Answer:

1) What is the size of Labor force

?

60 people are full time employed + 20 people who are part-time employed + 20 people who are unemployed = 100 people

2) What is the Unemployment rate?

20 people who are unemployed / 100 people = 0.2 or 20%

the unemployment rate includes only those people who do not have a job but are willing and able to work, and are currently looking for one.

Consider two stocks, A and B. Stock A has an expected return of 10% and a beta of 1.2. Stock B has an expected return of 14% and
barxatty [35]

Answer:

B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%

Explanation:

Here are the options :

A; it offers an expected excess return of .2%A; it offers an expected excess return of 2.2%B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%B; it offers an expected return of 2.4%

to determine which stock is the better buy, we have to calculate the expected return of the stocks using CAPM

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Stock A = 5% + 1.2(9% - 5%) = 9.8%

Stock B = 5% + 1.8(9% - 5%) = 12.20%

The next step is to determine the excess return

stated expected return - calculated expected return = excess return

Stock A's excess return = 10% - 9.8% - 0.2%

Stock B's excess return = 14 - 12.20 = 1.8%

Security B would be considered because it has a higher excess return

slava [35]

Answer:

The answer to this question is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario displayed above Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.

A  Quasi contract is a contract  that is created by a court order, not by an agreement made by the parties to the contract. For example, quasi contracts are created by the court when no official agreement exists between the parties, in disputes over payments for goods or services

In this case there has not been an official agreement between Kathy and the hospital, However she has to pay the bill presented to her based on Quasi contract which is created to prevent an individual to be unjustly enriched or from benefiting from the situation when he/she  does not deserve to do so.

Hence the answer is c. Kathy has to pay based on a quasi contract.
