Answer:

5.65%

Explanation:

Last year a stock of $78.00 was bought

During the period of one year $2.70 was received in dividend and inflation averaged 3.2%

Today the shares was sold for $82.20

The first step is to calculate the nominal return

= ($82.20-$78.00+$2.70)/$78.00

= 6.9/78

= 0.0885×100

= 8.85%

Therefore, the approximate real rate can be calculated as follows

= 8.85%-3.2%

= 5.65%

Hence the approximate real rate of return on this investment is 5.65%

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.
