Answer:

Geometric Average return = 7.83%

Explanation:

First we need to find the missing value of data using Arithmetic mean formula

Arithmetic Mean = Sum of value / No of values

8.8% = Sum of Values / 4

Sum of Values = 8.8% x 4

Sum Values = 35.2%

Using Sum of Values we minus the remaining values in order to get the missing value of the data.

35.20% - 16.3% - 10.2%-(14.1%) = 22.80%

In order to get Geometric mean value we use geometric mean formula

G.M = 4 Sqrt(16.3% x 10.2% x -14.1% + 22.80%)

Geometric Mean = 7.83%

Verizon [17]

Answer: Sarah failed to evaluate a potential ethical issue.

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Sarah who is the controller of a large beverage supplier, supervises two employees and that her boss, Vladimir, told her to increase the company's inventory balance for an amount that is material to the financial statements by crediting several small "miscellaneous" expense accounts.

We are further told that Sarah does not know the reason behind this but told one of her staff to make them because she has been instructed to do so.

We can see that Sarah failed to evaluate a potential ethical issue. She didn't evaluate the effect of what she is doing. In this case, what her boss told her to do could be a case of fraud and she just obliged without asking questions which will put her conscience at ease in case anything happens but the fact that she just did it without asking questions or thinking if what she has done is morally right or wrong, it shows that Sarah failed to evaluate a potential ethical issue.

Rick deposited $3,100 into an account 13 years ago for an emergency fund. Today, that account is worth $5,280. What annual rate
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

4.18%

Explanation:

The formula for used for this calculation is given as

Future value = Present( Initial) value  (1 + r)ⁿ

Where n = number of years of the investment = 13 years

Future value  (Amount of the investment after 13 years)= $5,280

Present ( Initial) value (Amount of the investment before 13 years) =  $3,100

r = rate of return

The formula for r is derived as:

r = (Future value/ Present (initial) value)¹/ⁿ- 1

r = ($5,280/$3,100)¹/¹³ - 1

r = 1.0418139573 - 1

r = 0.0418139573

r is always in percentage format

r = 0.0418139573 × 100

r= 4.18139573%

Approximately, the rate of return annually for 13 years  = 4.18%
