An article in a 2006 issue of Journal of Behavioral Decision Making reports on a study involving 47 undergraduate students in a

class at Harvard. All of the participants were given $50, but some (chosen at random) were told that this was a "tuition rebate," while the others were told that this was "bonus income." After one week, the students were contacted again and asked how much of the $50 they had spent and how much they had saved. Those in the "rebate" group had spent an average of $22.04, while those in the "bonus" group had spent an average of $9.55. If the difference in average spending amounts between the two groups is determined to be statistically significant, would it be legitimate to draw a cause-and-effect conclusion between what the money was called and how much was spent

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

If the difference in average spending amounts between the two groups is determined to be statistically significant, it would be legitimate to draw such a conclusion.

Why?

Those who were told that it was a Tuition rebate, a reward of sorts, had spent on average, $22.04 whilst those who thought it was simply bonus income had spent significantly less at $9.55.

This means that indeed there is a CAUSE and EFFECT conclusion to be drawn between what the money was called and how much was spent because it is clear that when called a tuition rebate, more of it is spent as opposed to it being called a Bonus income.

<span>Foreign firms should seek this sorts of alliances, because making them is a good way to obtain knowledge of local markets; contrast this to a foreign firm attempting to start up a branch on their own, perhaps in the form of a greenfield venture. They would potentially have to figure out local market conditions from scratch, whereas a local company would potentially have years of successful experience and knowledge already at their fingertips.</span>

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In business accounting, the inventory conversion period / payables deferral period and average collection period use different inputs due to the fact that Inventory and accounts payable are carried at cost on the balance sheet, whereas accounts receivable are recorded at the price at which goods are sold. Therefore the accounts receivable (average collection period) are attached and dependent on the specific/changing price of the goods sold.

Virty [35]

Answer:

Letter A is correct.<u> </u><em><u>Unsystematic</u></em><em> </em>risk.

Explanation:

Unlike systematic risk, which is an inherent market risk, unsystematic risk is inherent in a specific sector or company.

The case in point concerns the investment of former AlphaEnergy employees, which is a unsystematic risk, as the investment risk in single-company shares includes regulatory changes, management changes, loss of market due to competition and withdrawal of the product from the market.

To reduce this type of risk, investors should seek diversification in their stock portfolio.
