Option = B (for Prof. Schwartz… disregard) Roberts Associates is a consulting firm for businesses. Roberts has two large clients, one of which is SALT Inc. Roberts is working on a large project for SALT Inc. which has a due date of 10/01/2025. Unfortunately, the Project Manager anticipates there is a possibility that the project will be delayed.  Based on historical experience of other similar projects, the Project Manager has estimated the following on the project for SALT Inc: The probability of no delay = 50% The probability of a delay of 5 days = 25% The probability of a delay of 10 days = 20% The probability of a delay of 15 days = 5% Per the terms of the contract with SALT Inc. > Each day the project is delayed past the 10/01/2025 deadline = $2,500 is taken off of the agreed price of the project.  (i.e. = every day the project is delayed = $2,500 financial consequence for Roberts Associates)   Based on the above information – please answer the following questions:   Part A: [3 points] From the perspective of Roberts Associates: calculate the Expected Value of the financial consequence from the delay of the project past the 10/01/2025 deadline for SALT Inc. (round to the nearest whole number!!!) (even though you are calculating a “loss” > keep your expected value calculation in POSTIVE numbers)  (type your answer in number format > meaning no symbols ($), no commas, no decimals)    ANSWER: Expected Value of the financial consequence from the delay of the project for SALT Inc. = [EXPVAL]     Part B: [2 points] Based on the historical experience of other similar projects, the Project Manager has also calculated the following in regard to the project for SALT Inc: The variance of the financial consequence from the delay of the project for SALT Inc = 134,375,000 Take the variance as FACT (you do NOT need to calculate it)  From the perspective of Roberts Associates: calculate the Standard Deviation of the financial consequence from the delay of the project past the 10/01/2025 deadline for SALT Inc.  (round to the nearest whole number!!!) (even though you are calculating a “loss” > keep your expected value calculation in POSTIVE numbers)  (type your answer in number format > meaning no symbols ($), no commas, no decimals)    ANSWER: Standard Deviation of the financial consequence from the delay of the project for SALT Inc = [STDDEV]     Part C: [5 points] Roberts Associates has another large client: PEPPER Corporation. Roberts Associates is working on a large project for PEPPER Corporation as well, which also has a due date of 10/01/2025. The Project Manager of this project also anticipates the possibility it could be delayed.  Based on historical experience of other similar projects, the Project Manager has estimated and calculated the following in regard to the project for PEPPER Corporation: The Expected Value of the financial consequence from the delay of the project for PEPPER Corp. = $19,975 The Standard Deviation of the financial consequence from the delay of the project for PEPPER Corp. = $30,362 (Take these calculations as FACT… meaning you do NOT need to calculate them)    The CEO of Roberts Associates is concerned about the possible delays on these two key projects: In terms of the key measure of objective risk (the key measure of volatility) > which project faces more uncertainty in terms of financial consequence (loss) from delay?  (i.e. = which project should the CEO be more “uncertain” about the outcome? SALT or PEPPER?)   ANSWER for SALT Inc: NUMERICAL VALUE for KEY Measure of Objective Risk = [COVSALT] (Round to TWO decimal places)  (type your answer in number format > meaning no symbols ($), no commas)   ANSWER for PEPPER Corp: NUMERICAL VALUE for KEY Measure of Objective Risk = [COVPEP] (Round to TWO decimal places)  (type your answer in number format > meaning no symbols ($), no commas)   FINAL ANSWER: Which project faces the MOST risk objectively? = [FINALANSWER] Simply type the number (1, 2, 3, or 4) of your answer:  SALT Inc. PEPPER Corp. SALT Inc. and PEPPER Corp. face the same amount of risk objectively Cannot be determined

A election pollster calls a potential voter and asks, “Do you plan to vote for Thompson, knowing that he is soft on crime?”  Explain why this question will likely not lead to an authentic answer. A clinic calls patients and asks them to rate their experience on a recent doctor visit.  Explain why the results of such calls will likely not represent all patients’ experiences.
