In August 2011, Bank of Hawaii (BOH) stock cost $45 per share, yielded 4% per year in dividends, and had a risk index of 3.0 per share, while JPMorgan Chase (JPM) stock cost $40 per share, yielded 2.5% per year in dividends, and had a risk index of 2.0 per share.† You have up to $25,000 to invest in these stocks, and would like to earn at least $760 in dividends over the course of a year. (Assume the dividends to be unchanged for the year.) How many shares (to the nearest tenth of a unit) of each stock should you purchase to meet your requirements and minimize the total risk index for your portfolio?
In May 2008, CNN reported that Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) are plunging toward the "endangered list". Due to soaring oil prices and environmental concerns, consumers are replacing gas-guzzling vehicles with fuel-efficientsmaller cars. As a result, there has been a big drop in the demand for new as well as used SUVs. A sales manager of a used car dealership for SUVs believes that it takes more than 90 days, on average, to sell an sUV. In order to test his claim, he samples 40 recently sold SUVs and find that it took an average of 95 days to sell an SUV. He believes that the population standard deviation is fairly stable at 20 days. Determine if the sales manager's claim is justifiable at 0.05
An fruit grower knows from previous experience and careful data analysis that if the fruit on a specific kind of tree is harvested at this time of year, each tree will yield, on average, 130 pounds, and will sell for $0.6 per pound. However, for each additional week the harvest is delayed (up to a point), the yield per tree will increase by 7 pounds, while the price per pound will decrease by $0.02.A) How many weeks should the grower wait before harvesting the apples in order to maximize the sales revenue per tree? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a week.)Answer: (rounded to the nearest tenth)B) Use your answer in part A to find the actual maximum revenue that can be expected. (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.)Answer: dollars (rounded to the nearest dollar)

Ten years ago, the town of Easton decided to increase its annual spending on education so that its high school graduates would be able to earn higher wages. Now Easton has asked you to evaluate the effectiveness of the spending increase. Their data show that before the spending increase, the average annual salary of recent high school graduates was $25,000 and that now that average salary has risen to $28,500. Fortunately for your analysis, a neighboring community (Allentown) did not change its annual spending on education. Ten years ago, recent Allentown high school graduates earned an average of $22,500, and now that average is $23,750. (b) What underlying assumption do you have to make in order for your estimate to be valid? What might cause your underlying assumption to be invalid?
