AaBbcd ABCD AaBbCcDc AaBbccde Normal No Spacing Heading 2 Use the information presented in Case One, the Four Corners Corporation in Chapter 16 (Simulation). The report should be presented as you would a formal business report to management Include appropriate numbers within the report, but leave any backup tables or spreadsheets to appendices which are clearly labeled and referred to in the report. Formats should be clear-for example, do not have tables extending from one page to the next. Your report should include, but not be limited to, anwwers to the following questions, 1. Without considering the random variability in growth rates, extend the worksheet given to 20 years and present this completed table. Confirm that by using the constant annual salary growth rate and the constant annual portfolio growth rate, Tom can expect to have a 20-year portfolio of $772,722. What would Tom's annual investment rate have to increase to in for his portfolio to reach a 20-year goal of $1,000,000? Show the table confirming this as well 2. Incorporate the random variability of the annual salary growth rate and the annual portfolio growth rate into a simulation model Salary growth is assumed to follow a uniform distribution between 0% and 10%. (Note: the text case says between 0% and 5%. Use a uniform distribution between 0% and 10%) Portfolio growth is assumed to follow a normal distribution with mean 10% and standard deviation 5%. Assume further an annual investment rate of 9% Using the following random numbers, generate values for salary and portfolio growth and perform a 20-year simulation. (Note: salary growth is not needed for the first year.) Present the table. What is the portfolio value after 20 years?

A 8 6 demand of C: numbers on the 8 arcs are unit transportation costs Find an initial solution. Is the solution optimal? Decide by u-v method. if not optimal do one network simplex iteration to find the new solution. List the goals which the reform process is normally expected to achieve. List the two sectors in which the growth rate of industrial production was higher in the post reform period and two sectors in which it has been the other way round. Identify two infrastructure industries which fared better during the post reform period and two that fared badly. State whether the following statements are True or False. (a) The benefits of exports growth have been more than neutralised due to rapid rise in imports. (b) The annual GDP growth rate has averaged more than 7% during 1990-91 to 2000-01. (c) A major sin of economic reform is gross neglect of agriculture. (d) During the post reform period, wholesale inflation has been higher than the retail inflation
