Magnesium has a density of 1.74 g/ml - which is pretty low for a metal, but still much greater than the density of the water or the HCI solution. So why did the little piece of Mg float up to the top of the tube when it broke free of the wire loop.

The readings for this concentrate on mercantilism, the Triangle Trade, slave plantations in the colonies, and the effects of the Enlightenment on society. On a page or two for this assignment, respond to the question:

Hunt discusses some of the conflicts that existed in mercantile philosophy and society during this time, particularly in relation to the pursuit of profit and the function of the state. How did England "rectify," if you will, the mercantile era's relentless pursuit of riches in the face of long-standing "historical" disapproval of such behavior (e.g., Roman Catholicism)?

A Diamante Poem follows a very specific format - there are seven lines, and each line must have a specific number and type of words. When you're finished, the poem will be in the shape of a diamond! Look at the format and example below, and then try writing your own diamante poem.

Line 1= Topic (noun)

Line 2 = Two describing words (adjectives)

Line 3 = Three action words (-ing verbs)

Line 4 = Four words: Two words about the topic and two words that are opposite of those in line 2

Line 5 = Three action words for the ending noun (-ing verbs)

Line 6 = Two words to describe ending noun (adjectives)

Line 7 = Ending noun (opposite of Line 1)

Directions: Create four diamante poems of your own.

Directions: Use what you have learned about figurative language to create vivid poems of your own.

1. Create three Haiku poems.

2. Create three Cinquain poems.

Kaelea, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $165,000. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $9,900 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 24 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 31 percent lower. The company is considering a $46,500 debt issue with an interest rate of 5 percent. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock. There are currently 5,500 shares outstanding. Assume the company has a market-to-book ratio of 1.0.
 
a. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued, assuming no taxes. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
 
 

 
b. Calculate the percentage changes in ROE when the economy expands or enters a recession, assuming no taxes. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)
 
 

  
Assume the firm goes through with the proposed recapitalization and no taxes.
 
c. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios after the recapitalization. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
 
 

 
d. Calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
 
 

 
Assume the firm has a tax rate of 40 percent.
 
e. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued. Also, calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
 
 

 
f. Calculate return on equity, ROE, under each of the three economic scenarios after the recapitalization. Also, calculate the percentage changes in ROE for economic expansion and recession, assuming the firm goes through with the proposed recapitalization. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
 
 

5. Do you see any similarities between how the Japanese Americans were treated then and how other ethnic groups are treated today in America? Explain.

“According to the asset approach to the exchange rate, there will be an overshooting of domestic currency when there is a once-and-for-all increase in foreign money demand.  However, this change in foreign money demand will have no effect on the domestic balance of payments in both short run and long run.”  True/False/Uncertain, explain with the support of ONE foreign exchange market diagram.

Note: 

• Quote the exchange rate as EDC/FC.
• DO NOT write “let Foreign be the home country and its currency be DC” and start your analysis; otherwise, you will receive a grade of ZERO for the whole question.

Compare your answer to initial long-run equilibrium.

Consider two economies, Home and Foreign.  The DC/FC exchange is determined by the asset approach to the exchange rate.

Both countries are identical in the following ways:

• Production function is given a typical Cobb-Douglas function: Y = AKαL(1-α).
• The (real) money demand is given by hY – kR,

where     h = fraction of income held in the form of money, 1> h > 0

k = sensitivity of money demand (MD) to a change in (nominal) interest rate. 

Home and Foreign differ in the following ways:

Note: 

• Quote the exchange rate as EDC/FC.
• Interest rates are expressed in decimal points (i.e., if R = 0.1, then it is interpreted as 10%).
• Keep your answer to at least 4 decimal points.

1. Initially, both countries are in their respective long-run equilibrium.  Find the long-run levels of prices in both countries and the DC/FC exchange rate if the (initial) expected DC/FC exchange rate is given by the ratio of domestic price level to foreign price level.  (6 points)

Suppose there are permanent changes in the domestic money market such that the central bank of Home shrinks its balance sheet.  As such, the level of money supply changes by 10%.  At the same time, the sensitivity of (domestic) money demand (MD) to a change in (nominal) interest rate changes to 6000.  In addition, any permanent change will cause the market the to revise their expected exchange rate by 0.3474 DC per FC. 

1. Find the short-run equilibrium DC/FC exchange rate. (5 points)
2. Find the new long-run equilibrium levels of prices in both countries and the DC/FC exchange rate. (4 points).
3. Now, suppose the central bank of Foreign finds the change in the short-run exchange rate in part (b) undesirable and wants to keep it EDC/FC at 1.75 via a temporary change in monetary policy. Is it possible for the foreign central bank to achieve this goal?  Yes/No, explain.  (5 points)

Note:  Empty cell only means the data is not given in the question, it does not mean the variable takes a value of zero. 

Country-specific information:

Country A:

• The households consume 55% of the country’s output.
• A has twin deficits and the size of (each) deficit is 10% of the country’s output.
• The sales of A’s products to B are worth 1550, while the purchases of B’s products by A are worth 3280.
• The value of financial assets sold to C’s residents is equal to 1945.

Country B:

• Private consumption represents 60% of GDP.
• The government of B runs a balanced budget.
• The central bank of B does not buy or sell any of its official reserves.
• The amount of financial assets purchased by the residents of B from the residents of A reaches 1810, while the amount of financial assets purchased from the residents of C is 1853.

Country C:

• Public savings and private savings are equal to 169 and 1183 respectively.
• C sells 1370 worth of final products to A.
• The level of C’s products purchased by B is 1165.
