Answer:

The expected return on this stock is:

C. -6.80%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

State of the Economy Probability E(R) Weighted Value

Boom 0.40 16% 0.064

Recession 0.60 -22% -0.132

Total expected returns -0.068

= -6.8%

Let us assume that this stock is Stock A. Therefore, Stock A's expected return is given by adding the weighted returns of the two economic states of Boom and Recession. The result shows that the returns will be negative (-6.8%). This implies that instead of appreciating in value, the stock will actually depreciate by 6.8%.

Answer:

informed consent

Explanation:

Based on the information provided, this is a violation of informed consent. This is because informed consent can only be granted when the individual signing the consent forms COMPLETELY understands and accepts the information presented in the forms. In this scenario, the family may speak English but since their native language is Korean and the consent forms are not offered in Korean there is a large possibility that some of the information may not be fully understood by the family. Thus they are not fully informed when signing.
