Answer:

option a) 5 billion

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

GDP = $20 billion

Cost of goods and services = $3 billion

Tax collected = $6 billion

Transfer payments to households = $2 billion

Private saving in Growpaw = $4 billion

Now,

Disposable income = GDP - taxes + transfer payments

=$20 billion - $6 billion + $2 billion

= $16 billion

Consumption = Disposable income - Savings

= $16 billion - $4 billion

= $12 billion

Thus,

Investment = GDP - consumption - government purchases

= $20 billion - $12 billion - $3 billion

= $5 billion

Hence,

the correct answer is option a) 5 billion

Portfolio AB has half of its funds invested in Stock A and half in Stock B. Portfolio ABC has one third of its funds invested in
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

a) Portfolio ABC's expected return is 10.66667%.

Explanation:

Some information is missing:

Stock                Expected         Standard             Beta

                         return              deviation

A                            10%                 20%                 1.0

B                            10%                  10%                 1.0

C                            12%                  12%                 1.4

The expected return or portfolio AB = (1/2 x 10%) + (1/2 x 10%) = 10% (it is the same as the required rate for stock A or B)

The expected return or portfolio ABC = (weight of stock A x expected return of stock A) +  (weight of stock B x expected return of stock B) + (weight of stock C x expected return of stock C) = (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 12%) = 3.333% + 3.333% + 4% = 10.667% <u>THIS IS CORRECT</u>

Options B, C, D and E are wrong.

An investment has an expected return of 11 percent per year with a standard deviation of 26 percent. Assuming that the returns o
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

P(Z

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the expected return, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(11,26)  

Where \mu=11 and \sigma=26

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

P(Z
