4. "Family Man," a construction company, is considering whether to bid on a contract for a new housing complex. The cost of preparing a bid USD 200,000. “Family Man" has a 0.8 probability of winning the contract, if it submits the bid. If "Family Man" wins the bid, it has to pay USD 2000,000 to be a project partner of the project. As per the usual practice, "Family Man" will then consider consulting a market research firm "Marquess" to conduct a market survey to forecast the demand of housing complex before beginning the construction. "Marquess" charges a fee of USD 150,000. Now, the demand scenario can be either "High demand" or "Low demand." "Family Man" gets a revenue of USD 5000,000 and USD 3000,000 in case of "High demand" and "Low demand" scenario, respectively. On the other hand, instead of construction, "Family Man" has a provision of selling its project rights to another project partner construction company at the price USD 3500,000. As per the historical data, "Marquess"…

Previous Problem Problem List Next Problem (1 point) Using diaries for many weeks, a study on the lifestyles of visually impaired students was conducted. The students kept track of many lifestyle variables including how many hours of sleep obtained on a typical day. Researchers found that visually impaired students averaged 9.2 hours of sleep, with a standard deviation of 2.24 hours. Assume that the number of hours of sleep for these visually impaired students is normally distributed. (a) What is the probability that a visually impaired student gets less than 6.4 hours of sleep? answer: (b) What is the probability that a visually impaired student gets between 6.2 and 8.84 hours of sleep? answer: (c) Thirty percent of students get less than how many hours of sleep on a typical day? answer: hours Note: You can earn partial credit on this problem.

54|David is looking to purchase an old church building. He hires an appraiser to help determine the market value of the property. Why would the appraiser most likely value the property using the cost approach? O A church is a specialty building that will most likely not have any comparable properties. It is also not an income producing property, so the best method would be the cost approach. O The income capitalization approach should be used rather than the cost approach. O A church building will have at least three comparable properties to use to help determine the market value. O The church building will most likely have income, which when a capitalization rate is applied will help determine the market value
Q1. The management of an oil company is trying to decide whether to drill for oil in a particular fieldin the Gulf of Mexico. It costs the company $600 thousand to drill in the selected field. Themanagement believes that if oil is found in this field, its estimated value will be $3400 thousand. Atpresent, this oil company believes that there is a 45% chance that the selected field actually containsoil. Before drilling, the oil company can hire a team of geologists to perform seismographic tests at acost of $55 thousand. Based on similar tests in other fields, the tests have a 25% false negative rate(no oil predicted when oil is present) and a 15% false positive rate (oil predicted when no oil ispresent).A. Assume the oil company wants to maximize its expected net earnings. Please utilize decisiontree analysis to determine its optimal strategy.B. Calculate the expected value of the information (EVI/EVSI) provided by the team ofgeologists.C. Conduct a sensitivity analysis on the chance…
