1a. What do you see as the management decision problem?1b. What is the resulting research problem?2a. Overall how satisfied are respondents with the cable service on average and in the various aspects of the Country Cable service? What informs your answer?2b. Based on your calculations, do you think the customers are satisfied with their Country Cable service? Describe the reason for your response.3. The cable company thinks it has to communicate differently to men and women and wonders if the key performance indicator (KPI) of overall satisfaction is different by gender. Articulate the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis Ho and Ha. What do the data say on this point? Can you accept or reject the null Ho? What statistical test informs your answer?4. If the company is concerned with weak performance on satisfaction, what do these data suggest it should focus on to improve satisfaction overall as captured in question q8. What is the null hypothesis and what is the alternative hypothesis?What aspects of satisfaction for the cable service are related to overall satisfaction (q1- q 6). Where can you accept or reject the null hypothesis? What do you think Country Cable should focus on to improve overall satisfaction? What statistical test informs your answer?5. Do you think Country Cable has addressed all their questions as a result of the ad campaign infrastructure changes and resulting survey? If you were to (re) design the study/survey, what would you do differently?

Apply elementary descriptive statistics, probability theories and quantitative methods in business in business decision making under risk and uncertainty.For the applied assignment, please submit a 5 – 6 slide PPT (NOT including title page and references page) that includes the following parts:PART 1: Create a context: Introduce a real-world business situation or an imagined business scenario that may benefit from the theories and methods presented in the prior two weeks (Weeks 3 and 4 – see the objective stated in bold above). While creating the context, ask yourself: What business use cases may benefit from the quantitative methods offered last week and this week? Pick one. You can use Google or other search tools, or your own workplace experience, to create the context. Once you decide on the context, describe it clearly in your PPT presentation. Be sure to deliver all relevant information for the audience (in this case your instructor) to help him/her understand the context fully.Part 2: Show with examples how the quantitative methodology introduced in the prior two weeks relate to the business use case you introduced. (e.g., does the math/methodology help to resolve a business problem?) Be specific in your description of how you can use the quantitative information in connection with the business case (your context) you described. Give examples. Use technical terminology when necessary.Part 3: Reflect on your learning by answering these questions: What changes have you observed in your own learning or knowledge of math/quantitative methods as a result of the topics introduced in Weeks 3 and 4 of this course? What did you find most valuable or useful for your MBA education and/or your current/future career. (As you articulate your thoughts for Part 3, be original: Do not repeat the business context or situation you described in Parts 1 and 2. Think beyond that context).

ECON 330 Midterm Take-home Exam due Friday, April 9 before classBe sure to submit both your answers and your .R file on Courses.Name:1. What determines how much drivers are fined if they are stopped for speeding? Do demographics like age, gender, and race matter? To answer this question, we’ll investigate traffice stops and citations in Massachusetts using data from Makowsky and Stratmann (2009). Even though state law sets a formula for tickets based on how fast a person was driving, police officers in practice often deviate from the formula. The variables we use are in Table 6.12. An amount for the fine is given only for observations in which the police officer decided to assess a fine.(a) Is the effect of age on fines non-linear? Assess this question by estimating a model with a linear age term and a quadratic age term, controlling for MPHover, Female, Black, and Hispanic. Interpret the coefficients on the age variables using calculus.(b) Calculate the marginal effect of age at ages 25, 45, and 60. Calculate the age that is associated with the lowest predicted fine.(c) Do drivers from out of town and out of state get treated differently? Do state police and local police treat nonlocals differently? Estimate a model that allows us to assess whether out-of-towners and out-of-staters are treated differently and whether state police respond differently to out-of-towners and out-of-staters. To do this, add to part (a) the dummy variables OutTown and OutState, along with two interaction variables that multiply StatePol with each of the dummy variables. Interpret the coefficients on the relevant variables.(e) Test whether the two state police interaction terms are jointly significant. Briefly explain the results.2. Use globaled.csv, the data set on education and growth from Hanushek and Woessmann (2009) for this question. The variables are given in the codebook provided and Table 5.14 in the textbook.(a) Use standardized variables to assess whether the effect of test scores on economic growth is larger than the effect of years in school. At this point, simply compare the magnitude of the coefficients. We’ll do statistical tests next. The dependent variable is average annual GDP growth per year. For all parts of this exercise, control for standardized GDP per capita in 1960 and always use standardized variables in all parts.(b) Now conduct a statistical test of whether the effects of test scores and years in school on economic growth differ. Write the null hypothesis that the coefficients are the same and the appropriate alternative hypothesis. What is your conclusion about the null hypothesis?(c) Now add controls for openness of the economy and security of property rights. Which matters more: test scores or property rights? Conduct a statistical test of whether the effects of test scores and property rights differ. Write the null hypothesis that the coefficients are the same and the appropriate alternative hypothesis. What is your conclusion about the null hypothesis?

1.Your grandmother is in the hospital. The dosages for some of the medications she receives are based on weight. For one medicine, you consult a resource that says the safe dose is 0.05 mg to 1 mg per kg. Your grandmother’s chart says the doctor has ordered 0.5 gram per dose.Has a mistake been made? Explain your answer, including your assumptions about your grandmother’s weight.2. When your grandmother gets out of the hospital she is so happy that she gives you some money. You decide to go to Vancouver where the exchange rate is 0.76 US dollars for every Canadian dollar (as of June 21, 2019). You have $1,000 US to take with you.a. What is the equivalent value in Canadian dollars? Round to the nearest dollar.b. Do you have enough money to stay a week in Vancouver? Why or why not? Give details of your estimated expenses.3.While in Canada you get sick and go to the emergency room of a local hospital. The doctor there diagnoses your illness and prescribes a dose of medicine that will cure you completely. The order is for 50 mg of the medicine. A nurse comes in with a liquid and you ask to see the bottle. The bottle says 100 mg of medicine per 15 ml of liquid.a. How many milliliters should the nurse give you?b. Would she need to bring that to you in a little cup, a glass, or a large bottle?5.After looking at your grocery list, you are concerned that you may not be able to afford the food you have chosen to provide enough protein for your diet. So, you decide to get the biggest bang for your buck by comparing the amount of protein for the price. In the table below, fill-in the column labeled Price per Gram of Protein. Write your answers in terms of dollars, rounded to four decimal places.Food ItemPriceServingsProtein Per Serving (in grams)Price Per Gram of ProteinPinto Beans$0.923.56Peanut Butter$5.48357Canned Chicken$1.18213Oat Cereal$3.842186. Using the table that you completed in the previous question, answer the following:a. Which item is the best purchase in terms of price per gram of protein?b. Were you surprised by any of your results? Explain your answer.4.The doctor says the reason you fell ill is that you have a protein deficiency. You need to determine how much protein you should consume daily and increase your consumption to the recommended amount. The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of protein for adults is given by this graph:Graphically displays Recommended Daily Allowance Proteina. What is your weight, in kilograms? (if you are uncomfortable stating your weight, please state the weight of a hypothetical person instead).b. What is your recommended daily allowance for protein, expressed in grams per day?
