Answer:
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent
Explanation:
To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,
r = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN
Where,
- pA, pB, ... represents the probability of state occurrence
- rA, rB, ... represents return A, return B and so on under each state
r = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.4 * 0.12 + 0.2 * 0.05 + 0.2 * -0.05
r = 0.08 or 8%
The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,
SD = √pA * (rA - r)² + pB * (rB - r)² + ... + pN * (rN - r)²
SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.08)² + 0.4 * (0.12 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (0.05 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (-0.05 - 0.08)²
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent
Answer:
Part a. Record the transaction on the day the materials were bought.
Materials Account $180,000 (debit)
Cash $180,000 (credit)
Part b. Record the transaction on the day the materials were requisitioned
Work In Progress $165,000 (debit)
Materials Account $165,000 (credit)
Explanation:
Part a. Record the transaction on the day the materials were bought.
Recognise the Assets of Materials Purchased and Derecognise Cash to depict ouflow of economic benefits
Part b. Record the transaction on the day the materials were requisitioned
De-recognise the Materials applied in Production Process and Recognise the cost in Work In Progress Account
An incentive is a thing that motivates or encourages one to do something.
Financial incentives can include things like bonuses, raises, paid time off, and other things that involve money.
Non-Financial incentives include things like recognition, respect, career development opportunities, retirement planning assistance, improved work environment, etc.
If the total production exceeds the total expenditures this means that there are more goods are produced than the demand of each households. Thus, this will lead to an increase of inventory. Then this will signal the manufacturing firm that they have overproduced the goods which will lead to cut back the production. This leads to lesser prices and/or unsold goods alongside with the likelihood of unemployment. Therefore the answer is d.
