ont or the back door and similarly when he returns, he is equally likely to go to either the front or the back door. the runner owns 3 pairs of running shoes which he takes off after the run at whichever door he happens to be. if there are no shoes at the door from which he leaves to go running, he runs barefoot. we are interested in determining the proportion of time that he runs barefoot. 1. set this problem up as a discrete time markov chain. give the states and the one-step transition probability matrix. 2. determine the proportion of days that he runs barefoot.

A benchmark market value index is comprised of three stocks. yesterday the three stocks were priced at $12, $20, and $60. the nu
Olenka [21]

Answer: The one day rate of return on the stock is 1.49%

We arrive at the answer in the following manner:

First we need to calculate yesterday's and today's index values.

For that we need to find weights of each day based on market capitalization.

Market Capitalization _{ a stock} = Market Price * No .of outstanding shares

The weight of a company in the index is calculated by dividing the market capitalization  of a company by the total market capitalization of all the companies whose shares are a part of the index.

Weight_{Company A} =\frac{Mkt Cap of company A}{Total Market cap}

Then, we multiply the share price of each company with their respective weights and find the total to arrive at the index value for one day.

<u>Yesterday's Index Value</u>

Stock        Price         No. of shares      Mkt Cap  Weight  Weight*Price

A               12               600000        7200000      0.25      2.96 (0.25*12)    

B               20               500000       10000000    0.34      6.85(0.34*20)

C               60               200000       <u>12000000</u>     <u>0.41</u>      <u>24.66  </u>(0.41*60)

Total                                                 29200000     1.00      34.47

We calculate the weight for stock A as follows:

Weight_{A} =\frac{72,00,000}{2,92,00,000} = 0.2466 = 0.25

We calculate the weights of the remaining stocks in a similar manner.

Please note that the sum total of all weights must add up to 1.

The sum total of the last column (Price * Weight) is yesterday's index value.

We repeat the same steps with today's market price to arrive at today's index value.

<u>Today's index Value</u>

Stock        Price   No. of shares       Mkt Cap     Weight    Weight*Price

A               16               600000       96,00,000     0.31        4.95 (0.31*16)    

B               18               500000       90,00,000     0.29       5.23  (0.29*18)

C               62               200000    <u>1,24,00,000</u>     <u>0.40</u>     <u>24.80</u>(0.40*62)

Total                                                3,10,00,000     1.00     34.98

<u>One-day Rate of Return</u>

We can calculate the one day rate of return on the index as follows:

Rate of return = [\frac{(Today's index value - Yesterday's index value}{Yesterday's index value}) * 100

Rate of Return = ( \frac{34.98 - 34.47}{34.47}) * 100

Rate of return = (\frac{0.51}{34.47}) *100

Rate of return = 0.01494 or 1.49%

A homeowner fears the construction of a factory nearby will decrease the value of her property. this illustrates the principle of externalities.

Many people are unaware that there are tax advantages for home owners when they purchase, own, remodel and even sell their property. These advantages take the form of tax deductions, which lower your taxable income and hence lower your tax payment.

However, you might be astonished to hear that even though the house was bought with a mortgage, you still own it. As the homeowner, your name is listed on the title. The lender does not actually own your home; rather, they only have a stake in the property and the mortgage note.

According to the Federal Reserve's 2020 Survey of Consumer Finances, if you own your home, you probably have a higher value than someone who rents. The assumption that owning a home is a wise financial decision is supported by the fact that homeowners have a net worth that is more than 40 times bigger than their counterparts who rent.

Which recovery operations requires operators/crews to use their basic issue items (bii), an additional list (aal), or on-vehicle
Sonbull [250]

Recovery is saving, that is, releasing immobile, inoperative, or abandoned equipment from its current location and returning it to operation or to a repairs site for maintenance. These actions typically involve towing, lifting, or winching. The answer here is self-recovery. Actions necessitate using only the equipment’s assets. Self-recovery starts at the place where the equipment becomes caught up or disabled. The operator or crew uses the accessible recovery objects to carry out self-recovery.
