Political science

Short Essay (40 points) 

Answer one of the following two essay prompts in an essay form. Your essay should not exceed 750 words (not including bibliography). Please provide a word count. 

–A good essay will make a clear argument. 

–A good essay will then bolster the argument theoretically by providing support (or critique) from relevant course readings. 

–A good essay will also provide support (or critique) of the argument by presenting examples from relevant empirical cases that we covered in class.  

1. Several of our course readings and lectures argue that political institutions affect the prevalence and severity of certain types of disasters. In particular, the effects of democracy and accountability (vs. autocracy and lack of accountability) were debated at several points throughout the semester. Pick two authors (or lectures), one that suggests that democracy is better able to avoid or manage disasters and one that indicates that autocracy is better positioned to deal with such challenges. In your opinion, which one is making the better argument? Why?   

Discuss this debate in the context of our course material. In your essay discuss relevant arguments from two authors (or lectures) that we read for the course and support your thesis with evidence from two relevant empirical examples (either from the lectures, the readings or the podcasts). 

• Are identifiers such as race, gender, indigeneity, or class useful for the analysis of disasters, their causes and their aftermath? If so why, how, and under what

circumstances? Is there any danger in including these issues in our analyses of what went wrong? Are there any downsides for excluding these social cleavages from our investigations? 

Discuss these questions in the context of our course material. In your essay discuss relevant arguments from two authors that we read for the course and support your thesis with evidence from two relevant empirical examples (either from the lectures, the readings or the podcasts).

Assignment 3 Questions: Week 10 to Week 13: – [5 Marks]

Q1: You take $1000 that you held as currency and put it into the banking system. The  

        reserve ratio is equal to 10%.                                                                 [1.5 Marks]

1. Calculate the money multiplier.
2. By how much will increase the total amount of deposits in the banking system?
3. By how much will increase the money supply?

Q2. (Labor Force, Labor Participation Rate and Unemployment Rate).       [1.5 Marks]

1. In Year 1, country A has a labor force of 100, of whom 90 are employed. The remaining 50 people in the country are not in the labor force.

Calculate the employment ratio, the labor participation rate and unemployment rate.

Over the course of the year, 10% of the employed become unemployed, while 20% of the unemployed become employed; 5% of the employed leave the labor force, while 4% of those not in the labor force become employed. The population remains unchanged.

•  Fill in the following table. (Hint: It might be helpful to draw the flow diagram before answering.)

•   Calculate the employment ratio, the labor participation rate and unemployment rate. (Fractions suffice.)

Q3. Assume that a bank has on its asset side reserves of 1000 and loans of 6000 and on

       its liability side deposits of 7000. Assume that the required reserve ratio is 10  

       percent.                                                                                                    [2 Marks]

1)  How much is the bank required to hold as reserves given its deposits of 7000?

ICS 324 – HW 3

Solve the following normalization questions.

1. [4 pts] Consider the relation R = {A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J} and functional dependencies

• {A,B} à {C}
• {A} à {D,E}
• {B} à {F} 
• {F} à {G,H}  
• {D} à {I,J}

What is the key for R? Decompose R into 2NF and then 3NF relations.

• [4 pts] Consider a relation R = {A, B, C, D, E} with the following dependencies.

• {A, B} à {C}
• {C, D} à {E}
• {D, E} à {B}

Is AB a candidate key of R?  What about ABD? Explain your answer.

• [4 pts] Consider the relation R, which has attributes that hold schedules of courses and sections at a university;

R = {Course_no, Sec_no, Offering_dept, Credit_hours, Course_level, Instructor_ssn, Semester, Year, Days_hours, Room_no, No_of_students}.

Suppose that the following functional dependencies hold on R:

• {Course_no} → {Offering_dept, Credit_hours, Course_level}
• {Course_no, Sec_no, Semester, Year} → {Days_hours, Room_no, No_of_students, Instructor_ssn}
• {Room_no, Days_hours, Semester, Year} → {Instructor_ssn, Course_no, Sec_no}

Try to determine which sets of attributes form keys of R. How would you normalize this relation?

• [4 pts] This exercise asks you to convert business statements into dependencies.

Consider the relation DISK_DRIVE (Serial_number, Manufacturer, Model, Batch, Capacity, Retailer). Each tuple in the relation DISK_DRIVE contains information about a disk drive with a unique Serial_number, made by a manufacturer, with a particular model number, released in a certain batch, which has a certain storage capacity and is sold by a certain retailer. For example, the tuple Disk_drive (‘1978619’, ‘WesternDigital’, ‘A2235X’, ‘765234’, 500, ‘CompUSA’) specifies that WesternDigital made a disk drive with serial number 1978619 and model number A2235X, released in batch 765234; it is 500GB and sold by CompUSA. Write each of the following dependencies as an FD:

1. The manufacturer and serial number uniquely identifies the drive.
2. A model number is registered by a manufacturer and therefore can’t be used by another manufacturer.
3. All disk drives in a particular batch are the same model.
4. All disk drives of a certain model of a particular manufacturer have exactly the same capacity.

• [4 pts] Consider the following relation:

CAR_SALE (Car_id, Option_type, Option_listprice, Sale_date, Option_discountedprice)

This relation refers to options installed in cars (e.g., cruise control) that were sold at a dealership, and the list and discounted prices of the options. If

• CarID → Sale_date
• Option_type → Option_listprice
• CarID, Option_type → Option_discountedprice

Argue using the generalized definition of the 3NF that this relation is not in 3NF. Then argue from your knowledge of 2NF, why it is not even in 2NF.

• [4 pts] Consider relation R = {A, B, C, D, E} with the following dependencies.
• {A} → {C}
• {B, D} → {A}
• {D} → {E}

Decompose R into BCNF. In each step, explain which functional dependency you used to
decompose and explain why further decomposition is needed. And also make sure you indicate the keys for each relation.
