Answer:
$217,500
Explanation:
We know that the
Cost of goods sold = Sales revenue - gross profit
= $375,000 - $157,500
= $217,500
To compute the cost of goods sold we deduct the gross profit from the sales revenue so that the cost of goods sold can come.
And, the net income would be ignored

The correct option is (b) negligent hiring.
State courts have ruled that companies can be held liable for negligent hiring if they fail to do adequate background checks.
<h3>What is negligent hiring doctrine?</h3>
According to the doctrine of negligent hiring, a company is responsible for any injury its workers do to third parties if they knew or should have known that the employee posed a danger of doing so, or if a reasonable investigation would have revealed the risk.
The causes of negligence hiring are-
- Whether the employee's unfitness was the cause of the injuries that resulted
- Whether the employer knew or should have known (had the employer used ordinary care) of the employee's unfitness at the time of employment. Each state has a different liability standard.
An employer be concerned about negligent hiring and retention because-
- An employer may be liable for real injuries, pain and suffering, and even punitive damages if they fail to discipline an employee who poses a danger of injury to coworkers, clients, and others.
- The company may be held liable if these employees go on to commit careless or reckless conduct that could endanger others.
The elements of a negligent retention claim include all of the following:
- An affiliation with a company.
- The employee's lack of expertise.
- The employer may have had actual or constructive awareness of the ineptitude.
- An employee's action or inaction that resulted in the plaintiff's injuries.

Answer:
a. Expected Return = 16.20 %
Standard Deviation = 35.70%
b. Stock A = 22.10%
Stock B = 29.75%
Stock C = 33.15%
T-bills = 15%
Explanation:
a. To calculate the expected return of the portfolio, we simply multiply the Expected return of the stock with the weight of the stock in the portfolio.
Thus, the expected return of the client's portfolio is,
- w1 * r1 + w2 * r2
- 85% * 18% + 15% * 6% = 16.20%
The standard deviation of a portfolio with a risky and risk free asset is equal to the standard deviation of the risky asset multiply by its weightage in the portfolio as the risk free asset like T-bill has zero standard deviation.
b. The investment proportions of the client is equal to his investment in T-bills and risky portfolio. If the risky portfolio investment is considered of the set proportion investment in Stock A, B & C then the 85% investment of the client will be divided in the following proportions,
- Stock A = 85% * 26% = 22.10%
- Stock B = 85% * 35% = 29.75%
- Stock C = 85% * 39% = 33.15%
- T-bills = 15%
- These all add up to make 100%
Answer:
Choose CareCo.
Explanation:
Given : CareCo offers a generous health insurance package to all employees. ApathyInc pays slightly higher wages than CareCo, but does not offer health insurance.
A person who is unhealthy & expects to have high healthcare expenses : would have issues having direct health insurance from an insurer, based on high risk evaluation. Even if by chance, he/ she gets, it will be at extremely high price i.e premium rates & is likely to have less coverage. So, the person rationally would prefer to protect himself / herself from this huge health expenditure risk, & would protect self & family from catastrophic health costs. He / she would do so by choosing to work for Care Co, which gives generous health insurance to all its employees, by sacrifising higher salary by Apathy giving no health insurance. He/ she is logical as the wage differential is likely to be less than catastrophic health costs
