I think he felt that skin was attributable to climate and did not affect one's intelligence, character and personality so he was not a racist. While areas of the world like Latinamerica and Africa for example have many people with brown or black skin, they are every much as capable as people from more northern climates with white skin. The fact that, for example the Latin american areas had advanced civilizations like the Incas and Aztecs, the former with 1000's of kilometers of roads tying their empires together and the Aztecs with their monumental temples and both with advanced agriculture based on astronomical observations shows this is the case.
Answer: 88.89 or 89
Explanation: Futures contract refers to a legal binding which obligates a buyer and seller to transact about a commodity, good, security or services at a predetermined price but goods are delivered or paid for in the future.
Given the following ;
Portfolio value(p) = $20million
Portfolio Beta (b) = 1.2
Index price (i) = 1080
Multiplier = 250
Future value(A) = index price × multiplier
Future value(A) = 1080 × 250 = 270000
Number of contracts (N) = (portfolio value × portfolio Beta) ÷ future value
N = ($20,000,000×1.2)÷270000
N = 24000000 ÷×270000
N = 88.8888=88.89
N = 89 (NEAREST whole number)

Answer:
a) 28%
b) 56%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Operating profit margin = 7%
Asset turnover ratio = 4
Now,
a) ROA = Profit margin × Asset turnover ratio
= 7% × 4
= 28%
b) Given:
Debt-equity ratio = 1
Interest payments = $8,200
Taxes = $8,200
EBIT = $21,000
Now,
Total assets = Net income ÷ ROA
Also,
Net income = EBIT - tax - interest
= $21,000 - $8,200 - $8,200
= $4,600
Thus,
Total assets = $4,600 ÷ 28%
= $16428.57
also,
Total assets = Debt + Equity
or
Total assets = Equity × (
)
or
$16428.57 = Equity × ( 1 + 1 )
or
=> Equity = $8214.28
Therefore,
ROE = Net income ÷ Equity
= $4,600 ÷ $8214.28
= 56%
