Which of the following is a discrete quantitative variable?

Business
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago

Answer:

D. The number of employees of an insurance company.

Explanation:

The variable that measures the numbers such as height, number of people, shoe sizes is called the discrete quantitative variable. Therefore, option "D" is the answer. Anyone can measure the number of employees. It is not continuous process too.

The volume of water cannot be measured with a specific value, and the Dow Jones Industrial average is not a certain value. So, those options are incorrect either. Although Option "C" can be measured with a value, it cannot be interrupted and continuous process. Hence, it is also wrong.

Which one of these statements related to discounted payback is correct?a) the discounted payback period decreases as teh discoun
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

A) the discounted payback period decreases as the discount rate increases

Explanation:

The discounted payback period is used to determine the profitability of an investment project.

A not discounted payback period is how long does it take for the cash flows of a project to recoup the investment's cost without considering the value of money in time. By applying a discount to the cash flows, the discounted period will more accurately measure the length of time needed to recoup an investment using current dollars.

The higher the discount rate, the longer it will take for the cash flows to cover the investment's cost, so if the discount rate lowers, then the discounted payback period will be shorter.
