Answer:

probability that make risk neutral accepting project < \frac{1}{3} or 33.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

income = $600 million

legal liability = ​$1,200 million

to find out

what is the theta such that it is indifferent between accepting and rejecting the​ contract

solution

we know here that risk neutral between accept and reject contract   θ value will be as that when net present value NPV of contract = 0

so

we can say NPV > 0

so ( 1- θ )  $600 Million + θ ( $1200 Million)  > 0

$600 Million > $1800 θ

θ < \frac{1}{3} = 33.33 %

so probability that make risk neutral accepting project < \frac{1}{3} or 33.33 %

To hang lights up on his house.Garrett place is a 14 foot ladder 4 feet from the base of the house. How high up the house will t
Mariulka [41]

This seems like a right triangle problem.

So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem (a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}) to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.

So, the equation is 4^{2} +x^{2} =14^{2}.

Solve for x:

16+x^{2}= 196

x^{2}= 196-16

x^{2}= 180

x = 6√5 feet


Hope this helps!
