Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The production possibility frontier shows the maximum possible bundles or combinations of two goods that can be produced using the given resources completely.

All the points on and below the frontier are attainable. The points above the frontier are unattainable as they need more resources.

The points below the frontier though attainable are inefficient, this is because all the resources are not being used.

So we can say that the production possibility curve is a frontier between a combination of two goods that are attainable and that are not attainable.

Answer:

$845,207.3

Explanation:

Calculation for what dollar amount would DeGraw actually receive after it exchanged yen for U.S. dollars

First step is to calculate the exchange rate of 1 yen for 140.0 yen per dollar and 154.4 yen

Exchange rate of 1 Yen = $1 /140

Exchange rate of 1 Yen= $0.007142858

Exchange rate of 1 Yen = $1 / 154.4

Exchange rate of 1 Yen= $0.006476684

Now since the price for the item bought was 130,500,000 Yen which means that the exchange rate for 1 Yen will be $0.006476684

Now let calculate the dollar amount

Dollar amount=(130,500,000 *$0.006476684) / 1

Dollar amount= $845,207.3

Therefore the dollar amount that DeGraw would actually receive after it exchanged yen for U.S. dollars is $845,207.3

Answer:

The correct answer is: C. larger decrease in total risk.

Explanation:

The risk of an investment portfolio refers to the possibilities of obtaining the return, profit or profit you expect. Every investment involves a risk, and the more you can earn, the greater the risk. If you put your money on a fixed term, the risk is minimal, but it hardly gives you an interest even less than inflation. If you invest in the forex market, for example, you can earn a lot of money, but also the risk (that you do not achieve and even that you lose what you invested) is much greater. Every investor knows that he must assume some risk, because it is something inherent in the investment.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The shareholders equity=-$156, this means that the liabilities outweigh the assets by $156.

Explanation:

The shareholder's equity can be defined as the net value of a company. It basically is the amount that shareholders would receive if all the company's assets were liquidated and all of the company's debt also paid back. The shareholder's equity is usually found on the company's balance sheet and can be used as a financial measure to determine the company's financial status. The shareholder's equity is determined from subtracting the company's totals liabilities from its total assets. This can be expressed in the formula below;

E=A-L....equation 1

where;

E=shareholder's equity

A=total assets

L=total liabilities

The total assets represents everything that has some economic value to the company. A liability is an obligation to something or anything of economic value that the company owes. In our case, the company has an obligation to pay it's creditors $6,460 at the end of they year. This is a liability.

Use equation 1 above to solve;

E=unknown, to be determined

A=$6,304

L=$6,460

replacing;

E=(6,304-6,460)=-$156

The shareholders equity=-$156, this means that the liabilities outweigh the assets by $156.
