Answer:

The correct answer is: No, he is not correct.

Explanation:

Regression to the mean is a statistical phrase that tries to explains that is something happened at the first attempt, it is likely to happen again at a second attempt and if it happens at the second attempt it is because it almost happened at the first attempt.

Then, following the concept of regression to the mean,<em> if a mutual fund performed badly on the last period, it is likely to perform even worse in the current period</em>. Thus, the online investment blogger is wrong.

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

C. a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

These four (4) factors of production when combined effectively and efficiently are used for the manufacturing or production of goods and services that meets the unending requirements or needs of the consumers.

A public good is a good whose benefits cannot readily be restricted to a small group of people.

This ultimately implies that, a public good such as power utility (electricity) or water supply is capable of being provided simultaneously to the general public.

Furthermore, a public good is non-excludable and cannot be exhausted due to its use by the general public i.e it's never depleted.
