Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Expected return.

Explanation:

Expected return is the return an investor expects from an investment given the investment's historical return or probable rates of return under different scenarios. To determine expected returns based on historical data, an investor simply calculates an average of the investment's historical return percentages and then, uses that average as the expected return for the next investment period.

In the example, the expected return would be:

<em>Expected return </em><em>= (return in a good economy + return in a poor economy)/2</em>

<em>Expected return </em><em>= (13% + 4%)/2</em>

<em>Expected return </em><em>= </em><em>8,5%</em>

A publisher reports that 55% of their readers own a particular make of car. a marketing executive wants to test the claim that t
Dominik [7]

Based on the percentage of readers who own a particular make of the car and the random sample, we can infer that there is sufficient evidence at a 0.02 level to support the executive claim.

<h3>What is the evidence to support the executive's claim?</h3>

The hypothesis is:

Null hypothesis : P = 0.55

Alternate hypothesis : P ≠ 0.55

We then need to find the test statistic:

= (Probability found by marketing executive - Probability from publisher) / √( (Probability from publisher x (1 - Probability from publisher))/ number of people sampled

= (0.46 - 0.55) / √(( 0.55 x ( 1 - 0.55)) / 200

= -2.56

Using this z value as the test statistic, perform a two-tailed test to show:

= P( Z < -2.56) + P(Z > 2.56)

= 0.0052 + 0.0052

= 0.0104

The p-value is 0.0104 which is less than the significance level of 0.02. This means that we reject the null hypothesis.

The Marketing executive was correct.
