Answer:
Expected rate of return on stock is 14.86%
Explanation:
The expected rate of return of a stock is the mean return that is expected to be earned by the stock considering the different scenarios that can occur, the return in these scenarios and the probability of the occurrence of these scenarios. The formula for expected rate of return of stock is,
rE = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN
Where,
- pA, pB, ... represents the probability that scenario A, B and so on will occur or the probability of each scenario
- rA, rB, ... represents the return in scenario A, B and so on
rE = 0.21 * 0.2 + 0.72 * 0.15 + 0.07 * -0.02
rE = 0.1486 or 14.86%
Answer: Gathering information
Explanation: Ethical decision making involves evaluating and choosing among different options in a way that is consistent with ethical principles. The best way to do this is to eliminate the unethical choices and choose the best alternative option.

Professor Thompson has decided to wait until the class period ends, take both tests and compare their answers. After that she will decide what to do about the situation. Professor Thompson has thus entered the first step, which is to gather information. She doesn't want to jump to conclusions without gathering all the facts, so she is going to acquire as much info as she can about the situation before continuing.

Answer:
A. 15 units
B. $130
Explanation:
In order to solve this, we need to use the profit maximization condition for monopoly.
MR = MC will give us the optimal quantity and price for the monopolist.
The consumer's demand for the product is:
Qd = 80 - 0.5P
Therefore, we have:
P = (80 / 0.5) - (Qd / 0.5)
P = 160 - 2Qd
Recall that, Total Revenue:
TR = P * Q
So, in this case TR = 160Q - 2Q^2
MR = d(TR) / dQ = 160 - 4Q
Now, MR = MC
160 - 4Q = 100
4Q = 160 - 100
4Q = 60
Q = 60 / 4
Q = 15 units.
Now, P =160 - 2Q
P = 160 - 2(15)
P = 160 - 30 = 130
The optimal number of units to be placed in a package will therefore be 15 units while the firm should charge $130 for this package.
Answer:
Required 1.
Land = $163,215
Land improvements = $65,286
Buildings = $97,929
Required 2.
Land $163,215 (debit)
Land improvements $65,286 (credit)
Buildings $97,929 (credit)
Cash $310,000 (credit)
Explanation:
Allocation of the purchase cost must be made on the bases appraisal value.
Total Appraisal Value = $215,000 + $86,000 + $129,000
= $430,000
Land = $215,000 / $430,000 × $326,430
= $163,215
Land improvements = $86,000 / $430,000 × $326,430
= $65,286
Buildings = $129,000 / $430,000 × $326,430
= $97,929
