Answer: Trade between the two countries is beneficial when United States trade food to Canada and Canada would trade televisions to the United States.
Explanation: In international trade, each country will produce a good in which it has a comparative advantage (lower opportunity cost).
Opportunity cost of food is,
Unites states = 
Canada =
Opportunity cost of television is,
Unites states = 
Canada =
Since, opportunity cost of food is lower in the United states, United states will export food.
Opportunity cost of television is lower in Canada, Canada will export television to the United States.
Answer:
Tax Savings = 200
Explanation:
If Ward and June carry the bond, tax would be:
⇒ Interests * tax rate
⇒ 1000 * 32% = 320
They gift bond to their son, Wally, whose tax would be:
⇒ Interests * tax rate
⇒ 1000 * 12% = 120
The tax savings related to the transfer of Bond is:
⇒ 320 - 120 = 200
Assuming the costs are normally distributed, then Z = (X-mu)/sigma
For piano Z= (3000-4000)/2500 = -0.4
For guitar Z= (550-500)/200 = 0.25
For drums set Z= (600-700)/100 = -1
Drums set < Piano < Guitar
Drums cost is lowest when compared to the instruments of same type
.
Guitar cost is highest when compared to the instruments of same type.
Answer: The correct answer is "B. may be less than the variance of the least risky stock in the portfolio.".
Explanation: If a stock portfolio is well diversified, then the portfolio variance may be less than the variance of the least risky stock in the portfolio.
This occurs because diversifying the risk results in a lower risk in the total portfolio.
