Answer:
Choosing alternative B would increase net income by $17,100
Explanation:
The analysis showing the incremental revenues,costs and net income of alternative A and B is shown below:
Alternative A Alternative B Difference between A&B
Revenues $146,100 $185,900 $39800
Costs ($104,400) ($127,100) ($22700
)
Net income $41,700 $58,800 $17,100
Alternative B records a higher net income compared to Alternative A,hence choosing alternative B would increase net income by $17,100

The Jones Family has an annual consumer spending of $82,000. This is calculated using this formula: C = A +MD where C is the consumer spending, A is the autonomous consumption spending, M is the marginal propensity to consume, and D is the disposable income. Thus, the calculation is C = $10,000 + (0.8)($90,000). Giving C a value of $82,000.
Answer:
B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.
Explanation:
Variance formula = sum of (probability x (r - mean)^2)
r= expected return
if the expected return would be same for each economic state then the mean would equal to expected return which ultimately will give variance zero ( as r-mean would be 0).
Hence the correct option is B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.
