Richard has volunteered to help with his college's telefund. His sales experience leads him to
believe that he has a 65% chance of getting the person he calls to donate. What is the probability
that his first donation will be among the 4th or 5th calls? (Round to nearest ten thousandth)
Solution
P = 0.35 * 0.35 * 0.35 * 0.65 + 0.35 * 0.35 * 0.35 * 0.35 * 0.65 = 0.0376, rounding
it = 0.038

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.
