Answer:

Option A is riskier

Explanation:

In this question, we want to know which of the two stocks is riskier.

To answer this, we can use the standard deviation of returns as a risk measure.

For a security with a big value for standard deviation of returns, its per period returns are wider making its range per day large.

Hence, what this means is that out of the two stocks, the one with a larger value of standard deviation of returns will guarantee more risk as it is expected to give a better ranges of price

Now back to the values in the question, we can see that the standard deviation of returns of stock A is greater than that of stock B which this makes it a more risky option

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Behan will recover his amount.

Explanation:

The contract has not been formed as the contract is only enforceable if the contract is legally allowed which means that the selling of fireworks in this case scenario is not allowed and hence Behan and Fourth of July Company are both equally responsible for not committing to such type of agreements. So the company must payback the money as the contract is not enforceable in the jurisdiction.

Answer: A. dialectic method

Explanation:

The DIALECTIC METHOD or DIALECTICS at it's basic level is a sort of debate between people of opposing viewpoints who wish to use the debate to come up with the best viewpoint by stating the facts and truths of their viewpoints.

They speak on whatever misgivings they may have about the other and explain in a logical manner why their views are better.

It is 'sort' of like a debate because unlike debates, it isn't supposed to get emotional but be fact and merit based.
