Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Probability distribution are statistical function that shows all the possible outcomes of a random variable within a given range of values.
a) The mean (
) of a probability distribution of a discrete random variable is:
![\bar x=\Sigma\ [xP(x)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbar%20x%3D%5CSigma%5C%20%5BxP%28x%29%5D)
= (0 * 0.8) + (1 * 0.15) + (2 * 0.04) + (3 * 0.01) = 0.26
b) The standard deviation (σ) of a probability distribution of a discrete random variable is:
![\sigma=\sqrt{ \Sigma\ [(x-\bar x)^2*P(x)]}\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{(0-0.26)^2*0.8+(1-0.26)^2*0.15+(2-0.26)^2*0.04+(3-0.26)^2*0.01} \\\\\sigma=0.577](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csigma%3D%5Csqrt%7B%20%5CSigma%5C%20%5B%28x-%5Cbar%20x%29%5E2%2AP%28x%29%5D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Csigma%3D%5Csqrt%7B%280-0.26%29%5E2%2A0.8%2B%281-0.26%29%5E2%2A0.15%2B%282-0.26%29%5E2%2A0.04%2B%283-0.26%29%5E2%2A0.01%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Csigma%3D0.577)
Answer:
(c). no longer satisfies a sufficient number of customers
Explanation:
Product deletion refers to removal or discontinuance of a product from the product line when such a product has been consistently incurring losses since a number of years and it's further continuation would adversely affect the other products and profitability.
A product is usually deleted from the product line on the grounds of it's failure in satisfying a sufficient number of customers.
Hence, the correct option is (c). no longer satisfies a sufficient number of customers.
C. The third party is a desperate business. If it sees a major flaw from the third party it could possibly take action but this isn't as much of a worry as one would think.
Answer:
The portfolio's alpha is - 0.15%
Explanation:
For computing the portfolio's alpha, first, we have to compute the expected rate of return. The formula is shown below:
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (realized rate of return - free rate of return)
= 7% + 1.15 × (12% - 7%)
= 7% + 1.15 × 5%
= 7% + 5.75%
= 12.75%
Now the portfolio alpha equal to
= Expected rate of return - portfolio realized rate of return
= 12.75% - 12.6%
= - 0.15%
Answer:
The correct answer is Option B.
Explanation:
Based on IAS 10 Events after the Reporting Period, subsequent events can be an adjusting event or non-adjusting event. If it is an adjusting event, it means an event after the reporting date before the audited financial statements are signed that provides further evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date. However, non-adjusting events are events after the reporting date that are indicative of a condition that arose after the reporting date, this requires disclosure in the financial statements while for adjusting events, the financial statements are adjusted for condition that arose after the reporting date.
The declaration of the customer as bankrupt is an adjusting event since it affects the receivable collection, hence the need to adjust it as uncollectible,
