For a survey, a company decided to call 7 out of every 5000 people. how many people should be called in a town of 78000 people?

1 answer:

4 0

This is an easy one!

7:5000 :: x:78000

(7)x(78000) = 5000x

(7 x 78000)/5000 = x

109.2 = x

Since they cannot call 0.2 people, we have to round it! So, 109 people!

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

b. 5.0%

Explanation:

For this question, we use the Capital Asset Pricing model (CAPM) formula that is shown below:

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

where,

The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium

So, for stock A, the market risk premium is

10% = 5% + 1.0 × market risk premium

10 - 5% = 1.0 × market risk premium

5% ÷ 1.0 = market risk premium

So, the market risk premium is 5.0%

For most normal goods the income effect and the substitution effect work in the same direction; so when the price of a good fall

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions and income effect is dominant.

Explanation:

In case of a normal good, both the income effect as well as substitution effect work in the same direction. A fall in the price of a product will increase the purchasing power of the consumer so its quantity demanded will increase.

The consumers will also prefer the cheaper good so the substitution effect will cause the quantity demanded to increase.

In case of an inferior good, however, income elasticity is negative. The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions.

A price decrease in the case of an inferior good will increase the real income and purchasing power of the consumer. This will cause the quantity demanded of the inferior good to decline as the consumer will prefer a substitute normal good.

Alchen [17]

Indicators that the local currency is also the functional currency include all of the following except the parent typically provides the financing or provides a guarantee.

A functional currency is one that is utilized in the main economic setting in which a company conducts business. This is the setting in which an entity generates and spends money most frequently. When defining the functional currency of an entity, the following key considerations should be taken into account:

The principal currency influencing retail prices (usually the currency in which prices are denominated and settled).

The money of the nation whose laws and competition have the biggest impact on retail pricing.

The principal currency affecting labor expenses and other costs of goods sold (usually the currency in which prices are denominated and settled).

The currency in which an entity keeps its operating receipts and the currency in which debt and equity instruments are issued are less important deciding factors.
