ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

c. Parent company total assets equals consolidated total assets

Explanation:

The equity method is a process of treating investment in an associated companies and is usually applied where the investor holds about 50% of the companies stocks and this has a significant influence in the later management.

They are recorded in the balance sheets and are associated with the companies net incomes and investments. If 80% of the investment is accounted for the subsidiary then the parent company total assess will not be equal o the total assets as it involves taxes.

A university officer wants to know the proportion of registered students that spend more than 20 minutes to get to school. He se

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

1) We need a random sample. For this case we assume that the sample selected was obtained using the simple random sampling method.

2) We need to satisfy the following inequalities:

$n\hat p =25*0.52= 13 \geq 10$

$n(1-\hat p) = 25*(1-0.52) =12 \geq 10$

So then we satisfy this condition

3) 10% condition. For this case we assume that the random sample selected n represent less than 10% of the population size N . And for this case we can assume this condition.

So then since all the conditions are satisfied we can conclude that we can apply the normal approximation given by:

$p \sim N (\hat p, \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}})$

So then the answer for this case would be:

a. Yes.

Explanation:

For this case we assume that the question is: If in the experiment described we can use the normal approximation for the proportion of interest.

For this case we have a sample of n =25

And we are interested in the proportion of registered students that spend more than 20 minutes to get to school.

X = 13 represent the number of students in the sample selected that have a time more than 20 min.

And then the estimated proportion of interest would be:

$\hat p = \frac{X}{n}= \frac{13}{25}= 0.52$

And we want to check if we can use the normal approximation given by:

$p \sim N (\hat p, \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}})$

So in order to do this approximation we need to satisfy some conditions listed below:

1) We need a random sample. For this case we assume that the sample selected was obtained using the simple random sampling method.

2) We need to satisfy the following inequalities:

$n\hat p =25*0.52= 13 \geq 10$

$n(1-\hat p) = 25*(1-0.52) =12 \geq 10$

So then we satisfy this condition:

3) 10% condition. For this case we assume that the random sample selected n represent less than 10% of the population size N . And for this case we can assume this condition.

So then since all the conditions are satisfied we can conclude that we can apply the normal approximation given by:

$p \sim N (\hat p, \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}})$

So then the answer for this case would be:

a. Yes.

Leto [7]

Answer: option b

Explanation: In simple words, collinearity refers to the condition under which some of the Independent variables in the model are related to each other. This international between independents variables can result into incorrect results while fitting the model.

Therefore, collinearity causes problem as the analyst prepares a model on the basis that there will be two inputs one is dependent another is independent but due to this phenomenon the expected input structure collides.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the economist should be concerned with col linearity.
