Answer: d. $51,000
Explanation:
In March the following will be collected as per the method of collection for Gaylord Company.
1. 35% of sales in March
2. 45% of sales in February
3. 100% - 35% - 45% = 20% of sales in January.
= (35% * 40,000) + (45% * 60,000) + (20% * 50,000)
= 14,000 + 27,000 + 10,000
= $51,000
I have attached the missing part of the question.
Answer:
The correct answer that fills the gap is: Fall.
Explanation:
The paradox of saving or paradox of frugality or paradox of austerity suggests, according to the Keynesian economic aspect, that if all the inhabitants try to save more, that is to say to dedicate to saving a greater percentage of their income, the aggregate demand will fall, the production will fall and the total population savings will be equal or lower.
The explanation of the paradox is because the total income of the population (Y) is equal to the sum of the income of its individuals. Since personal income can be used for consumption or savings, and that consumption forms an essential part of aggregate demand - which finances global income through income and wages - if the percentage of savings increases, logically consumption will decrease , so that aggregate demand will decrease further and, consequently, global income, which will cause personal income to fall. When personal income or income falls, each individual will have to dedicate a greater percentage of their income to save in order to continue saving the same in absolute terms. This will further reduce their consumption (already reduced by the fall in income) so that income will be even more reduced and so on to the point that some or many must use their savings in order to solve the decrease in income.

NOTE: If you need to extend the explanation given, you can make a comment or add a new question. I will be very pleased to help you.
Answer:
a. Expected Return = 16.20 %
Standard Deviation = 35.70%
b. Stock A = 22.10%
Stock B = 29.75%
Stock C = 33.15%
T-bills = 15%
Explanation:
a. To calculate the expected return of the portfolio, we simply multiply the Expected return of the stock with the weight of the stock in the portfolio.
Thus, the expected return of the client's portfolio is,
- w1 * r1 + w2 * r2
- 85% * 18% + 15% * 6% = 16.20%
The standard deviation of a portfolio with a risky and risk free asset is equal to the standard deviation of the risky asset multiply by its weightage in the portfolio as the risk free asset like T-bill has zero standard deviation.
b. The investment proportions of the client is equal to his investment in T-bills and risky portfolio. If the risky portfolio investment is considered of the set proportion investment in Stock A, B & C then the 85% investment of the client will be divided in the following proportions,
- Stock A = 85% * 26% = 22.10%
- Stock B = 85% * 35% = 29.75%
- Stock C = 85% * 39% = 33.15%
- T-bills = 15%
- These all add up to make 100%
The hindsight bias and overconfidence, plus our eagerness to perceive patterns in random events, can cause tendencies that may lead us to overestimate our intuition. Intuition and intellect are not always accurate, therefore these factors are not trustworthy compared to scientific facts or scientific inquiry which can help us overcome our intuition’s biases and shortcomings.
Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Percentage increase in price = 5%
Percentage decrease in quantity demanded = 15%
Therefore,
= 3.0
Hence, elasticity of demand facing Billy Bob's Barber Shop is 3.0
