The rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Southern California follows the normal distribution with a mean of $2,200 per month and

a standard deviation of $250 per month. The distribution of the monthly costs does not follow the normal distribution. In fact, it is positively skewed. What is the probability of selecting a sample of 50 one bedroom apartments and finding the mean to be at least $1,950 per month?

Answer:

The probability is 1.

Explanation:

Despite that the he distribution is positively skewed, the distribution of sample means of one-bedroom apartments  will still be a a normal distribution based on Central Limit Theorem.

Since we have

μ = mean = 2200

SD = standard deviation  = 250

n = sample size = 50

Therefore,

Standard error = SD ÷ √n

                        = 250 ÷ √50

                        = 250 ÷ 7.07106781186548

                        = 35.3553390593274  approximately 35.36

Standardize xbar to z = (xbar - μ) ÷ (SD ÷ √n)

Therefore, we have:

P(xbar > 1,950) = P(z > (1,950 - 2200) ÷ 35.36)

                        = P(z > - 250 ÷ 35.36)                      

                        = P(z > -7.07) = 1

Therefore, the probability of selecting a sample of 50 one bedroom apartments is 1 which can be said to be certain.

<u>Investment</u>       <u>Return</u>     <u>Taxable amount</u>    <u>Tax Rate</u>       <u>After-tax return</u>

Dividend              9.8%             30% (n1)              18%             9.2708% (w1)

Municipal bond   8.8%              0%                      18%             8.8%

Corporate bond   11.75%          100%                   18%             9.635% (w2)

The after tax return with on the best investment alternative is 9.635% for corporate bonds

<u>Workings</u>:

W1

9.8 *0.3*0.18 = 0.5292%

Return after tax = 9.8% -0.5292% = 9.2708%

w2

18.75*0.18 =2.115%

Return after tax = 11.75% -2.115% = 9.635%

<u>Notes:</u>

When making any type of business you have to register it. I'm making an online store. When I register my website domain does tha
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

In this question, it is asked about two things. Registering and business and registering a website.

First, we explore registering a business, and then we will explore registering a website.

Registering a business:

In any economy or any country, if you are making any type of business and it is legally approved by that government, then it is your moral duty to register the business because government collect taxes from registered business and give benefit in return to those whose business is registered.

To register a business, it requires you to register your business with company registration institution. The business that has registration considered authentic and legally proved business and everyone can trust these businesses while dealing. Government gives incentives and benefits to registered business and solve their issues if they have any, for example, to do import and export, the government facilitate you in this regard.

Registering a business website:

Registering a business website is like to make your online existence that everyone globally approaches you. Registering a business and registering a website, both are different things. Registering a business website, or getting a domain for your site, does not count as registering it. The procedures for registering a business in any country is different than registering or getting a domain name for your website. for example, if I am in Pakistan, and I want to register my website, it might chances that I will register it on Microsoft cloud or google cloud. This registration does not contribute and give benefit to Pakistan in the collection of tax. And the government does not give me incentive as likes others who have registered their business with registration body.
