Answer:

C) $5,000

Explanation:

Since the price of the stocks first rose to $50, the account's equity was $50,000.

The SMA balance was = ($50,000 x 1/2) - $20,000 = $,5000

The SMA balance acts like a stabilizer and cannot be taken away even if the price of the stocks fall slightly. The price of stocks must fall 25% in order for the SMA to be withdrawn.

The investor's equity decreased = equity - margin requirement = $39,000 - $20,000 = $19,000, but the amount that the investor can borrow (SMA balance) will remain the same at $5,000.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

Probability, P(n) = 3/8

Explanation:  Let standard delivery be S and express delivery be E.

I) When the parcels were sent:

S(n) = 75/100 and E(n) = 25/100

II) When the parcels arrived:

S(n)← = 80/100 and E(n)← = 95/100

The probability a record of a parcel delivery is chosen, P(n) = S(n)*E(n) + E(n)*S(n) = 75/100*25/100 + 25/100*75/100

P(n) = 3/16 + 3/16 = 6/16

∴ P(n) = 3/8

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": nominal damages.

Explanation:

Nominal damages are granted as monetary rewards when a legal fault takes place but there has not been substantial damage because of it. It is said that the fact of granting the fault represents more of a moral act. Usually, if awarded, the plaintiff may receive $1 or $2.

In the case, as Max suffered no loss because of Lew's delay while painting his house, if he decides to sue him he will be awarded nominal damage for the contract breach.
