Current projections show that the restaurant will continue to lose money, but she decided to go ahead and invest a large sum of money into more advertising for it. Skylar is demonstrating which bias?

Answer:

Commitment bias

Explanation:

Commitment bias refers to keep doing something because that is what you have always done, or because that is what you have said before that you wanted to do. This means that you are so committed to an idea, that you cannot realize that it is probably not a very good idea.

In this case, Skylar is so committed to making her brick and mortar restaurant work, that she cannot understand that it probably will never do.

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The expected return of your portfolio is 6.02%

Explanation:

Stock     Value     Expected Rate of return   Weightage

  A          $200                   8%                      $200/$300 = 0.67

  B          $100                    2%                      $100/$300 = 0.33

Expected Rate of return = ( Expected rate of return Stock A x Weightage of Stock A ) + ( Expected rate of return Stock B x Weightage of Stock B )

Expected Rate of return = ( 8% x 0.667 ) + ( 2% x 0.33 )

Expected Rate of return = 0.0536 + 0.0066 = 0.0602 = 6.02%

Michelle operates a food truck. Indicate the amount (if any) that she can deduct as an ordinary and necessary business deduction
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. $80

B. $795

C. $0

Explanation:

Only expenses that can be directly attributed to the business are deductible.

Personal expenses will not be deductible.

A. Here the only deductible amount is the legal fees of $80. The speeding will not be charged to the business because it was as a result of personal negligence. The legal fees affect the business because the speeding related to a business asset.

B. Only the amount paid to reserve a spot will be deductible because it relates to expenses for the business to make profit. The money she spent on her children is a personal expense.

C. There is no deductible here. These activities were of a personal nature and in no way related to the operations of the business of operating the food truck.
