the Credit Balance (X) we saw that there is a strong positive slope, meaning that customers who carry a larger credit balance usually will also have higher income as shown in the best-fit line. For linear regression equation we have the following; Income ($1000) = -3.51589 + 0.0119264 Credit Balance($). From this, we can see the B0= -3.51589, which is also the Y intercept, while B1 is 0.0119264 is the slope for this variable. The coefficient of correlation and the coefficient of determination both showed a positive strong relationship between the two variable of Credit Balance (X) and Income (Y). The R^2=86.52%, while R=0.80.
There is only a 1.28% chance that b = 0, which is better than the 10 percent level required by the marketing director. d. The exact level of significance of is 0.0927. There is a 9.27% chance that rivals’ spending on advertising does not affect Vanguard’s sales (i.e., b = 0), which is just barely better than the 10 percent level required by the marketing director. e. About 78 percent of the variation in sales remains unexplained. Find additional explanatory variables that have a significant affect on S. The manager might try adding the price of its detergent and the
Net oncome does not tell the full story, nor does it truly represent the overall stability. In reviewing The Home Depot’s balance sheet the first item to present itself is the company´s reduction in present and long-term liabilities. The second thing is the almost six fold increase in the current installments of long-term debt. The company has eliminated nearly $1.7 billion in short-term debt, as well as successfully reducing the amount of payable income by nearly a billion dollars. This action will help the company down the road as fewer liabilities will result in less cash outflow, and place the company in a position to manage through the construction downturn.
Companies HD and LD have the same tax rate, sales, total assets, and basic earning power. Both companies have positive net incomes. Company HD has a higher debt ratio and, therefore, a higher interest expense. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Answer: e. Company HD has a lower times interest earned (TIE) ratio.
Carmen believed that the more salt, the lower the temperature is. It is incorrect. The lower amount of salt, the less time it took to freeze. 3. I would suggest to Carmen that she maybe would give herself more time to let the water freeze because when she added 5 grams of salt, it did not freeze in enough time of the experiment.
Option two is the choice because the $2,716 savings difference in total interest from option two outweighs the $1,043 in interest savings from option one. Here the simulator reveals that loan option one is the correct choice. Loan option one is the best choice to solve the working capital shortfall because even though it has a higher interest rate, there is no prepayment limitation and has a total interest payment of only $32,603 after three months. The Financial Dictionary explains that “prepayment is good for the borrower because it relieves him/her of the debt, but it deprives the lender of interest he/she would have received otherwise” (Financial Dictionary, p. 1,
q1= (100-(10-3))/3=31 q2= 30 Q=31+30=61 Market Price=100-30-31=39 Firm’s one profit= 31*39-31*7=992 Firm’s two profit=30*39-30*10=870 c. Compare consumer surplus from parts a and b. Do consumers fare better with or without the subsidy? (Remember that consumer surplus is calculated from market quantity and market price.) The consumer surplus is bigger with subsidiary because they get more quantity with lower price while without subsidiary consumer’s surplus become smaller as they get less quantity with higher price. Chapter 11 6.
Looking at the differences between the first regression analysis and this one, I have concluded that our Adjusted R² value increase but not much if anything, even deleting the least significant variable, our correlation relationship is only 64% and weak. The p-value is still low, less than our alpha of .10, and the F-model is still a large number (256.62). The coefficients stayed the same, however, out p-values changed. The p-value for our Intercept changed from 6.25E-09 to 2.03E-09, the p-value for DAYS changed from 3.66E-64 to 3.02E-65, and our p-value for PHYS changed from .4065 to .4044. Even though the p-value for our Intercept and DAYS increased, it didn’t affect the significance of our model.
Ensure you state where a particular assumption is used in your proof. (600 points) [pic] Given the two IC Curves, Point A on IC1 is northeast of IC2’s Point B implying that IC1 is has a higher utility than IC2. On IC2, Point D is northeast to IC1’s Point C implying that IC2 is the IC curve with the higher utility, which creates a logical inconsistency. This would break the assumption rule that every consumption basket lies on one and only one indifference curve. It would also break the transitivity assumption.
Lower risks and higher chances for maximized earnings proved to be a major concern in this decision (University of Phoenix, 2004). Castor Standard has lower deductibles that fall into the suitable range for what ConstructIt’s employees can afford (University of Phoenix, 2004). Castor Standard carries a lower risk factor when provided to a company with ConstructIt’s statistics and demographics. Castor Standard does not cover pre-existing conditions and is suitable for ConstrucIt but this does not provide much revenue for CCHP (University of Phoenix, 2004). The total cost of premiums charged to ConstructIt are $3,428, the earnings from this are $3.43 million (University of Phoenix, 2004).
