Answer:

Invest $990,099 U.S

Explanation:

The interest rate is 2% for US dollars and 1% for euro

The exchange rate is 1.25 dollars to a euro.

To calculate future exchange rate:

1.25dollars (1+exchange rate of us/1+ exchange rate of euro)

= 1.25(1.02/1.01)

= 1.2625

Approximately 1.26

After a year they will be getting .26 million dollars.

They need to invest something close to this amount 1.2/1.02

Therefore option b is the best answer

Ber [7]

Answer:

The second gamble has the higher expected value. EV = 4

Explanation:

In betting, expected value can be defined as (Amount won per bet * probability of winning) – (Amount lost per bet * probability of losing)

For the first gamble:

EV=(0.5*20) - (0.5*20) = 0

For the second gamble:

EV= (0.2*100) - (0.8*20) = 4

This means that Cal is expected to earn $4 for each $20 waged on the second gamble while he is expected to break even in the first gamble.

Therefore, the second gamble has the higher expected value.
