An insurance agent (interviewed in Jonathan Clements, “Dare to Live Dangerously: Passing on Some Insurance Can Pay Off,” Wall Street Journal, July 23, 2005, D1) states, “On paper, it never makes sense to have a policy with low deductibles or carry collision on an old car.” But the agent notes that raising deductibles and dropping collision coverage can be a tough decision for people with a low income or little savings. Collision insurance is the coverage on a policyholder’s own car for accidents where another driver is not at fault.

a. Suppose that the loss is $4,000 if an old car is in an accident. During the six-month coverage period, the probability that the insured person is found at fault in an accident is . Suppose that the price of the coverage is $150. Should a wealthy

person purchase the coverage? Should a poor person purchase the coverage? Do your answers depend on the policyholder’s degree of risk aversion? Does the policyholder’s degree of risk aversion depend on his or her wealth?

b. The agent advises wealthy people not to purchase insurance to protect against possible small losses. Why?

    Wesfarmers Annual Report 2016
    Learning Objectives: The subject you are studying is vocational. It is designed with the workplace in
    mind. Work integrated assessment provides opportunities for students to link theory and skills learned
    in a subject to a real work context. Students can use these opportunities to develop and practice the
    professional and academic skills they learn about in a subject or through the online environment and
    then be assessed on their capabilities in these simulated authentic environments. Work integrated
    assessment allows students to simulate and situate their learning in an authentic workplace that
    encourages them to explore their knowledge and apply it to practice. Integrating real world, authentic
    assessment tasks allows students to learn about the particular environments and culture of their chosen
    professions, while at the same time absorbing and practicing the skills they need to succeed. Doing
    these tasks can help students develop skills that can help their employability.
    Resources for this task include the 2016 Annual Report for Wesfarmers.
    Your friend Vikram is studying architecture at another University and knows very little about accounting and annual reports. His uncle gave him $50,000 recently to invest. Vikram knows you have begun studying accounting and is considering buying Wesfarmers shares. He has some questions for you.
    Present your answers concisely in a business report format.

    Requirements
    Spreadsheets
    1. For every question requiring a spreadsheet solution, paste into the Word file displaying row and column headings including the spreadsheet normal view and formula view.
    Thus your Word file will provide a complete answer to every question.
    The pasted formula view may need to have adjusted column widths to display formulas correctly. Use portrait orientation wherever possible. The separate submitted Excel file will provide a clear demonstration of correct spreadsheet structures. You may need to break up your report/solution into separate images.
    2. For good spreadsheet design it is very important that you have completely separate data entry and solution/report areas. A good spreadsheet solution format is to key in the question in a structure which allows the solution to be completely formula driven. There should be no data in the report/solution area.
    3. Create all spreadsheets solutions as separate spreadsheets in one workbook. Name the tags at the bottom of the computer screen with the question number, and sub-section as appropriate. See examples in the Spreadsheet Advice PDF in Interact Resources.
    4. Save your workbook with the cursor in cell A1 of the first spreadsheet.
    5. Where appropriate, use the IF function to provide built in checks of balances, net profit/net loss, favourable/unfavourable variances etc.
    6. How can you display negative numbers in brackets? Google the question! Hint. Format / Cells / Number and select Custom. Enter this: #,##0;(#,##0);0.
    7. We have provided spreadsheet examples to guide you in the Spreadsheet Advice PDF in Interact2 Resources – it is important that you study these examples. Also consider using the spreadsheet templates available with your text and other online spreadsheet resources but note that the text templates do not necessarily comply with the subject spreadsheet requirements.
    Solutions to questions should vary in length according to the nature of the question. Solutions to exercises and problem questions should be in a similar form to that demonstrated in the text.
