Answer: B. The country club style

Explanation:

Blake and Jane Mouton (1960s) proposed a graphic portrayal of leadership styles through a managerial grid (sometimes called leadership grid). The grid depicted two dimensions of leader behavior, concern for people (accommodating people’s needs and giving them priority) on y-axis and concern for production (keeping tight schedules) on x-axis, with each dimension ranging from low (1) to high (9), thus creating 81 different positions in which the leader’s style may fall.

Country Club: This is a collegial style characterized by low task and high people orientation where the leader gives thoughtful attention to the needs of people thus providing them with a friendly and comfortable environment. The leader feels that such a treatment with employees will lead to self-motivation and will find people working hard on their own. However, a low focus on tasks can hamper production and lead to questionable results.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

A) PED = 1.1

B) demand is elastic

C) Danny's total revenue would decrease

Explanation:

we can calculate the price elasticity of demand using the formula:

PED = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price = [(300 - 250) / 250] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / 2.75] = (50 / 250) / (-0.5 / 2.75) = 0.2 / 0.18 = 1.1

since PED = 1.1, the demand is elastic

if the PED is the same when the price decreases from $2.25 to $1.75, total revenue will    :

when price = $2.25, total revenue = $2.25 x 300 = $675

when price = $1.75, total revenue = $1.75 x 373 = $652.75

*a 22.22% decrease in the price will cause a 24.44% increase (= 22.22% x 1.1) in the quantity demanded = 300 units + (300 x 24.44%) = 373.3 ≈ 373 units

A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of 6.5 percent and a standard devi
mario62 [17]

Answer: Step 1) Find share of market in the Portfolio

(11.5-3.5)x+3.5=6.5

8x=3

x=3/8

x=0.375

=37.5%

SD of market portfolio= 0.375x+0=9.5

x=9.5/0.375

=25.33%

correl = cov / (std 1 * std2)

0.4=COV/0.2533*0.545

COV= 0.2533*0.545*0.4=0.05

cov of 2 assets = b1 * b2 * variance of market

0.05=B1*1*0.2533^2

B of security=0.0032

Capm Model

3.5+0.0032(11.5-3.5)=3.5256% expected return

Explanation:

Step 1) Find the share of market in the portfolio in order to find market SD

Step 2)  Find Covariance betweens security and market by using both SDS and correlation

Step 3) Find Beta of Security using Co variance

Step 4) Use the Beta in CAPM model in order to find expected return
