Answer:
Option "Inversely" is correct.
Explanation:
Option “Inversely” is correct because the increase in price level exhibits inflation and a rise in inflation decreases the purchasing power of money. However, if the price level decreases or inflation decreases, then the purchasing power of money increases. Therefore we can see that increase in price level decreases the purchasing power and a decrease in price level increases the purchasing power. Therefore, there is an inverse relationship.
Answer:
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent
Explanation:
To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,
r = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN
Where,
- pA, pB, ... represents the probability of state occurrence
- rA, rB, ... represents return A, return B and so on under each state
r = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.4 * 0.12 + 0.2 * 0.05 + 0.2 * -0.05
r = 0.08 or 8%
The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,
SD = √pA * (rA - r)² + pB * (rB - r)² + ... + pN * (rN - r)²
SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.08)² + 0.4 * (0.12 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (0.05 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (-0.05 - 0.08)²
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent
Answer:
i b) Group cohesiveness
ii c) Group heterogeneity
iii a) Group norms
iv d) Social loafing
Explanation:
i b) Group cohesiveness (this terms refers to the strong link between members of a social group as a whole)
ii c) Group heterogeneity (Refers to inter functional collaboration, individuals from different fields will be working together)
iii a) Group norms (refers to the informal rules that a group adopts and regulate on its own)
iv d) Social loafing (this terms refers to the idea that people are prone to exert less effort while working in a group, considering that others will take care of the work)
