Answer:
Investment in stock X is worth $21,387.60
Explanation:
Expected Return of the protfolio is calculated:
![Stock.X.return*invest.x + Stock.Y.return*invest.Y + Risk.free*invest.RF](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Stock.X.return%2Ainvest.x%20%2B%20Stock.Y.return%2Ainvest.Y%20%2B%20Risk.free%2Ainvest.RF)
Where:
- Stock X return = 9.7%
- Stock Y Return = 17.7%
- Risk free = 3.8% (investment in Risk free = 18,000/78,000 = 23.08%)
- Investment in X+Y = 1 - Invetment in RF = 1 - 0.2308 = 0.7692
So, replacing the numbers
![0.097*x + 0.177*Y + 0.038*0.2308 = 0.123](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.097%2Ax%20%2B%200.177%2AY%20%2B%200.038%2A0.2308%20%3D%200.123)
Where X+Y = 0.7692, so X = 0.7692-Y
![0.097*(0.7692-Y) + 0.177*Y = 0.123 - 0.0088](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.097%2A%280.7692-Y%29%20%2B%200.177%2AY%20%3D%200.123%20-%200.0088)
Then
![0.0746 - 0.097*Y + 0.177*Y = 0.1142](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.0746%20-%200.097%2AY%20%2B%200.177%2AY%20%3D%200.1142%20)
![0.08*Y = 0.0396](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%200.08%2AY%20%3D%200.0396%20)
So Y = 0.0396/0.08 = 0.495 = 49.5%
X = 0.7692 - 0.495 = 0.2742 = 27.42%
27.42% * 78000 =

Benefit payments can be described as a government payment to specific people in the society who are disadvantaged in one way or the other. Benefit payments can be made to the; unemployed, people with children, the aged, people who are ill and even the poor. Benefit payments is a practice that is anchored in law that aims at protecting the economically vulnerable in the society. There are different types of benefit payments that exist. In this particular question, we will consider UCR payments.
The UCR payments falls under the health and welfare plans, and can be defined as benefit payments that are not scheduled but are based on the average fee charged by all doctors in a given geographical area. A benefit payment that is not scheduled means that it doesn't have a specific amount attached to it, but depends on the location. This is because health services charges vary from one geographical position to the next. One can be offered different medical charges in different locations due to a distinction in geographical area. The same geographical areas however, have an average amount of fee that is specific to that area. In benefit payments, this average amount is what is often payed to the beneficiary.

Answer:
The average cost at a caseload of 25 attempted placements per month is 105.
Explanation:
The total cost function given in the question first correctly stated as follows:
TC = 25Q^1/2 + 2,500 ................ (1)
A caseload of 25 attempted placements implies that:
Q = 25
Substitute Q = 25 into equation (1), we have:
TC = (25 * 25^(1/2)) + 2,500 = 2,625
The average cost (AC) can now be calculated as follows:
AC = TC / Q = 2,625 / 25 = 105
Therefore, the average cost at a caseload of 25 attempted placements per month is 105.
