Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": True.

Explanation:

Managers are in constant search of maximizing profits and minimizing costs. While talking about larger entities where suppliers take a key role for the business, high-rank executives look for different entities from where their supplies can be obtained without affecting the quality of their output but minimizing the expenses of the firm.

Answer:

Authority - Responsibility Balance & Incentive Development.

Explanation:

Authority refers to the power to command, give orders to somebody. And enjoying the position of having right to get it obeyed.

Responsibility refers to being in a position of accountability, answerability for an allocated task or job & its performance.

For Eg : A manager  given responsibility to complete a task of production targets achievement, is also given authority to command the entire staff at the production site.

Joe had problem while working for someone else that :- he had responsibility to complete employers allocated task, but may be not given enough authority to do so, thats why he felt he is being 'commanded by, working for' someone else. Also, he doesn't owe the rewards of his acts, so lacks incentive.

Being an entrepreneur will entitle him with managerial responsibilities, but at the same time will also give him higher authority to take his own independent decisions. And, he is himself responsible for his acts, will bear losses or enjoy profits for himself. So, it also incentivises him to work for himself.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

$15.43

Explanation:

Following actions are required for triangular arbitrage:

Available: $ 10,000

Buy sterling pound @ 1 $ = 1.62 pounds and receive pounds 6172.84 upon conversion.

Now, sell these pounds and purchase NZ $ at the rate :

1 pound = NZ $ 2.95 and receive NZ$ 18209.87

Now, reconvert the above proceeds into US $ at the rate

1 NZ $ = $0.55 i.e sell NZ $ at this rate and receive US $ 10,015.4285

Hence profit from implementing triangular arbitrage is $10,015.43 - $10,000

= $15.43

Arbitrage refers to the prospect of earning a profit by utilizing the mispricing in two different financial markets. An arbitrageur never uses his own funds and always borrows.

Arbitrage works only in the scenario wherein the interest rate purchase parity (IRPT) does not hold good.

The strategy of arbitrage is best explained as "Buy at low price and sell at a high price".

If you ignore a margin call, your broker:
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": may sell some of your securities to repay the margin loan.

Explanation:

A Margin Call is issued when the equity in a margin account falls below a certain level. In the U.S. this level is set by the Federal Reserve (Fed) Board "Regulation T". Many brokers have their margin requirements known as "house requirements" usually with maintenance levels of 30 to 40%.

When a margin account falls below the margin limit and the trader ignores this, the broker can sell some of the securities of the trader to cover the margin losses.
