Answer:

Reward to Volatility Ratio = 31.50%

Explanation:

given data

expected risk premium = 12.6%

Treasury bills = 6.4%

invest = $75,000

solution

we know that Reward to Volatility Ratio is express as

Reward to Volatility Ratio = (Expected Portfolio Return - Risk Free Rate) ÷ Standard Deviation       ........................1

so here Expected portfolio Return is

Expected portfolio Return = Risk Free Return + Risk Premium

Expected portfolio Return = 6.40% + 12.60%

Expected portfolio Return = 19%

so

Reward to Volatility Ratio = \frac{0.19 - 0.0640}{0.40}

Reward to Volatility Ratio =0.315

Reward to Volatility Ratio = 31.50%

Existing business with a proven record. When you ask for investments, the lending institution will most definitely ask for your financial track record. They would want to know if you are a good paymaster because they will need the assurance that you can pay them back. Even if you have a really original idea and want to start a new business, there will still be some reservation if you have no track record because the lenders do not know if you are trustworthy or not. Unlike if you already have a proven record that you are a good paymaster, then you at least have proof that you can pay back.

stira [4]

Answer:

B) inside director

Explanation:

An inside director is a member of the board of directors that is also an employee of the company. Usually inside directors should be part of the top management of the company, but in some particular cases that may not apply (e.g. in European cooperatives unions are represented by one member in the board).

It doesn't matter if the directors are inside or outside directors (don't work in the company), they all have a duty of care to the company.
