Answer:
A.) ALPHA 
Portfolio A = 8.5%
Portflio B = 13.5%
B.) Sharpe measure 
Portfolio A = 0.1519
Portflio B = 0.1479
Explanation:
T- bill rate (Rf) =5%
S&P 500 index ( Rm) = 10%
Portfolio A;
Expected rate of return = 9.1%
Beta (B) = 0.7
Standard deviation (s) = 27%
Portfolio B;
Expected rate of return = 12.1%
Beta (B) = 1.7
Standard deviation = 48%
Required rate of return for both portfolios;
Rf + B × (Rm - Rf) 
Portfolio A :
5% + 0.7 ×(10% - 5%) = 5% + 0.7 × (5%)
5% + 3.5% = 8.5%
Portfolio B :
5% + 1.7 ×(10% - 5%) = 5% + 1.7 × (5%)
5% + 8.5% = 13.5%
A) Alpha(A) of Portfolio A and B ;
A = Expected return - Required return
 Alpha of portfolio A :
9.1% - 8.5% = 0.6%
Alpha of Portfolio B:
12.1% - 13.5% = - 1.4%
B.) Sharpe measure for portfolio A and B;
 
Sharpe ratio = (Expected rate of return - Rf) / s
Portfolio A = (9.1% - 5%)/27% = 0.1519
Portfolio B = (12.1% - 5%)/48% = 0.1479
I will choose Portfolio A
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:A. Becky is liable for the damages to Mr. Edwards' garden, because she exercised control over her agent, Maggie.
Explanation:This is a situation where a person is working under the instructions of another, Becky will take the full responsibility for the damage done by the Dog to Mr. Edwards garden.
This can be seen also in conditions where a principal gives instructions or job to an Agent, the actions of the agent will directly impact the Principal as the Agent is working according to the directives of the principal.

A tax that imposes a small excess burden relative to the tax revenue that it raises is an <u>efficient tax.</u>
<h3><u>What Exactly Is Tax Efficiency?</u></h3>
The least amount of taxes that are legally required to be paid by a person or a corporation is known as tax efficiency. When a financial choice results in a lower tax bill than a competing financial structure that serves the same purpose, the choice is said to be more tax-efficient.
<u>Tax-Advantaged Mutual Fund</u>
Another approach to lower tax obligations is to invest in a tax-efficient mutual fund, particularly for taxpayers without access to a tax-deferred or tax-free account. In comparison to other mutual funds, a tax-efficient mutual fund is taxed at a reduced rate. Compared to the standard mutual fund, these funds often produce lower rates of returns through dividends or capital gains. 
Mutual funds that provide little to no interest income or dividends include small-cap stock funds and passively managed ones, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and index funds.

The FDIC stands for Federal Deposit Insurance Company.
By raising the limit on insured losses the FDIC helps stabilize the system by instilling confidence.
If the consumer knows that their savings accounts are protected up to $250,000 they will be encouraged to spend money during a time of crisis.
Because of the increased limit, there is less probability that there would be something called
"a run on the bank."
