Answer:

Gambler's hot-hand

Explanation:

This fallacy appears when individuals belief that in a small series the sample will be disproportioned to the actual odds and thus, not correlated. This means the person will expect a given result (heads for the first and tails for the second) will continue with a long-streak ("hot-hand")

This fallacy comes from people that state random small sequences will disclosure a higher deviation than greater sequences and thus, higher streak of one result over another.

The depreciation deduction for year 11 of an asset with a 20-year useful life is $4,000. If the salvage value of the asset was e
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The answer is $80,000

Explanation:

The formula for straight-line depreciation is:

[Cost of asset - salvage value(if any)] ÷ useful life of the asset

Depreciation = $4,000

Cost of asset= ? (represented by y)

Useful life of the asset = 20 years

$4,000 = y ÷ 20 years

y is $4,000 x 20 years

y = $80,000

Therefore, the initial cost of the asset was $80,000

A bond has yield to maturity of 7.15 percent; face value of $1,000; time to maturity of 11 years and pays coupons semiannually.
maxonik [38]

Answer:

6.34 %

Explanation:

For computing the coupon rate, first we have to determine the PMT by using the PMT formula that is shown on the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $939.02

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 7.15% ÷ 2 = 3.58%

NPER = 11 years × 2 = 22 years

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(Rate;NPER;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the PMT is $31.70

It is semi annually

Now the annual PMT is

= $31.70 × 2

= $63.40

So, the coupon rate equals to

= $63.40 ÷ $1,000

= 6.34 %

Fantom [35]

Answer:

  • <em>The slope of the demand curve at point A is   </em><u><em> </em></u><u>- $0.40/unit</u>

  • <em>The slope of the demand curve at point B is     </em><u>- $0.14/unit</u>

Explanation:

See the file attached with the figure corresponding to this question.

<em>The slope of a curve</em> at a given point is the slope of the line tangent to the curve at that point.

<em><u>Point A:</u></em>

The tangent line to the <em>demand curve at point A is</em> drawn and passes through the points (20, 34) and (45, 24).Then, the slope is:

  • slope = rise / run = ΔP / Δq = $ (34 - 24) / (20 - 45) units

  • slope = - $10 /25units = - $2/5units = - $0.40/unit.

The minus sign indicates the that price decreases when the quantity increases

<u><em>Point B:</em></u>

<em>The tangent line to the demand curve at point B</em> passes through the points (90, 12) and (140, 5).Then, the slope is:

  • slope = rise / run = ΔP / Δq = $ (12 - 5) / (90 - 140) units

  • slope = - $7 /50units = - $7/50units = - $0.14/unit.

Again, the negative sign indicates that when the number of units increase the price decreases.

You are considering an investment that will pay you and your heirs $5,000 at the end of each year forever. The price of the inve
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Fair price of the insurance policy is $62,500.

Explanation:

We have given that an investment that will pay you and your heirs $5000

So the annual cash flow = $5,000

It is given that you can earn 8 % annually on your money

Required rate of return = 8%

We have to find the fair price for the investment

Price of this annuity =\frac{5000}{0.08}=$62500

Fair price for the investment is $62,500.

Most states do not allow automobile repair shops to hold a customer's car when the customer refuses to pay for repairs already c
Gekata [30.6K]
I will assume this is a true or false question. The statement above is false. Usually, in all states, the automobile repair shops are allowed to hold their client's car until it is fully repaired this is because the physical car should be present in the shop to be able to be repaired.
