- What is the market equalibrian point?Gulf Coast Electronics is ready to award contracts to suppliers for providing reservoir capacitors for use in its electronic devices. For the past several years, Gulf Coast Electronics has relied on two suppliers for its reservoir capacitors: Able Controls and Lyshenko Industries. A new firm, Boston Components, inquired into the possibility of providing a portion of the reservoir capacitors needed by Gulf Coast. The quality of products provided by Lyshenko Industries has been extremely high; in fact, only 0.5% of the capacitors provided by Lyshenko had to be discarded because of quality problems. Able Controls has also had a high quality level historically, producing an average of only 1% unacceptable capacitors. Because Gulf Coast Electronics has had no experience with Boston Components, it estimated Boston’s defective rate to be 10%. Gulf Coast would like to determine how many reservoir capacitors should be ordered from each firm to obtain 75,000 acceptable-quality capacitors to use…Suppose you wish to test wether the default rate of the bonds that are rated as investment grade by s&p is the same as the default rate on bonds rated as investments grade by fitch. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? What data would you need to test the null hypothesis? Thank you very much for your work, it helps me a lot to understand and validate my assumption.
- A fibre glass company is considering the possibility of introducing a new product.Because of the expense involved in developing the initial moulds and acquiring thenecessary equipment to produce fibreglass, it has decided to conduct a pilot study tomake sure that the market will be adequate. They estimate that the pilot study will cost£12,000. Furthermore, the pilot study can be either successful or unsuccessful. The basicdecisions are to build a large manufacturing facility, a small manufacturing facility, orno facility at all. With a favourable market, the company can expect to make £100,000from the large facility or £60,000 from the smaller facility. If the market is unfavourable,however, they estimate that they would lose £40,000 with a large facility, while theywould lose only £30,000 with the small facility. The company estimates that theprobability of a favourable market given a successful pilot study is 0.7. The probabilityof an unfavourable market given an unsuccessful pilot…An electronics retailer is developing a model for insur-ance policies on new cell phone purchases. It estimates that 60% of customers never make a claim, 25% of cus-tomers require a small repair costing an average of $50, and 15% of customers request a full refund costing $200.What is the long-term average cost the retailer shouldexpect to pay to its customers per claim?Federated South Insurance Company has developed a new screening program for selecting new sales agents. Their past experience indicates that 20% of the new agents hired fail to produce the minimum sales in their first year and are dismissed. Their expectation is that this new screening program will reduce the percentage of failed new agents to 15% or less. If that occurs, they would save $1,000,000 in recruiting and training costs each year. At the end of the first year they want to develop an evaluation to determine if the new program is successful. The following questions are an important part of their research design.A total of 20 new agents were selected.a. If this group performs at the same level as past groups, what is the probability 17 or more successfully meet their minimum sales goals in the first year?b. What is the probability 19 or more reach their minimum sales goals given performance at the same level?c. If the program has actually increased the probability of success to…
- If the expected return on the market is 8% and the risk free rate is 4% and the expected return is 12%, what is the market risk premium ?Discuss two extensions to the original GARCH (p,q) model and explain additional characteristics of financial data they might be able to capture.ABC enters into a contract to help DEF, a ramen restaurantto design a market strategy to compete with DEF. The contract spans twelve month. DEF will pay P80,000 at the beginning of each month. At the end of the contract, ABC either will give DEF a refund of P25,000 or will be entitled to an additional P15,000 bonus, depending on whether sales at DEF at year- end increased to a target level. At the inception of the contract , ABC estimates a 30% chance that it will not earn the bonus and calculates the contract price based on the expected value of future payments to be received. At the start of the fifth month, circumstances change and ABC revise the probability that it will earn the bonus to 80% What is the adjustment to the service revenue ?

In this plan, there is a new policy that states that if a high school has less than 100 students, then the school will be shut down. Calamanco high school has a population of 1417 students, but is losing students at an averge rate of 109 students per year. This school used to house more than 5000 students but the district has been struggling in recent years and losing people to more affluent nearby districts and cities. Some communities are concerned about this decreasing rate because there will be a time when the district may shut school down. Let x represent the number of full years that the school is operational. Part A: If this trend continues, write a function that gives student population at Calamanco high school after x years before the school is shut down by the district. Part B: What constraints does this situation put on the…Suppose that 2% of the employed lose their job each month. Further suppose that 25% of the unemployed find a job each month. a.

If you wanted to reduce the steady-state level of unemployment, what type of policies might you pursue and why?
