Michael is approached by a man carrying two boxes. The stranger tells Michael to pick a box and take the money inside the box. The stranger further tells Michael that the probability of the box he didn\'t open containing twice as much money is 1=2. What is the expected amount of money in the other Box? What is paradoxical about this? Solution Let the total amount be X Michael has to choose only one box out of two So the probability of choosing a box is 1/2. Now since the probability of having twice the amount in the box he didn\'t picked up is 1/2 so the expection or the expected value = E(2x) = 2x* P(2x).

Mirrlees\' 1971 paper (An Exploration in the Theory of Optimum Income Taxation) on optimal
taxation can sometimes be hard to follow. Does anybody know of (or could even provide here) a
simple sketch of the derivations of the optimal nonlinear income tax schedule in his paper?

You can find a didactic exposition of Mirrlees (1971) including derivations of optimal tax
schedule formulas for different social welfare and utility function in section 4.2 of \"The

Military and law enforcement applications of UAVs have been placed u.pdf
Military and law enforcement applications of UAVs have been placed under a higher level of
scrutiny due to issues associated with privacy and engagement. However, NASA has been
operating UAVs and unmanned space systems for decades without the same degree of public
perception issues. How do unmanned aircraft robotic systems (i.e., MQ-9 Reaper) differ from
civilian unmanned space systems (e.g., NASA Curiosity Rover)? Consider their similarities
regarding mission performance, functionality, design, and support
Solution
Military
As of January 2014, the U.S. military operated 7,362 RQ-11B Ravens; 145 AeroVironment RQ-
12A Wasps; 1,137AeroVironment RQ-20A Pumas; 306 RQ-16 T-Hawk small UAS; 246
Predators and MQ-1C Grey Eagles; 126 MQ-9 Reapers; 491 RQ-7 Shadows and 33 RQ-4 Global
Hawk large systems.
Reconnaissance
The Tu-141 \"Swift\" reusable Soviet reconnaissance drone is intended for reconnaissance to a
depth of several hundred kilometers from the front line at supersonic speeds.[91] The Tu-123
\"Hawk\" is a supersonic long-range reconnaissance drone (UAV) intended for conducting
photographic and signals intelligence to a distance of 3200 km; it was produced beginning in
1964.[92] The La-17P (UAV) is a reconnaissance UAV produced since 1963.[93] In 1945 the
Soviet Union began producing \"doodlebug\".[94] 43 Soviet/Russian UAV models are
known.[95]
In 2013, the U.S. Navy launched a UAV from a submerged submarine, the first step to
\"providing mission intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities to the U.S. Navy\'s
submarine force.\"[96]
Attack
MQ-1 Predator UAVs armed with Hellfire missiles have been used by the U.S. as platforms for
hitting ground targets. Armed Predators were first used in late 2001, mostly aimed at
assassinating high-profile individuals (terrorist leaders, etc.) inside Afghanistan. UAVs avoid
potential diplomatic embarrassment when a manned aircraft is shot down and the pilots captured.
Defense against UAVs
The US armed forces have no defense against low-level drone attack, but the Joint Integrated Air
and Missile Defense Organization is working to repurpose existing systems. Two German
companies are developing 40-kW lasers to damage UAVs. Three British companies jointly
developed a system to track and disrupt UAV control mechanisms. Other systems still include
the OpenWorks Engineering Skywall and the Battelle DroneDefender.
Targets for military training
Since 1997, the US military has used more than 80 F-4 Phantoms converted into UAVs as aerial
targets for combat training of human pilots. The F-4s were supplemented in September 2013
with F-16s as more realistically maneuverable targets.
Civil
Civil uses include aerial crop surveys, aerial photograpy, search and rescue, inspection of power
lines and pipelines, counting wildlife delivering medical supplies to otherwise inaccessible
regions, and detection of illegal hunting, reconnaissance operations, cooperative environment
monitoring, border patrol missions, conv.

Minah and farhana had a total of $ 132 . After Farhana spent 1/3 of her money and Minah spent
$ 30.50 , Minah had twice as much money as Farhana .
How much more money did Minah have than Farhana at first ?
Solution
let farhana had x$ and minah had (132-x)$
now farhana has = x-(1/3)x = (2/3)x and minah has (132-x-30.5)$ after spending money
=>2*(2/3)x = ((132-x)-30.50) (as minah has twice of farhana now)
=> (4/3)x = 101.5 - x
=>(7/3)x = 101.5
=> x = 43.50$
fahana had 43.5$ and minah had 132-43.5 = 88.5$
hence minah had 45$ more than farhana at first..

Most U.S. and some European airlines now impose additional charges f.pdf
Most U.S. and some European airlines now impose additional charges for everything but a seat
on the flight. Specific seat selection, baggage, beverages, and nearly every amenity that was once
included in the ticket price is now a source of “ancillary” airline revenues. Discuss whether this
trend is beneficial or detrimental to passengers.
Solution
earlier the air ticket included the ancillary costs as overhead in the ticket cost. Noe they are
charged separately. In general view it is detrimental to the passengers as it increases the cost od
air travel as a whole.
But if we see another angle, all these services are not used or equally used by all passengers. So ,
earlier the average cost of these services were shared among all passengers whether they use it or
not. Now the passenger is spening only the airfare as basic minimum ticket cost. The anicillary
services are paid as one uses it. So it is more equitable charge for the services consumed. The
passengers not using the services are not getiing burdened by the cost of services consumed by
other passengers.
Therefore in a broader way this is beneficial to the passengers as a more accurate reflection of
the cost of service consumed..

Assignment
In a well-written, 4- to 5-page paper, apply the Utility Test to the Enron case study.
Keys to the Assignment
1. Choose an ethical issue raised by the Enron case study – e.g., Enron’s accounting fraud, the
company’s reward systems, its use of “special purpose entities,” or Enron’s “deal making”
culture.
2. Apply the Utility Test: http://ethicsops.com/UtilityTest.php
3. Be sure that you follow each step of the Utility Test (use a separate section heading for
discussion of each step of the test):
A. Introduce the test.
B. Briefly discuss why utility ethics is a valid way of deciding right and wrong.
C. Apply the tes
Step 1: Identify the alternative actions that are possible and the persons and groups (the
stakeholders) who will be affected by these actions.
Step 2: For each of the most promising alternatives, determine the benefits and costs to each
person or group affected.
Step 3: Select the action in the current situation that produces the greatest benefits over costs for
all affected.
Step 4: Discuss what would happen if the action were a policy for all similar situations.
D. Draw a conclusion. If the same action is selected in Steps 3 & 4, then the action is an ethical
one. If different actions are selected, decide whether the individual action will produce the
greatest good and the least harm, for all affected, over the long term.
4. Be sure to use at least two sources from the library to support your discussion and analysis
(choose sources that are not included in the Background section of Module 3).

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Michelle used a sample of 50 U.S. cities to estimate the relationshi.pdf
Michelle used a sample of 50 U.S. cities to estimate the relationship between crime, or annual
property crimes per 100,000 persons, and income, or median income per capita. Her estimated
regression equation was crime = 428 - .01 income. Assuming her model is statistically
significant, if income decreases by $1,000, we would predict that crime will?
A. decrease by 1
B. increase by 10
C. decrease by 10
D. increase by 100
Solution
We multiply the slope coefficient by the change in income:
-.01(1000) = 10
Crime will decrease by 10..

Assignment
In a well-written, 4- to 5-page paper, apply the Utility Test to the Enron case study.
Keys to the Assignment
1. Choose an ethical issue raised by the Enron case study – e.g., Enron’s accounting fraud, the
company’s reward systems, its use of “special purpose entities,” or Enron’s “deal making”
culture.
2. Apply the Utility Test: http://ethicsops.com/UtilityTest.php
3. Be sure that you follow each step of the Utility Test (use a separate section heading for
discussion of each step of the test):
A. Introduce the test.
B. Briefly discuss why utility ethics is a valid way of deciding right and wrong.
C. Apply the tes
Step 1: Identify the alternative actions that are possible and the persons and groups (the
stakeholders) who will be affected by these actions.
Step 2: For each of the most promising alternatives, determine the benefits and costs to each
person or group affected.
Step 3: Select the action in the current situation that produces the greatest benefits over costs for
all affected.
Step 4: Discuss what would happen if the action were a policy for all similar situations.
D. Draw a conclusion. If the same action is selected in Steps 3 & 4, then the action is an ethical
one. If different actions are selected, decide whether the individual action will produce the
greatest good and the least harm, for all affected, over the long term.
4. Be sure to use at least two sources from the library to support your discussion and analysis
(choose sources that are not included in the Background section of Module 3).
Follow the guidelines in The Student Guide to Writing a High Quality Academic Paper.
You are expected to demonstrate evidence of critical thinking – as defined in the background
materials and the grading rubric.
Assignment Expectations
Your paper will be evaluated using the grading rubric.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Michael is approached by a man carrying two boxes. The stranger tell.pdf
- 1. Michael is approached by a man carrying two boxes. The stranger tells Michael to pick a box and take the money inside the box. The stranger further tells Michael that the probability of the box he didn't open containing twice as much money is 1=2. What is the expected amount of money in the other Box? What is paradoxical about this? Solution Let the total amount be X Michael has to choose only one box out of two So the probability of choosing a box is 1/2. Now since the probability of having twice the amount in the box he didn't picked up is 1/2 so the expection or the expected value = E(2x) = 2x* P(2x)
