Calculate the weight in k/ft, of a reinforced concrete beam that has a cross section b=12″and h=25″. Span length is 20ft

Since our reading of the case, CEMEX has developed IT and Business Process Evolution (BPE) organization, together with an Evolution Committee. Back-office processes were grouped together, leaving a total of four core processes out of eight. One BPE leader, with full-time responsibility, was appointed to focus on the effectiveness and improvement of each one of the four processes. The team developed and maintained an IT platform for submitting and refining ideas. The team involves country representatives and ensures more openness to accept cultural issues.   Which best describes this stage in the evolution of enterprise architecture?

In a random sample of 40 cases there were 25 successes and 15 failures. We want to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of successes in the population. StatKey was used to construct a bootstrap sampling distribution using count = 25 and sample size = 40. The bootstrap distribution was approximately normal with a standard error of 0.076 Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of successes in the population using the standard error method. Use the following formula, where SE is the standard error:        statistic +/- (2 * SE)

Exam data were collected from a representative sample of 37 students. Their mean score was 90.27 points with a standard deviation of 6.793 points. StatKey was used to construct a bootstrap sampling distribution, which was approximately normal with a standard error of 1.121 Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the mean score in the population of all students using the standard error method. Use the following formula, where SE is the standard error:        statistic +/- (2 * SE)

for Problems 17, 18 and 19, Pick 2 of these three.  (Write Skip for the one you do not want graded).   A building owner is evaluating the following alternatives for leasing space in an office building for the next Three years:                                     Net lease with CPI adjustments.  The rent will be $20 per square the first year.  After the first year, the rent will be increased by half of the amount of any increase in the CPI.  The CPI is expected to increase 4 percent per year.                         Net lease with steps.  Rent will be $18 per square foot the first year and will increase by $2.50 per square foot each year until the end of the lease.  All operating expenses will be paid by the tenant.               Gross lease.  Rent will be $32 per square foot each year with the lessor responsible for payment of all operating expenses. Expenses are estimated to be $8 during the first year and increase by $1 per year thereafter.               Gross lease with expense stop and CPI adjustment (Gross Lease PLUS).  Rent will be $22 the first year and increase by half of the amount of any change in the CPI after the first year with an expense stop at $8 per square foot.  The CPI and operating expenses are assumed to change by the same amount as outlined above.               a.         Calculate the effective rent to the owner (after expenses) for each lease alternative using a 12 percent discount rate. 1. Net lease with CPI adjustments                                2. Net lease with steps                        3. Gross lease                      4. Gross lease PLUS                   b.         How would you rank the alternatives in terms of risk to the Owner? (Briefly justify your ranking.)                        C.  Which would the Tenant prefer?  (explain why)    

for Problems 17, 18 and 19, Pick 2 of these three.  (Write Skip for the one you do not want graded).   A retail lease for 12,000 square feet of rentable space is being negotiated for a THREE-year term.                         Option A calls for a base rent of $25 per square foot for the coming year with step-ups of $1 per year each year thereafter.  CAM charges are expected to be $3 for the coming year and are forecasted to increase by 5 percent at the end of each year thereafter.                         Option B calls for a lower base rent of $23 per square foot with the same step-ups and CAM charges, but the tenant must pay overage rents based on a percentage lease clause.  The clause specifies that the tenant must pay 25 percent on gross sales over a breakpoint level of $920,000 per year.  The owner believes that the tenant’s gross sales will be $850,000 during the first year but should increase at a rate of 10 percent per year each year thereafter.             a.         If the property owner believes that a 15 percent rate of return should be earned annually on this real estate investment, which option is best for the property owner?             b.         What if sales are expected to increase by 8 percent per year Which would the TENNENT Chose?   

Work this problem: Assume that a lender offers a 15-year, $175,000 adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) with the following terms:                         Initial interest rate = 7.5 percent                         Index = 1-year Treasuries                         Payments reset each year                         Margin = 1.5 percent                         Interest rate cap = 1 percent annually; 3 percent lifetime                         Discount points = 2 percent                         Negative amortization allowed             Based on estimated forward rates, the index to which the ARM is tied is forecasted as follows:  Beginning of year (BOY) 2 = 7 percent; (BOY) 3 = 8.5 percent;               Compute the payments, loan balances, and yield for the ARM for the three-year period.   A. Year one payment; Loan balance  B. Year two payment; Loan balance  C. Year three payment; Loan balance D.  What is the Yield for this loan assuming it is paid off at the end of year 3 E.  Amortize the first 2 payments of year 3 (payments 25 and 26 of the loan) using the proper form as illustrated in the recent Zoom recording.  Options
