1 answer:

8 0

According to conventional wisdom regarding asset allocation by age, you should hold a proportion of stocks equal to 100 minus your age. Therefore, if you are 40 years old, 60% of your portfolio should consist of equity. Criteria might be better changed to 110 minus your age or 120 minus your age because life expectancy increasing.

By deducting your present age from 100, you can utilize rule of thumb to determine your asset allocation. It implies that as you get older, you should shift away from equity funds and toward debt funds and fixed income assets in your asset allocation.

Vika [28.1K]

The complete question is as follows:

The admission directory of Big City University has a novel idea. He proposed using the IQ scores of current students as a marketing tool. The university agrees to provide him with enough money to administer IQ tests to 50 students. So the director gives the IQ test to an SRS of 50 of the university’s 5000 freshman. The mean IQ score for the sample is xbar=112. The IQ test he administered is known to have a σ of 15. What is the 95% Confidence Interval about the mean? What can the director say about the mean score of the population of all 5000 freshman?

Answer: The 95% confidence interval about the mean is $Confidence interval = 107.84 \leq \mu \leq 116.16$ .

The director can say that he is 95% confident that the mean IQ score of the 5000 freshmen lies between 107.84 and 116.16.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Since the population standard deviation of the IQ test is known, we can use the Z scores to find the confidence interval.

The formula for the confidence interval about the mean is:

$Confidence interval = \overline{X}\pm Z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In the equation above, X bar is known as the point estimate and the second term is known as Margin of Error.

The Critical Value of Z at the 95% confidence level is 1.96.

Substituting the values in the question in the equation above we have,

$Confidence interval = \112\pm 1.96*\frac{15}{\sqrt{50}}$

$Confidence interval = \112\pm 4.157787873}$

$Confidence interval = 107.8422121 \leq \mu \leq 116.1577879$

C.Cash Dr. $18, Food Revenue Cr. $18

D. Cash Cr. $18, Food Revenue Cr. $18

and the correct answer is C.Cash Dr. $18, Food Revenue Cr. $18

Explanation:

the answer is simple. once they implement the accounting system, all the transaction will have at least a double entry.

when a cash sale is made for $18, this is a revenue stream for the business, while the cash balance of the business increases as well. Revenue account is an income and an increase in income is treated as increase in credit while the cash balance is an asset, and the increase of the asset is treated as a debit.

if you look at options A, B and D, all of these transactions are either mixed up or have both credits or debits which is wrong, because of this, only the answer C is correct.

Expected return is calculated as:

= Risk free return + Beta ( Market risk premium)

10.8% = 5% + (1.22 × Market risk premium)

10.8% - 5% = 1.22market risk premium
