use the given data on the societal cost of crashes and the approximate U.S. population of 325 million to calculate the average social cost per person.
U.S. Data (2016 estimates): Car Crash fatalities = 40,200; Car Crash injuries = 4.6 million; cost to society = $430 billion. (source: National Safety Council.)
• Global Data (estimated); car crash fatalities = ≈ 50 million; car crash fatalities with victim's underage 45 ≈ 400,000. (Source: Association Safe International Road Travel.)

Smyrna University has gained an excellent reputation for its post-graduate courses, and thus the University has attracted a large number of students who are interested in postgraduate studies and located in Southern and North-Western parts of Turkey. The fees paid by these students make an important contribution to the University’s annual budgeted income. To support the recruitment of students from North-Western and Southern Turkey, the University has established a small department to promote its courses and to liaise with education institutions in Southern and North-Western cities. However, this year there has been a noticeable reduction in the number of applications from Southern and North-Western parts of Turkey. The University authorities are unsure if this is because of the global economic downturn, or if there are other factors causing this reduction.

The Atlantic Coast branch, with current sales of $193.8 million, is expected to achieve sales growth of 7.25%; the Midwest branch, with current sales of $79.3 million, is expected to have a increase of 8.20%, and that the Pacific Coast branch, with current sales of $57.5 million, increase its sales 7.15%. What is the predicted average growth rate in sales for the next year? Select one: Or a. The predicted average rate in sales for the next year is 7.46% Or b. The predicted average rate in sales for the next year cannot be calculated due to lack of information O c. The predicted average rate in sales for the next year is 22.6% Or d.

- Accounting procedures allow a business to evaluate its inventory costs based on two methods: LIFO (last in first out) or FIFO (first in first out). A manufacturer evaluated its finished goods inventory (in $000s) for five products with the LIFO and FIIFO methods. To analyze the difference, they computed FIFO - LIFO for each product. We would like to determine if the LIFO method results in a lower cost of inventory than the FIFO method. The company wishes to test this hypothesis at the 0.05 level of significance.

Major retailers, such as Walmart and Target, added food to complement their merchandise sales and Amazon recently purchased Whole Foods. For many companies, forecasts of industry sales are necessary information to plan for short- and long-term decisions. Using the total U.S. grocery store annual sales in millions of dollars (https://www.census.gov/retail/index.html#mrts) in the following table, respond to the following items.arrow_forwardWhat is objective optimization?arrow_forward
- Although Social Security is a problem, some projections indicate that there's a much bigger time bomb ticking in the federal budget, and that's Medicare. In 2000, the cost of Social Security was 5.48% of the gross domestic product, increasing by 0.04% of the GDP per year. In 2000, the cost of Medicare was 1.84% of the gross domestic product, increasing by 0.17% of the GDP per year. (Source: Congressional Budget Office) a. Write a function that models the cost of Social Security as a percentage of the GDP x years after 2000. b. Write a function that models the cost of Medicare as a percentage of the GDP x years after 2000. c. In which year will the cost of Medicare and Social Security be the same? For that year, what will be the cost of each program as a percentage of the GDP? Which program will have the greater cost after that year?arrow_forwardMyrtle Air Express decided to offer direct service from Cleveland to Myrtle Beach. Management must decide between a full-price service using the company’s new fleet of jet aircraft and a discount service using smaller capacity commuter planes. It is clear that the best choice depends on the market reaction to the service Myrtle Air offers. Management developed estimates of the contribution to profit for each type of service based upon two possible levels of demand for service to Myrtle Beach: strong and weak. The following table shows the estimated quarterly profits (in thousands of dollars): Demand for Service Service Strong Weak Full price $960 -$490 Discount $670 $320 1. Suppose that the probability of strong demand is 0.8 and the probability of weak demand is 0.2. What is the optimal decision using the expected value approach?Optimal Decision: Use graphical sensitivity analysis to determine the range of demand probabilities for which each of the decision…arrow_forwardMyrtle Air Express decided to offer direct service from Cleveland to Myrtle Beach.
