Answer:
A. Take $1 million now.
Explanation:
A. If we take $1 million now the present value of the money is $1 million.
B. If we choose to take $1.2 million paid out over 3 years then present value will at 10% will be;
$300,000 + $300,000 / 1.2 + $300,000/ 1.44 + $300,000 / 1.728
$300,000 + $250,000 + $208,000+ $173,611 = $931,944
The present value of option B is less than present value of option A. We should select option A and take $1 million now.
Answer:
The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).
Explanation:
Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability
=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%
probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2
0.67 20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243
0.33 -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786
Total=242.239371%
Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)
=15.56%(Approx).
Answer:
E To prevent dumping
Explanation:
There are several arguments that are given to support trade barriers; one of which is to prevent dumping. A country would place embargo on imports with respect to some of the goods that are produced in her country. This is to enable and encourage local production of such goods. Where a country permits importation of goods that are produced locally, such action could being down the efforts of local production ; hence local industries might not thrive in terms of production.
Also, placing embargo on the importation of goods that are produced locally in a country would take away the possibility of making the country for dumping ground in terms of goods that are not up to standard, produced in a foreign country and same would have been imported.
<u>Answer:
</u>
We can expect to see a large change in the quantity demanded for Good A.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- As the price change in the price of good B is inelastic, it is but clear that the price of good B would not show any fluctuations even if there is an increase or decrease in the demand for good B.
- As the price of good B is not subject to decrease in the near future, it can be expected that the demand for good A would exhibit a sudden rise.
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
It will not be proper to just choose the balance in the cash ledger or the one in the bank because the balance as per the cash ledger in the book might be different from the balance in the bank statement in the bank.
So to eliminate this differentiation, bank reconciliation needs to be done. After this reconciliation has been carefully done, the adjusted cash balance in the reconciliation will be used.
