14). During the early 1700’s, a small group of pacifist Protestants fled Germany to avoid religious persecution. This group, the Dunkers, settled in the farmland of eastern Pennsylvania and has been relatively isolated from other groups of people living in the area (they have strict rules about marriage outside of the group). The original group was comprised of 50 families.

The current Dunker population is genetically distinct from the rest of the United States (and modern Germany) in terms of the ABO blood group system. In the Dunker population, the frequency of the IA allele is .30 (30%) and the frequency of the O blood type is .16 (16%). In the general US and German population the frequency of the IA allele is .40 and the frequency of the O blood type is .25 (25%).

a). What are the frequencies of the IB and i alleles in both populations? Show your work.

b). Use your knowledge of the founder effect to explain the differences in ABO blood group allele frequencies between the 2 populations and indicate whether or not this is an example of adaptive evolution.

Happy Valley Prison, is a Federal Correctional Institution,housing low-security inmates. One way for inmates to earn “specialprivileges” is for them to work in the prison’s license platemanufacturing facility.

Happy Valley uses standard costing, and allocates overhead basedon the number of plates produced. Happy Valley uses absorptioncosting and weighted average. Any estimation error is closed tocost of goods sold at the end of each month.

At the start of March, Happy Valley has no WIP, and finishedgood inventory of 2000 plates. Each plate in beginning inventoryhas $2 of variable cost and $1 of fixed overhead.

During March, Happy Valley expects to produce 1000 plates andhas expected costs of $2000 (variable costs) and $1300 (fixedoverhead). All of these expectations are met, except that March’sfixed overhead costs are actually $1900. At the end of March, HappyValley has 1500 units in finished goods inventory and no WIP.

A) What will be the value of Happy Valley’s finishedgoods inventory at the end of March? What would be the value ifHappy Valley used variable costing instead?

B) How much will be recorded as cost of goods sold onHappy Valley’s income statement for March? How much would berecorded if Happy Valley used variable costinginstead?

C) John is in charge of production, and gets todetermine the actual number of plates produced in June. He mustannounce this in advance (so that planned production will equalactual production), and he has no control over any other numbers.Would it be easier to John to increase June’s gross margin perplate sold under absorption costing system or under a variablecosting system? Briefly explain.

D) Mary is in charge of sales, and can determine theactual number of plates sold in June (by accelerating sales fromJuly or deferring sales to July). Would it be easier for Mary toincrease June’s gross margin per plate sold under an absorptioncosting system or under a variable costing system? Brieflyexplain.
