With stocks of 8% for A and 16% for B, The global minimum variance is given as 10.5 percent
<h3>How to solve for the variance</h3>
The expected return of the stock for the country a is given as 0.05
The Weight of this country's stock market WA = 0.5
The expected return of the stock for the country a is given as 0.16
The Weight of this country's stock market Wb = 0.5
Expected Return of the portfolio can be calculated as
= (WA x RA) + (WB * RB)
Expected Return of the portfolio = (0.5x 0.05 ) +(0.5*0.16)
= 0.105
= 10.5%

Answer:
$302,500
Explanation:
The computation of total amount of product costs is shown below:-
Product cost for 11,000 units = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead cost incurred
= ($7.30 + $3.90 + $2.20 + $14.10) × 11,000
= $27.50 × 11,000
= $302,500
Therefore for computing the total amount of product costs we simply applied the above formula.
Answer:
A product's life cycle is generally divided into four stages:
- Introduction: requires a very large marketing effort (a lot of money invested), sales are generally low but the goal is to establish the product in the customers' minds.
- Growth: Sales start to pick up as customers accept the new product or service, and new competitors might appear. Companies have to try to differentiate their product from the competition.
- Maturity: sales reach their highest peak. Many companies extend the growth stage by making small changes and different versions of the product or service. Competition is generally very intense at this stage and since the market growth stalls, each company tries to win the market share of other companies.
- Decline: sales start to decline since the product or service might become obsolete. Competition starts to shrink since companies start to exit the market. Companies might extend the decline stage by adding new uses for their products or cutting prices.
