Option A: $5.18.
Option B: none of these answers.
Option C: $5.74.
Option D: $6.10.
Show/Hide Answer
Option c : $5.74.
There are 3 + 4 + 2 = 9 workers. The total wages paid equal 3*5.3 + 4*4.9 + 2*8.1 = $51.7. The average pay equals 51.7/9 = $5.74

What semiannual deposit is needed to accumulate $8,000 in 5 years if the account pays 7% per year, compounded semiannually, assuming that the first deposit is made in 6 months and also assuming that the account already has $1,250 in it today?

Option B: $677.44.
Option C: $559.52.
Option D: $278.01.
Option E: $531.63
Show/Hide Answer
Option E : $531.63
On the BAII Plus, press 10 N, 7 divide 2 = I/Y, 1250 PV, 8000 +/- FV, CPT PMT. On the HP 12C, press 10 n, 7 ENTER 2 divide i, 1250 PV, 8000 CHS FV, PMT. Note that the answer this time is a positive number. This means that the $531.63 is a deposit in addition to the $1,250 original deposit. The $5,000 is entered as a negative number, because the $1,250 and the $531.63 are deposits and the $8,000 is a withdrawal. Make sure the BAII Plus has the value of P/Y set to 1.

Free CFA Level 1 Quiz Question NO: 377:
Suppose 1,600 of 2,000 registered voters sampled said they planned to vote for the Republican candidate for president. Using the 0.95 degree of confidence, what is the interval estimate for the population proportion (to the nearest tenth of a percent)?
Option A: 77.7% to 82.3%.
Option B: 78.2% to 81.8%.
Option C: 69.2% to 86.4%.
Option D: None of these answers.
Option E: 76.5% to 83.5%.
Show/Hide Answer
Option B : 78.2% to 81.8%.
Interval estimate can be found from p +/- z[p(1-p/n]^0.5. Here we
have n = 2000, p = 1600/2000 = 0.8 and z = 1.96 (for 95%).
Therefore 0.8 +/- 1.96*0.008944 and we get 0.7825 and 0.8175.

The average cost of tuition, room and board at a small private liberal arts college is reported to be $8,500 per term, but a financial administrator at Moravian College believes that the average cost is much higher. A study was conducted using 150 small liberal arts colleges and findings showed that the average cost per term is $9,000 with a standard deviation of $1,200. Let alpha = 0.05. The Ho: Mu less than or equal to $8,500. H1: Mu is bigger than $8,500. What is the critical z-value for this test?
Option A: -1.645.
Option B: None of these answers.
Option C: +1.645.
Option D: -1.96.
Option E: +1.96.
Show/Hide Answer
Option C : +1.645.
From the hypothesis, this is a one tailed test. Since alpha is 0.05. We have 0.05, which gives us a z value of +/1.645. From the Ho we see that the rejection region lies to the right of the mean, so the critical value is +1.645.
