Answer:

Ans. The expected rate of return on the Inferior Goods Co. stock is 5.90%

Explanation:

Hi, you just have to multiply the expected earnings by the probability of occurance of a certain event and then add up all the products. Here is the information all organized to be processed.

Item                  Prob Earn

Booming           20% -6%

Normal           55% 7%

Recession   25% 13%

Ok, now let´s calculate the expected rate of return.

ExpectedReturn=(0.2*(-0.06))+(0.55*0.07)+(0.25*0.13)

ExpectedReturn=-0.012+0.039+0.033=0.059

So the expected rate of return of the stock is 5.90%

Best of luck.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

That the car wash was not liable to the plaintiff because the car wash employees had no notice they were taking responsibility for so much jewelry.

Explanation:

The case of Ziva Jewelry Inc., v. Car Wash Headquarters Inc involved a salesperson Stewart who locked jewellery in his car and took it to the car wash.

He did not disclose that there was expensive jewelry in the car.

The attendant finished washing the car and signalled to Stewart that his car was ready and walked away from the car.

Before Stewart could pay the bill someone had taken the car. Although the police recovered the car the jewellery was stolen.

Zeva Jewellry filed a motion against the car wash that they did not excercise due care in returning the vehicle.

In this instance the car wash was not liable because Stewart did not disclose there was expensive jewelry in the car.

Also the attendant had finished with his car and informed him of this. So it was out of their care when the car theft occured
