What role, if any, should the U.S. government take in this issue of setting fair wages in developing countries?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Corporations of the United States should be tracked by the U.S government to ensure that workers' rights in developing countries should not be compromised.

Explanation:

In many developing countries political leaders are afraid that if wage rates are enforced on big corporations they could be forced off global markets. Foreign investment capital is significant to the economy of developing countries and there is always fear that the loss of such investment may break the economies of these countries. The government of the U.S should ensure vigorous monitoring programs that require businesses to report the location of international factories publicly so that human rights organizations can track their actions independently.

11. If you want to have a return for your Final Portfolio (that is invested between Optimal Risky portfolio and Risk Free Securi

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Note: First of all, this question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to calculate this question. However, I have found the similar question on the internet with complete data given. Additionally, I have shared that data as well in the attachment below for your convenience, Thanks.

Solution:

SD = Standard Deviation

Using utility function, E(R) = Rp - 0.005 x A x $SD^{2}$ = 1.34 - 0.005 x 3x $4.06^{2}$

Using utility function, E(R) = 1.093%

If the weight in the risky portfolio is let's say, "a" then,

weight in the risk-free asset = 1 - a

So,

E(R) = a x Rp + (1 - a) x Rf

1.093% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.50%

Solving for "a"

a = 70.56% - weight in risky portfolio

and 1 - a = 29.44% - weight in risk-free asset.

Similarly, if you want a return of 1.10%,

we can follow the above steps and get

1.1% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.5%

Weight in risky portfolio,

a = 71.43%

weight in risk-free asset,

1 - a = 28.57%
