Sometimes we get a bit caught up in the technical details of subject areas.  In my opinion, if you can explain things in simple terms that means you really get the concept.  Here are two ideas that I want you to explain in simple terms. a. You have a chance to make a $10m investment today that will lead to a one-time increase in profit for your company of exactly $11m in exactly 5 years. Explain why the value of that increased profit (present value) is less than $11m today. b. You are the line producer on a film set.  You decide to rent an IMAX camera rig for $1,000 per-day.  You also are in charge of constructing a large full-scale wooden pirate ship for $500,000, which will be blown up during a filming scene. Assess the (a.) camera rental and (b.) pirate ship as either fixed or sunk costs.

One estimate from the Houston avocado data was a price elasticity of demand of −0.692. 1. Interpret this coefficient in plain language, and state whether demand for conventional avocados in Houston is elastic or inelastic. 2. What does that classification imply about how a price increase affects total revenue for sellers of avocados? 

Walmart and other retailers are dealing with increasing rates of theft of merchandise (made worse by the proliferation of self-checkout kiosks, potentially). Specifically, people are stealing small but expensive items, like packages of razor blade refills. Walmart is considering hiring more security guards to address this problem. The table below shows how the weekly number of thefts varies with the number of security guards hired: Number of Security Guards Number of Thefts of Razor Blades 0 50 1 30 2 20 3 14 4 8 5 6 Suppose each stolen package of razor blades costs Walmart $25, and security guards can be hired at $200 per week. How many security guards should the store employ? Put the profit maximizing number of security guards in the first box (1,2,3,4, etc.) Briefly explain your answer in the second answer box.

How do you know? Hint: you should not have to show any additional calculations.

Again, use the same TC and MC functions. (They are repeated below).  What is the average variable cost at a quantity of 10?

The demand for salt is relatively price inelastic, while the demand for pretzels is relatively price elastic. How can you best explain why?

Compare the two Lewis structures shown (Structure A and Structure B). Which do you predict to have a higher boiling point and why? Structure A Structure B Same boiling point Because more energy is required to overcome the dipole–dipole interactions compared to LDF. overcoming hydrogen bonding interactions require more energy than overcoming dipole–dipole interactions. They have the same molecular geometries therefore they will have the same types of interactions requiring the same energy.

Chlorine (Cl2) and fluorine (F2) are both gases at room temperature. Which do you predict to be more soluble in water at this temperature and why? Cl2 F2 Because It is smaller and can fit better between water molecules. It can form H-bonding interactions with water. It forms stronger dipole-induced dipole interactions with water.
