FWIW, and I'm late for this party, this statement I just wrote in my notes is the key factor, I believe, in solving the HW problem
13.2 Immediate Address Mode: Operand = A; 13.21 Most immediate form 13.22 Used to define constants, set initial values of vairables 13.23 Typically numbers are assigned in Two's Compliment Form 13.24 When loaded into a data register, the signed bit is moved to the extreme left of the word size. ==> 13.25 In some cases, the immediate binary value is interpreted as an unsigned nonnegative integer.
