Janus SeagulI had a car accident and was out of work for a year. Janus believes that the accident was caused by a vehicle defect. He consulted some lawyers and planned to sue the vehicle manufacturer. During negotiations, the legal team of the vehicle manufacturer offered a $700K settlement. However, Janus needs to settle the $100K in legal fees. Janus asked his lawyer for advice and the lawyer told him that he has a 50% chance of winning the case. If Janus loses, he will incur legal fees of $75K. If he wins, the full requested settlement is also not guaranteed. The lawyer believes that there is a 50% chance that Janus will receive full settlement of $3 million, of which Janus needs to settle $1 million in legal fees. There is a 50% chance that the jury will award Janus $1 million, of which 50% will be taken up by legal fees.

Sarah's comprehensive major medical health insurance plan at work has a deductible of $750. The policy pays 85 percent of any amount above the deductible. While on a hiking trip, she contracted a rare bacterial disease. Her medical costs for treatment, including medicines, tests, and a six-day hospital stay, totaled $8,893. A friend told her that she would have paid less if she had a policy with a stop-loss feature that capped her out-of-pocket expenses at $3,000. The policy with the stop-loss feature has the same deductible and coinsurance requirement as Sarah's current policy. Determine which policy would have cost Sarah less and by how much. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.) Current policy Stop-loss feature No difference in Sarah's cost for this claim. Difference amount

At the end of the season, the unsold sets were advertised at a discount of 53% of the new regular selling price. (Do not include the $ sign in your answers.) (a) What is the cost? (b) What is the regular selling price? (c) What is the new regular selling price? (d) What is the sale price?

The County Theater is an independent entertainment theater that is in the middle of a new renovation to expand their current layout of two screens. With their current renovation plan, they hope to increase their screens to three. As of now, they are still in need of $14,000 to finish the construction project. Through market research completed on their members as well as the greater community, they estimated that each donator would give around $50. As the donations have been coming in over the course of the last 18 months, they believe that the research estimate may have been too high. They created a sample of members consisting of 40 individuals. On average, they are willing to give $40 and the standard deviation for the sample is $1.35. With an alpha of .05, construct an appropriate hypothesis test. If you find that the null hypothesis is not true, what real world circumstance may have affected the research estimate?
A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost $15000 to install and will have a useful life of 4 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. are expected to be $1500. A new power line will cost $13000 to install, with power costs expected to be $1200 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 4 years, the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 14.00% per year, which alternative should be selected on the basis of a future worth analysis? (Include a minus sign if necessary.) The future worth of solar cells is $ _____ and that of electric line is $_____ . ?Solar cells? or ?Electric line? should be selected on the basis of a future worth analysis.
Giapetto is thinking of buying a new cutting tool for $20 to make toy soldiers and a new clamping tool for $15 to make toy trains. If he does not buy a new tool, he can still make a toy using the older tool he already has. However, using an old cutting tool leads to 50% of the produced soldiers and using an old clamping tool leads to 20% of the produced trains to be defective. With a new tool, there is no defective production. Giapetto cannot sell any defective product. Weekly demands (must be met exactly without left- over inventory) and productions costs are as follows: 1. Soldiers 2. Trains Demand (units/week) Production cost ($/unit) 400 300 7 17 There are other details about the problem which will be added later. Giapetto started formulating a mathematical model considering only the above description and defined the following decision variables: • xi: Production quantity for type i toy, i = 1, 2 corresponding to soldiers and trains, respectively. Considering the above problem…
