Answer:

When someone is navigating a boat at night and they see a white light on a boat. That means that you just encountered another vessel.

Explanation:

Hi, this is a very dangerous situation so please remember well that anytime you see a white light when you are navigating a ship at night it means there is another vessel in that direction. So, you have to provide it some space, because it will be difficult for both of the navigators to calculate the size of the other vessel. So, you have to make your course wider. In those cases also you can provide the other vessel a sound signal that you are incoming in the opposite direction.

North Around, Inc. stock is expected to return 22 percent in a boom, 13 percent in a normal economy, and −15 percent in a recess

almond37 [142]

Answer:

4.53%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Expected return = ∑ (Return × probability)

Thus,

Expected return = (0.06 × 22) + (0.92 × 13) + (0.02 × (-15))

= 12.98%

Now,

Probability Return Probability × (Return-Expected Return)²

0.06 22 0.06 × (22% - 12.98%)² = 4.8816

0.92 13 0.92 × (13% - 12.98%)² = 0.000368

0.02 -15 0.02 × (-15% - 12.98%)² = 5.657608

========================================================

Total = 20.5396%

Standard deviation = $\sqrt{\frac{\text{Total probability}\times(\text{Return-Expected Return})^2}{\text{Total probability}}$

= √(20.5396)

= 4.53%

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The increase in his tax liability is $1,120

Explanation:

STCL due to sale of stock = $8,000

LTCG due to sale of stock = $5,000

∴Net STCL = $8,000 - $5,000

Net STCL = $3,000

LTCG on sale of antique clock = $7,000

∴Net LTCG on sale of antique = $7,000 - $3,000 = $4,000

LTCG on sale of antiques is taxed at the rate of 28%

∴ Tax liability = $4,000 * 28%

Tax liability = $4,000 * 0.28

Tax liability = $1,120

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

A. All of these 3 other possible answers that are listed here are true reasons.

Explanation:

If we are to use wage the rate of change in wages or inflation, as a proxy for inflation in the economy, when there is unemployment, the number of persons searching for work is significantly greater than the number of jobs available for the people who are unemployed. What we mean is, the supply of labor is greater than the demand for it.

With the availability of many workers, there's little need for employers to "bid" for the services of employees by paying them good wages.
