Answer: C. While stocks have a higher rate of return in the long run, they are much more volatile (riskier) in the short run. As such, they have a higher probability of having less than the original value of the investment for people who might need to withdraw the investment in the short run.
Explanation:
As stated, people who need to withdraw part or all of their investments in a short time frame such as the elderly are advised to invest in bonds as opposed to stock.
To properly benefit from Stock ownership, one has to be willing to leave it for a long period of time because stocks are more volatile in the short run. If a person needs to withdraw in a short horizon and goes in on Stock, they may lose some of their money due to Capital losses if the Stock reduces in value.
Bonds on the other hand will give a steady income so that even if you wish to withdraw in a short time, you can with the probability of no losses in that short time frame.

Answer:
D. $605,500
Explanation:
The computation of the expected balance in retained earnings on the 2018 is shown below:
The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid
= $533,500 + $112,000 - $40,000
= $605,500
We simply applied the above formula so that the ending balance could arrive by considering all the items given in the question
Answer:
Option b. A and B are conditionally independent given C2.
Explanation:
The conditional probability of an event is the probability that a given event will occur given that another event, say A has already occurred.
In a case where events A and B are independent (in this case, where the probability of A has no effect on the probability of B occurring), the conditional probability of an event B given that A has taken place is simply the probability of the event A.
If the two events are not independent, then the probability of an event occurs as an intersection of set A and B.
Anomaly-based IDS pg. 250 is an intrusion detection system that compares
current activity with stored profiles of normal (expected) activity. While an
intrusion detection system that uses pattern matching and stateful matching to
compare current traffic with activity patterns (signature) of known network
intruders is Pattern-(signature) based IDS pg. 250.
