Answer: C) Price-earnings ratio
Explanation:
The Price - earnings ratio is used to calculate the company's share price to its earnings per share. It uses the market value of the stock and thus has the least correlation to the actual inner workings of the company.
The Current and Acid test ratios can be used to calculate if the company is able to cover its current liabilities given its current assets and its most liquid current assets respectively. The Times Interest ratio shows if the company is able to pay its debt payments with the funds available.
The odd one out is therefore the Price-Earnings ratio.
Answer: The strength of a tendency to act in a certain way depends on the strength of our expectation of a given outcome and its attractiveness
Explanation:
The Expectancy Theory defines the efforts of individuals at work. It suggests that people only work as hard as they think is needed for them to get a certain reward or benefit. This is why when there is just a basic salary, employees are not very hard-working but if a car is thrown in as a bonus for the employee of the year, they really put in work.
It therefore shows that the strength to act in a certain way is based on how an individual believes they will be compensated and if that compensation is worth it.

From the question, we are informed that a customer buys $100,000 of 30 year corporate bonds with 20 years remaining to maturity at 95 and that the customer elects not to accrete the discount annually.
At maturity, the customer will have no capital gain or loss. This is because, in this case, the bond has already been held to maturity and discount have therefore been accreted. There won't be capital loss or gain since the bond will noe to redeem at par.
