Let L1 and L2 be two lotteries with the same expected return. Suppose L2 has a larger variance and you are risk averse. Would yo

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

option 2) smaller

As CE is the amount which if the agent gets with certainty, then agent will be indifferent between playing lottery or getting that amount with certainty

So L2 is more risky, & agent is risk averse, so agent will be ready to accept a lower amount with certainty ( as compared to the amount for a safer option : L1)

So CE of L2 will be lower

The marketing manager for Mountain Mist soda needs to decide how many TV spots and magazine ads to run during the next quarter.

spayn [35]

Answer: The LP model is given as :

max: 1.180( 420000 A + 500000 B )

subject to : (a.) 7000 A + 2500 B ≤ 100000

(b.) 7000 A ≤ 70000

(c.) 2500 B ≤ 50000

Explanation:

Let us assume;

A be the no. of T.V spots

B be the no. of magazine spots

Given:

(a.) Mountain Mist earns a profit margin of $1.80 on each case of soda that it sells.

(b.) Each TV spot costs $7000 and is expected to increase sales by 420,000 cases.

(c.) Each magazine ad costs $2500 and is expected to increase sales by 500,000 cases.

∴ The objective function of this model will be given as :

max: 1.180( 420000 A + 500000 B )

(d.) A total of $100,000 may be spent on TV and magazine ads combined.

(e.) Mountain mist wants to spend no more than $70,000 on TV spots and no more than $50,000 on magazine ads.

∴ The subjective function will be :

(a.) 7000 A + 2500 B ≤ 100000

(b.) 7000 A ≤ 70000

(c.) 2500 B ≤ 50000

∴ The LP model is given as :

max: 1.180( 420000 A + 500000 B )

subject to : (a.) 7000 A + 2500 B ≤ 100000

(b.) 7000 A ≤ 70000

(c.) 2500 B ≤ 50000

Your firm has sales of $47,000, current assets of $5,100, current liabilities of $6,200, net fixed assets of $51,500, and a prof

Llana [10]

Answer:

$1,013.50

Explanation:

Projected assets = (Current assets + Fixed assets) * 1.10

Projected assets = ($5,100 + $51,500) * 1.07

Projected assets = $60,562

Projected liabilities = Current liabilities * 1.07 = $6,200 * 1.07 = $6,634

Current equity = Current assets + Fixed assets - Current liabilities = $5,100 + $51,500 - $6,200 = $50,400

Projected increase in retained earnings = Sales * 5% * 1.07 = $47,000 * 5% * 1.07 = $2,514.50

Equity funding need = Projected assets - Projected liabilities - Current equity - Projected increase in retained earnings

Equity funding need = $60,562 - $6,634 - $50,400 - 2,514.50

Equity funding need = $1,013.50

So therefore, the equity funding need is $1,013.50

joseph is eligible for a non taxable life insurance benefit with an annual premium of $400 paid entirely by his employer. Assumi

aleksklad [387]

Based on the fact that the non-taxable life insurance benefit is $400, the amount that Joseph would have to earn is $555.56.

<h3>How much should Joseph earn?</h3>

This can be found as:

= Non-taxable benefit amount / (1 - tax bracket rate)

= 400 / (1 - 28%)

= 400 / 0.72

= $555.56
