Answer:

They all help explain the downsloping demand curve

Explanation:

The options to the question wasn't provided. The complete question can be in the attached image.

The demand curve slopes downward from left to right. This indicates that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

Income effect is a change in quantity demanded when real income change. Quantity demanded increases when real income increases and decreases when real income falls.

Substitution effect says that consumers would substituite to the consumption of a cheaper good when the price of a good originally consumed increases.

Diminishing marginal utility states that as consumption increases, utility derived from consumption falls and quantity demanded falls.

Suppose that a portfolio has a beta of 1.15. Over the period of one year, the portfolio had a return of 12.4% with a standard de

Darina [25.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

Given:

Weighted average β = 1.15

Average return (r) = 12.4%

Risk free return (Rf) = 1.2%

Market return (Rm) = 10.2%

Standard deviation (SD) = 16.2%

Computation of Jensen's α :

Jensen's α = r - [Rf + β(Rm - Rf)]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - [1.2% + 1.15(10.2% - 1.2%)]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - [1.2% + 10.35%]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - 11.55%

Jensen's α = 0.85%

Computation of Treynor's index :

Treynor's index (Ratio) = (r - Rf) / β

Treynor's index (Ratio) = (12.4% - 1.2%) / 1.15

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 11.2% / 1.15

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 9.73913043%

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 9.74% (Approx)

Computation of Sharpe's index :

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = (r - Rf) / SD

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = (12.4% - 1.2%) / 16.2%

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = 11.2% / 16.2%

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = 0.69 13%

Write your answers to the following questions on the answer sheet.

A. What are Al’s total revenues?

B. What are Al’s explicit costs?

C. What is his accounting profit?

D. List 2 in numbers 2 implicit costs that Al has not included.

E. What is Al ’s pure economic profit (or loss) in numbers?"

a) Al's total revenues = 900 x $1,200 = $1,080,000

b) Al's explicit costs = 900 x $850 = $765,000

c) accounting profit = $1,080,000 - $765,000 = $315,000

d) implicit costs = $105,000 (in lost wages) + $6,000 (in lost interests) = $111,000

e) pure economic profit = $315,000 - $111,000 = $204,000

Patrick and Kathy bought a home for $250,000 three years ago and sold it this year for $225,000. What is the deduction they can

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The amount they can take as deduction for the loss on the sale of their home is; $0.

<h3>How much can they take as deduction for the loss on the sale?</h3>

It follows that deductions can only be taken on losses incurred on the sale of property used for business or investment purposes.

Hence, since the item sold is their personal home, it follows that they cannot take any deduction on the loss on the sale.
