Give and describe an example of a nominal measurement scale. Solution 2 Nominal At the first level of measurement, numbers are used to classify data. In fact words or letters would be equally appropriate. Say you wanted to classify a football team into left footed and right footed players, you could put all the left footed players into a group classified as 1 and all the right footed players into a group classified as 2. The numbers 1 and 2 are used for convenience, you could equally use the letters L and R, or the words LEFT and RIGHT to label the groups of players. Numbers are often preferred because text takes longer to type out and takes up more space. Another example is blood groups where the letter A, B, O and AB represent the different classe.

General thoughts on Civil Engineering. I Have a discussion Board on: Solution By the first look of the report card I was surprised to see that a developed economy like that of america has such a bad condition with its infrastructure. Trillions of investment are to be done in the infrastructure sector to get back in track and salvage the pride of the nation. The civil engineers have to enlighten the US citizens and law makers about the dire need for addressing the issues with infrastructure. ASCE has given a D+ in the latest report card and cited insufficient water ways, roads and urgent maintenance requirement for existing bridges and dams. The media is the best way to for civil engineers to put forward these issues to the general public. All the requirements and and consequences are to be showcased with clarity so that the public and law makers can understand its importance. The public can be educated about the importance of infra structure and the problems and disasters they may face if proper investments are not done within time..

G. With recent growth in the number of U.S. households wired for cable television, major advertisers are now beginning to show an increased interest in cable advertising. Since its inception, cable television has offered advertisers relatively inexpensive rates and selective target audiences. For purposes of comparison, A.J. Bush and J.H. Leigh conducted a content analysis of television commercials on three major networks, ABC, CBS and NBC, and three of the more popular well established cable networks, CNN, ESPN and TBS. Once of the variables measured was the number of advertisements shown during prime time (7:00-10:00) and late night (10:00- 12:00A.A.M.) viewing segments on two weekday evenings during November 2003. The results are summarized in the table below. Prime-Time Late-Night Totals MAJOR NETWORKS ABC CBS NBC 94 90 86 69 84 94 163 174 180 CABLE NETWORKS TBS CNN ESPN 66 95 87 47 60 45 113 155 132 TOTALS 518 399 917 Suppose an advertisement is selected at random from advertisements shown on the two weekday evenings during November 2003. What is the probability that the advertisement selected: Prime-Time Late-Night Totals MAJOR NETWORKS ABC CBS NBC 94 90 86 69 84 94 163 174 180 CABLE NETWORKS TBS CNN ESPN 66 95 87 47 60 45 113 155 132 TOTALS 518 399 917 Solution Now this one is... [P(ABC and Late-Night) + P(CBS and Prime-Time)] / Total = (69 + 90) / 917 = .1734 or 17.34%.

Solution 1(I) Dividends: This is the most common way to payout cash to shareholders. Dividend is paid annually & the decision to payout dividends totally depends upon the management of the company. (II) Repurchase of Shares: This is another way to payout cash. The repurchase can be done in multiple ways. The most common way is to buy the shares back from the open market on the prevailing prices. The other way is accelerated buy-back. 2) Companies with no better projects & future investment plans are more likely to payout dividends as the company doesn’t have any future projects, which can earn higher return than the market return & hence, they prefer to payout most of the profit through dividend. 3) Companies with a promising future projects, which have potential to generate higher returns, are very less likely to pay dividends as it’s always better to invest in a project with higher returns as it will stimulate growth & increase the value of the company. 4)(I) Declaration Date: The date, when dividends are announced by the board of directors.
