Answer: work hard; $65; less; $85
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
The Expected profit from working hard will be:
= (90% × $200) + (10% × $50)
= (0.9 × $200) + (0.1 × $50)
= $180 + $5
= $185
Then, the profit will be the difference between revenue and coat which will be:
= $185 - $100
= $85
Then, the expected profit from shirking will be:
= (90% × $50) + (10% × $200)
= (0.90 × $50) + (0.10 × $200)
= $45 + $20
= $65
Then, the profit will be:
= $65 - $0
= $65
Eric will (work hard) because the net gain of ($65) from shirking is (less) than the net gain of ($85) from working hard.

Explanation:Forcasting is a technical term used especially in Economy management, statistics,and in operations to predict possible outcomes especially as it concerns the future,putting into consideration prevailing circumstances.

Answer:
If Jenny doesn’t earn any interest on her savings and wants to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, how much will she consume every year?
Jenny's total income during her life = income as tax analyst ($60,000 x 10) + income as PhD student ($12,000 x 5) + income as Art Director (35 x $95,000) = $3,985,000
she generated income during 50 years and expects to live 20 more, so in order to perfectly smooth consumption across her life, she must divide her total life income by 70 years = $3,985,000 / 70 years = $56,928.57 per year
What might prevent her from perfectly smoothing consumption?
First of all, besides inflation, you also earn interest on your savings. That is why 401k and other retirement accounts work so well (the magic of compound interest). Even if inflation and interests didn't exist, you cannot know exactly what you are going to earn in the future and for how many years. In this case, she earned $60,000 for 10 years, but then earned only $12,000 during 5 years. If she really wanted to smooth her consumption, she would have needed to get a loan because her savings during the first 10 years wouldn't be enough.
Answer:
A stock (also known as equity) is a security that represents the ownership of a fraction of a corporation. This entitles the owner of the stock to a proportion of the corporation's assets and profits equal to how much stock they own. Units of stock are called "shares."
Stocks are bought and sold predominantly on stock exchanges (though there can be private sales as well) and are the foundation of many individual investors' portfolios. These transactions have to conform to government regulations that are meant to protect investors from fraudulent practices. Historically, they have outperformed most other investments over the long run. These investments can be purchased from most online stockbrokers
