Answer:
The correct answer is: 15 points on the History exam.
Explanation:
Opportunity Cost is what a person sacrifices when they choose one option over another. It is calculating by subtracting the return of the best forgone option with the return of the chosen option. The outcome could be beneficial or prejudicial, depending on the case.
In the example (<u>refer to the attached table</u>), if the student chooses to score 94 in the economics exam then the student will get 76 in the History test. Thus, The opportunity cost of getting 94 instead of 77 in the Economics test, implies getting 76 instead of 91 in the History exam. It implies:
- Opportunity cost of the History exam = 91-76
- Opportunity cost of the History exam = 15
<em>The opportunity cost of scoring 94 on the Economics exam rather than a 77 is 15 points on the History test.</em>
Answer:
preferred habitat
Explanation:
According to the preferred habitat theory, if the expected returns from investment of a particular investment maturity is large enough, investors would shift from their preferred maturities.
In this question, there is a shift from the preferred maturity (short-term securities) to a long-term securities when interest rate changes
The pure expectations theory assumes that bonds of any maturity are perfect substitutes for each other. For example, if an investor buys a 10 year bond and holds it for 1 year, the return is the same as buying a 1 year bond. The theory also assumes that risk premium does not exist and a security only earns its risk free rate
Liquidity premium theory states that risk premium increases with the maturity of a bond. The theory predicts that the yield curve is upward sloping due to liquidity premium
According to the segmented market theory, each bond maturity segment can be thought of as a segment market in which yield are a function of the demand and supply for funds in that maturity.

Answer:
B) $56,130
Explanation:
The cash flow statement shows how the company's operating, investing and financing activities affect the flow of cash by generation or use.
The investing activities section is where the purchase of fixed assets and the amount received for the disposal of these assets are accounted for.
Given that a gain was realized and the book value of the asset was given, the amount received for the disposal
= $5,278 + $50,852
= $56,130
This is the amount that will be reported in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows as an inflow.
