Answer:

The correct answer is d. Economists strongly agree with the first claim, but are skeptical of the second.

Explanation:

A mutual fund is an investment alternative that consists of contributions from natural and legal persons (called participants or contributors), to form equity for their investment in shares, debt instruments or fixed income, or a combination of both ( shares + fixed income). They offer a diversified investment alternative since they invest in numerous instruments at the same time. These instruments vary according to the type of fund and are defined by the investment policy regulated by the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance. They are managed by corporations called General Fund Administrators (AGF) that are chosen by the participants themselves. It is important to choose both the administrator and the type of fund based on what best suits each personal situation.

Why are there so many cell phone stores in bad neighborhoods?
frosja888 [35]
In my opinion, bad neighborhoods have a large amount of cell phone stores because the people in the bad neighborhood usually don't come across (or have for that matter) phones. And to see the 'cool' cellphones in person and to have the people sell it in person, the people in the bad neighborhood should want it more. And considering the modern generation we are living in right now, people like technology and want it, in the term 'humans as economical creatures', a human's want will never be satisfied, they will always want more. So, as I said, people and their families like technology, and all the cellphone sellers will come to the neighborhoods who will buy and want more, why would they sell in places where people already have cell phones, so they go to bad neighborhoods.

unless you mean 'bad' isn't 'not highly rich' then I don't know, but as a thirteen year old, I tried.

LO 8.5When might an unfavorable variance be a good outcome?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer: An unfavorable variance can be used to detect a drop in estimated income early, and then solutions to the challenge can be identified.

Explanation:

An unfavorable variance is the difference between a company's projected expectation and the actual outcome of a financial activity of the company, where the actual outcome is less favorable than the projected expectation.

The information from an unfavorable variance can help alert a company to a negative outcome early, and the company's leadership can then find ways of solving the cause of the negative outcome.
