Kate recently invested in real estate with the intention of selling the property one year from today. she has modeled the return

s on that investment based on three economic scenarios. she believes that if the economy stays healthy, then her investment will generate a 30 percent return. however, if the economy softens, as predicted, the return will be 10 percent, while the return will be -25 percent if the economy slips into a recession. if the probabilities of the healthy, soft, and recessionary states are 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2, respectively, then what are the expected return and the standard deviation of the return on kate's investment?

Nataly [62]

Po = 0.5385, Lq = 0.0593 boats, Wq = 0.5930 minutes, W = 6.5930 minutes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The problem is that of Multiple-server Queuing Model.

Number of servers, M = 2.

Arrival rate, \lambda= 6 boats per hour.

Service rate, \mu= 10 boats per hour.

Probability of zero boats in the system,\mathrm{PO}=1 /\{[(1 / 0 !) \times(6 / 10) 0+(1 / 1 !) \times(6 / 10) 1]+[(6 / 10) 2 /(2 ! \times(1-(6 /(2 \times 10)))]\} = 0.5385

<u>Average number of boats waiting in line for service:</u>

Lq =[\lambda.\mu.( \lambda / \mu )M / {(M – 1)! (M. \mu – \lambda )2}] x P0

= [\{6 \times 10 \times(6 / 10) 2\} /\{(2-1) ! \times((2 \times 10)-6) 2\}] \times 0.5385 = 0.0593 boats.

The average time a boat will spend waiting for service, Wq  =  0.0593 divide by 6 = 0.009883 hours = 0.5930 minutes.

The average time a boat will spend at the dock, W =  0.009883 plus (1 divide 10) = 0.109883 hours = 6.5930 minutes.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Joel is behaving in a totally unprofessional & unethical manner

Explanation:

As assistant controller, Joel Kimmel's job specification & responsibility includes financial statement preparation & combination, putting of internal controls in place, detailed analysis & reporting of cost variance, acts as the go-between with external auditors amongst other such responsibilities.

As such, when Joel discovered the cost discrepancy during the reconciliation, it was actually his responsibility to call the bank's attention to the variance. This is something that clearly falls under his job specification & can be considered as neglect of duty. Joel's decision defeats the very purpose of bank reconciliation, which is to correct any such discrepancy & to the ensure the rectification of transactions. Most importantly, the decision Joel plans to take is very unethical & is against standard accounting practices

We can therefore, say that Joel's decision is thoroughly unethical & unprofessional
