Was the hypothesis supported? How do you know? How did you make sure you measured accurately and fairly?

Lab Report 1: Scientific Method

Directions:

Use the provided guidelines to complete the scientific method lab. Upload the lab as a file when you have completed the assignment.

  1. Follow the directions specified in Lab 1 for collecting data for practicing the scientific method.
    • You will need some friends and family for this experiment.
    • You will be measuring their right-hand index fingers and comparing that length to their hand length.
    • Your measurements will be in centimeters. Find a ruler that has centimeters. You should measure to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.
    • You will have to decide how to measure the hand length and index finger for each person to make it fair.
  2. After collecting, fill in the collected data in a data table. You can use Excel or any other program, or even hand draw to complete the data filling activity.
  3. Next, you will create a line graph with the help of the collected data.
    • The hand length goes on the X-axis and index finger length on the Y-axis in the graph.
    • You can make a graph on Excel or any program that you wish, or even hand draw it and scan it in.
  4. As the last part of the activity, you will have to draw a conclusion to the above activity by answering the following questions:
    • Was the hypothesis supported? How do you know?
    • How did you make sure you measured accurately and fairly?
  5. Also, write at least five lines explaining the scientific method to complete the lab assignment.

Additional Information: The points segregation for the activity of how to construct the graph is clearly defined in the attachment 7 Steps to Constructing a Graph & Explanation. This document was shared during the reading section of the module. Remember to download and refer to the points while doing the task.

What was Fisher’s Quantity Theory of Money Equation? Identify and explain each variable. Explain the relationship Fischer said existed between inflation and interest rates.

Economics Problem Set

1.) What was Fisher’s Quantity Theory of Money Equation? Identify and explain each variable. Explain the relationship Fischer said existed between inflation and interest rates.

2.) Keynes’ theory was not a radical break from Classical Economics like Marx but it still represented a significant deviation in many areas; economically, politically and even in the philosophy of the balance of power between the state and the individual. Explain in detail 3 specific ways that Keynes broke with Classical Economics.

3.) In the opening line of “The Pure Theory of Public Expenditure”, Samuelson makes an interesting statement that few economists have actually done much work in the area of public expenditures up to that point but had focused on taxation. This article reflects a clear change in thinking about the government’s role in the economy. Explain the shift this article represents with its focus on government expenditures and the notion that there is an optimal level of government expenditure.

4.) The Keynesian School argues for policy makers to have discretion and be able to respond to changes in the economic situation, primarily through the fiscal policy of changing government expenditure levels and tax rates. Friedman had a different view. Explain Friedman’s Monetarist approach and how it differed from Keynes/Samuelson.

Based on the five-year stock price performance of the companies in the portfolio, as well as other factors like macroeconomic, industry and company analysis, analyze possible reasons for the stock price changes as observed.

 ANALYSIS OF PERFORMANCE

 

  1. Choose THREE companies to form a portfolio of The companies can be diversified across different industries or from a single industry. Before making any selection, based from the fundamental information that you gathered from the search (for example the companies’ earnings, stock price historical performance, dividends, earnings per share (EPS), beta etc) you may also want to examine which sector and industry you think will grow more rapidly, hence, will give you more earnings than other sectors. Your selection can be based on the risk characteristics and your preference. Remember one of the finance rules “do not put all eggs in one basket” when selecting companies to include in your portfolio of investment.

 

  1. Write a brief description of each of the companies in your portfolio (including its sector and major competitors).

 

  1. Briefly explain the reasons for choosing the companies as your portfolio of investment:
    • Economic (macroeconomic) analysis (describes the macroeconomic situation in the particular country and its potential influence on the profitability of stocks).
    • Industry analysis (evaluates the situation in the particular industry/ economic sector and its potential influence on the profitability of stocks).
    • Based on your risk attitude (risk averse or risk taker) briefly explain your selection of companies.

 

  1. Record fundamental information about the companies – Company analysis: (create a table for the companies’ financial data):
  • company’s earnings (5-year earnings)
  • stock price historical performance (5-year performance in a chart)
  • dividends (5-year dividend history)
  • earnings per share (latest date)
  • beta (latest date)
  • market capitalization (latest date)
  • total assets (5-year period)
  • capital structure (total liabilities and total equity – 5-year period)

 

5.Assess major systematic and unsystematic risks of the companies. Read the Business section Form 10-K reports for US companies (http://www.sec.gov) – To find information about RISKS.

 

  1. Based on the five-year stock price performance of the companies in the portfolio, as well as other factors like macroeconomic, industry and company analysis, analyze possible reasons for the stock price changes as observed.

 

Describes the overall purpose of the program. Describes what functionality the video illustrates. Describes the input and output of the program shown in the video.

Performance task

3a. Provide a written response that:
(Approx. 150 words, for all subparts of 3a combined)

i. Describes the overall purpose of the program;
The purpose of the ‘Get Fit’ app is to aid users in understanding the number of calories they should be consuming based on their weight and goal.

ii. Describes what functionality the video illustrates;
The video displays the user typing in their weight and selecting what their goal they want to achieve in the future; either ‘gain weight’ or ‘lose weight’. Afterwards, the output will be shown to the user. they will be shown some key factors that they should involve adapt to such as the amount of calories, protein, and carbs they should eat.

iii. Describes the input and output of the program shown in the video
The user input of the program is once the user types in their weight and selecting their yearning goal. Once they select the ‘click’ button, the amount of calories they should adapt to will be shown.

3b. Capture and paste two program code segments you developed during the administration of this task which contain a list (or other collection type) being used to manage complexity in your program.

i. The first program code segment must show how data has been stored in the list.

ii. The second program code segment must show the data in the same list being processed, such as creating new data from the existing data or accessing multiple elements in the list, as part of fulfilling the program’s purpose. Then, provide a written response that does all three of the following:

iii. Identifies the name of the list being processed in this response

iv. Identifies what the data contained in the list is representing in your program

v. Explains how the selected list manages complexity in your program by explaining why your program code could not be written, or how it would be written differently, if you did not use the list

3c. Capture and paste two program code segments you developed during the administration of this task that contain a student-developed procedure which implements an algorithm used in your program and a call to that procedure. (Approx. 200 words, for all subparts of 3c combined, excluding program code)

i. This first program code segment must be a student-developed procedure that:
Defines the procedure’s name and return type (if necessary)
Contains and uses one or more parameters that have an effect on the functionality of the procedure; and

First call:
Second call:

ii. Describes what condition(s) is being tested by each call to the procedure
Condition(s) tested by the first call:
Condition(s) tested by the second call:
iii. Identifies the result of each call.
