1. Stan and Anne were divorced in January 2015. The provisions of the divorce decree and Anne’s obligations follow: Transfer title in their resort condo to Stan. At the time of the transfer, the condo had a basis to Anne of $75,000, a fair market value of $195,000; it was subject to a mortgage of $58,000 Anne is to make the mortgage payments for 17 years regardless of how long Stan lives. Anne paid $9,130 in 2015 on the mortgage. Anne is to pay Stan $1,200 per month, beginning in Feb, for 10 years or until Stan dies. Of this amount, $520 is designated as child support. Anne made all the payments required in 2015. What would the effect of these payments be on the AGI of Anne and Stan? Solution Anne - Transfer of title of Condo - Non Taxable as Property Settlements pursuant to divorce. $ 1200 paid as Alimony out of which $ 520 is designated as child support. Amount for child support is non taxable. Hence, $ 680 * 11 = $ 7480 is allowed as deduction to arrive at AGI. Stan - Transfer of title of Condo - Non Taxable as Property Settlements pursuant to divorce. $ 1200 paid as Alimony out of which $ 520 is designated as child support. Amount for child support is non taxable. Hence, $ 680 * 11 = $ 7480 is taxable as income..

1. Suppose the scores of students on an exam are Normally distributed with a mean of 294 and a standard deviation of 55. Then approximately 99.7% of the exam scores lie between the numbers ________ and ________ such that the mean is halfway between these two integers. 2. Suppose the scores of students on a Statistics course are Normally distributed with a mean of 175 and a standard deviation of 58. What percentage of the students scored between 175 and 291 on the exam? (Give your answer to 3 significant figures.) percent :_____________ Solution 1. By the 68-95-99.7% rule, 99.7% of the exam score lie within 3 Standard deviations of the mean. 294+55+55+55=459 294-55-55-55=129 Approximately 99.7% of the exam scores lie between the numbers 129 and 459. 2. N(175,58) 291-58-58=175. A score of 291 is 2 standard deviations from the mean, so the percentage is 34+13.5=47.5%, by the 68-95-99.7% rule. 47.5% of students scored between 175 and 291 on the exam.

1. Suppose replacement times for washing machines are normally distributed with a mean of 8.7 years and a standard deviation of 1.6 years. Find the replacement time that separates the top 18% from the bottom 82%. Solution Let X be the replacement time for washing machines. X~N(8.7,1.6^2). Find x such that P(X P(Z<(x-8.7)/1.6)=0.82. From tables (or excel/R =NORMSINV(0.82)/qnorm(0.82)), (x- 8.7)/1.6=0.915365. Therefore x=10.16458. Hence the replacement time is 10.2 years that separates the top 18% from the bottom 82%..

1. Regression analysis was applied between sales in ($1000) and advertising(in $100), and the following regression function was obtained: Y = 61 +4.1X Based on this regression line, if advertising is $10,000, the point estimate for sales (in dollars) is what 2. How do we use a least squares regression line? 3. What is the range for the coefficient of determination? Solution 1) $10000 in advertisement = 100 units so answer = 61 + 4.1 *100 = 4116 units of sales 2) We can use a least square regression line to basically model a set of data. 3) 0<= Co- efficient of determination<=1.

Some of these instrucments include T-Bills, Commerical paper, Federal funds, Certificate of Deposite, Eurodollars etc. The demand and supply participants for short term funds includes corporations, financial institutions and governments. The need for a well functioning money market arises so that these participants can access these market to buy cheap loans of shorter duration. There could arise a situation where timings of the inflows and outflows of cash are not very well synchronized.
