Answer:
Group of choices:
A. Globalization
B. Economic transformation
C. Deregulation
D. Privatization
The correct answer is D. Privatization.
Explanation:
Privatization is an existing mechanism in the economy through which the government makes an industry or an activity no longer part of the public sphere, being transferred or transferred from the State to private companies or organizations.
The concept of privatization is often related to tools to improve competition, which help companies to improve their cost structure, allowing products to be of higher quality and at lower prices, favoring the consumer.
Since privatization reduces state participation in the economy, it is identified with capitalist policies. This tool is opposed to nationalization.
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the stock’s expected return and standard deviation of returns? E(R) = 8.5% ; σ = 22.70%; mean = $7.50; standard deviation = $2.50
State Prob E(R)
Boom 10% 40%
Normal 60% 20%
Recession
30% - 25%
Answer:
The expected return of the stock E(R) is 8.5%.
The standard deviation of the returns is 22.7%
Explanation:
<u>Expected return</u>
The expected return of the stock can be calculated by multiplying the stock's expected return E(R) in each state of economy by the probability of that state.
The expected return E(R) = (0.4 * 0.1) + (0.2 * 0.6) + (-0.25 * 0.3)
The expected return E(R) = 0.04 + 0.12 -0.075 = 0.085 or 8.5%
<u>Standard Deviation of returns</u>
The standard deviation is a measure of total risk. It measures the volatility of the stock's expected return. The standard deviation (SD) of a stock's return can be calculated by using the following formula:
SD = √(rA - E(R))² * (pA) + (rB - E(R))² * (pB) + ... + (rN - E(R))² * (pN)
Where,
- rA, rB to rN is the return under event A, B to N.
- pA, pB to pN is the probability of these events to occur
- E(R) is the expected return of the stock
Here, the events are the state of economy.
So, SD = √(0.4 - 0.085)² * (0.1) + (0.2 - 0.085)² * (0.6) + (-0.25 - 0.085)² * (0.3)
SD = 0.22699 or 22.699% rounded off to 22.70%
A) Direct labor hrs for car wheels = estimated wheels *direct labor per wheel
40,000 *1hr = 40,000
Direct labor hrs for Truck
10,000 * 3hr= 30,000
total direct labor hrs 40,000+30,000 = 70,000 hrs
Overhead rate is total est oh cost/ total direct labor hrs
770,000/70,000= 11.00
B) Car truck wheels 40,000*11 =440,000
Truck wheels 10,000*11=110,000
Answer:
1. This is true.
The Germans will pay a higher price for tuna because the tariff will increase the price of imported tuna and the reduction in completion with the local producers will lead to higher prices as the local producers take up their price.
2. This is true.
German producers no longer have to compete as much with imported tuna which was cheaper. They will therefore be able to raise their prices.
3. This statement is false.
The world price of Tuna DOES NOT increase because the tariff is only applicable in Germany. Other parts of the world will trade tuna as before. This is what is assumed.
4. This statement is true.
If Vietnam was exporting tuna to Germany, they will become worse off because they will see a decline in demand for their tuna on account of the tariffs making the tuna more expensive.
5. This is false.
Vietnamese tuna consumers will still pay the same price to get tuna because Vietnam produces the tuna. It is Vietnam's producers that will suffer not the consumers.
