You are choosing between these four investments and you want to be​ 95% certain that you do not lose more than 8.00% on your inv
borishaifa [10]

Answer: B. Corporate Bonds and T-Bills

Explanation:

As you want to be 95% certain, this would require a 95% confidence interval.

With the given returns and standard deviations, the range of returns expected will be computed by;

Upper limit = Return + 2*SD

Lower limit  Return - 2*SD

Stocks

Upper Limit = 18.37% + 2 (38.79%)

= 96.0%

Lower Limit = 18.37% - 2 (38.79%)

= -59.2%

S&P 500

Upper Limit = 11.84% + 2(20.01%)

= 51.9%

Lower Limit =  11.84% - 2(20.01%)

= -28.2%

Corporate Bonds

Upper Limit = 6.47% + 2(6.98%)

= 20.4%

Lower Limit = 6.47% - 2(6.98%)

= -7.5%

T-Bills

Upper Limit = 3.46% + 2(3.14%)

= 9.7%

Lower Limit = 3.46% - 2(3.14%)

= -2.8%

The lower limit show the lowest return achievable given a 95% confidence level.

<em>Only </em><em>Corporate Bonds</em><em> and </em><em>T-Bills</em><em> will give a minimum that is above 8% so they should be chosen. </em>

I think the correct answer would be crowdsourcing. It is a practice that involves obtaining certain information from the market or the public. It allows the consumers to suggest and comment on the products a company has. Hope this answers the question.

How do businesses determine the equilibrium price of a good or service?
Helen [10]

Answer:

C. They set a price where the demand matches the quantity they are

willing to supply

Explanation:

The equilibrium price is the current market price as determined by supply and demand forces. It is the price at which buyers are happy to buy the entire supplied quantities. Suppliers are also happy to sell that quantity at the set price. The equilibrium price is, therefore, the intersection of the demand and supply curves.

At the equilibrium price, there is no excess or short supply of a product in the market.

Eastern Electric expects to pay a dividend of $1.69 per share next year and sells for $24 a share. a. If investors believe the g
jonny [76]

Answer:

a. 9.04%

b. 4.96% approx.

c. 10%

Explanation:

a. As per dividend growth model,

Required rate of return = \frac{D_{1} }{P_{0} } \ +\ g

wherein, D_{1} = Next year expected dividend

               P_{0} =  Current market price of a share as on today

               g = Annual growth rate in dividend ( in percentage)

               r = Rate of return or cost of equity

Hence, required rate of return (r) = \frac{1.69}{24} \ +\ .02   = 9.04%

b.  R = 12%

    P_{0} = $24

    D_{1} = $1.69

Then, using the above formula, we have,

.12 = \frac{1.69}{24} \ +\ g

⇒ g = 4.96 % approx

c. g = 3%

   Retention ratio (b) = 30%

   Hence dividend payout ratio = 1 - 30 = 70%

   g = b × r

   .03 = .3 × r

⇒ r = 0.1 or 10%

Hence, rate of return earned by the firm on its's new investment is 10%.

You are the assistant to the CEO of a small textile firm that manufactures high-quality premium priced, stylish clothing. The CE
lidiya [134]

Answer:

My advice to the CEO would be:

First, make a general assessment of the social, economic, and political climate of France. France is a developed country, so this should not impede entering in the French market, but this kind of analysis should anyway be made.

Second, make an assessment of the business climate in France, taking into account factors like tax policy, economic policy and more improtantly, trade policy.

Third, make a market study of the high-end clothing sector in France. France is a country that has many renowned luxury brands, so competition is going to be stiff no matter what, but the market study could highlight some areas where a different kind of impact could be made.

Finally, develop a strategic plan before entering the French market. This plan can be made taking into account all the information from he previous analysis.
