Salad Toppings: Donald Wheeler is ordering a salad at a Ruby Tuesday restaurant. He can purchase a salad consisting of just lettuce, or he can add any of the following items: cucumber, onion, tomato, carrot, green pepper, olive, mushroom. How many different variations of a salad are possible? Solution There are 7 different topping choices (ignore lettuce, since he has to get that), so we need the number of subsets of a set with 7 elements: 2^n=2^7= 128 choices.

Sabrina is the virtual team leader of a group that will be creating new sign designs for a retail
customer. The team members are distributed in four different locations across the United States.
Two of the team members are from the same technical area where the signs are actually printed.
The remaining members are from the graphic arts group.
Sabrina schedules the first meeting to take place at the headquarters. Many of the members are
unable to attend the meeting in person because of travel constraints. Despite being aware of this,
Sabrina fails to reschedule or use other methods for the meeting. During the meeting, key
assignments are made to the members not present at the meeting. Consequently, several
deliverables are not completed. Sabrina is not fami liar with graphic design and mandates
deadlines that some feel are unrealistic.

RSA cryptosytem Alice and Bob set up an RSA cryptosystem Bob choose.pdf
RSA cryptosytem Alice and Bob set up an RSA cryptosystem: Bob chooses the modulus 3131
and an encrypting exponent e = 7, and sends Alice the pair (m, e) = (3131, 7). Alice takes a two-
letter message, turns it into a four-digit number by replacing each letter by its place in the
alphabet (so A = 01, Z = 26), and sends Bob c = 1502. Bob knows that the decrypting exponent d
= 2143, so in order to find Alice\'s message, he needs to find 1502^2143 (mod 3131) Solve
Bob\'s problem in the following way: using that 3131 = 31 middot 101, reduce the problem to
that of finding two much smaller modular exponentiation problems. Then solve both problems.
Then solve a pair of congruences, one modulo 31 and one modulo 101, to find Alice\'s message.
Solution
Alice generates her RSA keys by selecting two primes: p=11 and q=13. The
modulusn=p×q=143. The totient of n (n)=(p1)x(q1)=120. She chooses 7 for her RSA public keye
and calculates her RSA private key using the Extended Euclidean Algorithm which gives her
103.
Bob wants to send Alice an encrypted message M so he obtains her RSA public key (n,e) which
in this example is (143, 7). His plaintext message is just the number 9 and is encrypted into
ciphertext C as follows:
Me mod n = 97 mod 143 = 48 = C
When Alice receives Bob’s message she decrypts it by using her RSA private key (d, n) as
follows:
Cd mod n = 48103 mod 143 = 9 = M
To use RSA keys to digitally sign a message, Alice would create a hash or message digest of her
message to Bob, encrypt the hash value with her RSA private key and add it to the message. Bob
can then verify that the message has been sent by Alice and has not been altered by decrypting
the hash value with her public key. If this value matches the hash of the original message, then
only Alice could have sent it (authentication and non-repudiation) and the message is exactly as
she wrote it (integrity). Alice could, of course, encrypt her message with Bob’s RSA public key
(confidentiality) before sending it to Bob. A digital certificate contains information that identifies
the certificate\'s owner and also contains the owner\'s public key. Certificates are signed by the
certificate authority that issues them, and can simplify the process of obtaining public keys and
verifying the owner..

Rose Corporation acquired 100 percent of Lilly Company’s outstanding common stock on
January 1, for $880,000 in cash. Lilly reported net assets with a carrying amount of $560,000 at
that time. Some of Lilly’s assets had fair values that differed from book values as follows:
Solution
(a) Amortization
Total amortization expense for the business combination
= Amortization of Rose + Amortization expense of Lilly (Book value) + Amortization expense
of Lilly for Fair value adjustment.
Fair value adjustments:
a. Customer relationship = $120,000 / 5 = $24,000
So, Amortization Expense = $40,000 + 0 + $24,000 = $64,000
(2) Depreciation
Total Depreciation expense for the business combination
= Depreciation of Rose + Depreciation expense of Lilly (Book value) + Depreciation expense of
Lilly for Fair value adjustment.
Fair value adjustments:
a. Equipment = $(499,200 - 547,200) / 10 = - $4,800
So, Depreciation Expense = $12.

risk in securites trading are?
Solution
Hi,
The biggest risk in securing trade is the price and liquidity risk. The price of any company is
very uncertain and it may go up or down so there is an inherent risk that losses may be incurred
as a result of buying and selling securities. Another risk is the beta risk. Beta risk is the risk
which affets the market as a whole. The risks cannot be diversified by investing in different
securities..

Solution
Retained Earnings are past profits of the company, which they use in declaring dividend to the
shareholders, setting off any extraordinary losses, to maintain the debt equity ratio / Total Asset
to Equity Ratio, for expanding the business, for avoiding interest cost in case of additional
capital requirement, etc.
Any restriction on retained earning is surely a reportable concern and should be highlighted on
the face of the balance sheet. Being such a material item for the stakeholders, this should also be
disclosed separately in notes to the financial statements as well accompanying the balance sheet..

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Rose Corporation acquired 100 percent of Lilly Company’s outstanding common stock on
January 1, for $880,000 in cash. Lilly reported net assets with a carrying amount of $560,000 at
that time. Some of Lilly’s assets had fair values that differed from book values as follows:
Solution
(a) Amortization
Total amortization expense for the business combination
= Amortization of Rose + Amortization expense of Lilly (Book value) + Amortization expense
of Lilly for Fair value adjustment.
Fair value adjustments:
a. Customer relationship = $120,000 / 5 = $24,000
So, Amortization Expense = $40,000 + 0 + $24,000 = $64,000
(2) Depreciation
Total Depreciation expense for the business combination
= Depreciation of Rose + Depreciation expense of Lilly (Book value) + Depreciation expense of
Lilly for Fair value adjustment.
Fair value adjustments:
a. Equipment = $(499,200 - 547,200) / 10 = - $4,800
So, Depreciation Expense = $12.

risk in securites trading are?
Solution
Hi,
The biggest risk in securing trade is the price and liquidity risk. The price of any company is
very uncertain and it may go up or down so there is an inherent risk that losses may be incurred
as a result of buying and selling securities. Another risk is the beta risk. Beta risk is the risk
which affets the market as a whole. The risks cannot be diversified by investing in different
securities..

Retained Earnings are past profits of the company, which they use in declaring dividend to the
shareholders, setting off any extraordinary losses, to maintain the debt equity ratio / Total Asset
to Equity Ratio, for expanding the business, for avoiding interest cost in case of additional
capital requirement, etc.
Any restriction on retained earning is surely a reportable concern and should be highlighted on
the face of the balance sheet. Being such a material item for the stakeholders, this should also be
disclosed separately in notes to the financial statements as well accompanying the balance sheet..

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism.
