students see a steady price, whereas others see regular sales that temporarily cut the price. Students are asked the price they would expect to pay. The names of the eight subjects follow. 1. Franklin 2. James 3. Wright 4. Edwards 5. Rust 6. Walsh 7. Gofberg 8. Williams Use the following list of random digits: 41842 81868 71035 09001 Starting at the beginning of this list and using single-digit labels, assign the first four subjects selected to the steady price group and the remaining four to the fluctuating price group. The subjects assigned to the fluctuating price group are: a. Franklin, James, Wright, and Edwards. b. Wright, Rust, Walsh, and Gofberg. c. Rust, Walsh, Gofberg, and Williams. d. Edwards, Franklin, Williams, and James.

Traders from the faraway nation of Chplandia have brought infected goods to market in the capital of Pcoria. As a result, a new infectious disease called chpitis is spreading through the Pcorian population. Chpitis is not fatal, but leaves victims severely disfigured for the remainder of their lives. Throughout this problem, assume no discounting of future years.a. The Pcorian government surveys victims to determine how burdensome chpitis is. Respondents claim they are indifferent between living six years without chpitis and living ten years covered with chpitis scars. Most respondents explain that they face a major social stigma in Pcoria’s schools and workplaces.What is the implied quality weight q for a year lived in the aftermath of a chpitis infection?b. Now assume that a drug company has developed an ointment that can be used to treat chpitis sores and reduce scarring. Surveys indicate that the ointment, which costs $10,000 for a full course of treatment, can improve quality of…

Dave Fletcher, the general manager of North Carolina Engineering Corporation (NCEC), thinks that his firm’s engineer-ing services contracted to highway construction firms are directly related to the volume of highway construction business contractedwith companies in his geographic area. He wonders if this is reallyso, and if it is, can this information help him plan his operationsbetter by forecasting the quantity of his engineering servicesrequired by construction firms in each quarter of the year? Thefollowing table presents the sales of his services and total amountsof contracts for highway construction over the past eight quarters: a) Using this data, develop a regression equation for predictingthe level of demand of NCEC’s services. b) Determine the coefficient of correlation and the standard errorof the estimate.
Oxford University in England is one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world. In 1902, a trust was set up to provide academic awards to American college graduates so they could attend Oxford. The Rhodes Scholarship was named after the primary benefactor of the award, Cecil Rhodes, a British philanthropist who wished to bring students from throughout the world to study at Oxford. Along with an endowment from Rhodes's will, the scholarship continues to be funded by generous benefactors including Canadian businessman John MacBain, who donated almost $120 million dollars to expand the program. The first class of American Rhodes Scholars entered Oxford in 1904. Applying for the Rhodes Scholarship is a rigorous process. Students who wish to apply must first be endorsed by their university.
