Better Houses, Inc. has been contracted to build an addition on the Joyners' house. It built half of the addition and then unexpectedly announced that it was not going to finish the job. Such a desertion of work is called "Abandonment of contractual obligations".
<h3>What is contractual obligations?</h3>
Contractual obligations are responsibilities that each party is bound by law to fulfill under the terms of the agreement.
Each contract involves one or both parties exchanging anything of value in connection with a variety of duties, such as goods, services, money, etc.
Elements of a Contract are-
- Offer: An offer was made when one of the parties pledged to carry out or refrain from carrying out a specific action in the future.
- Promise of consideration: A promise of something of value in return for the intended conduct or inaction. This can be demonstrated by a substantial outlay of resources, a promise to provide a service, a commitment not to do something, or reliance on the promise. The incentive for the parties to enter into the agreement is known as consideration.
- Acceptance: The offer was unmistakably accepted. Acceptance can be demonstrated through words, actions, or by carrying out the contract's requirements. In general, the terms of the acceptance must match those of the offer. If not, the acceptance is interpreted as a counteroffer and rejection.

$13.5 million
Explanation:
Fractional Banking System- This is banking system where banks are required by the central banking authority to keep a certain percentage of their total deposit as the minimum reserve which they cannot lend out.
The idea behind this requirement is to help manage liquidity risk- a situation where a bank does not have enough cash to meet its deposit customers demand.
Required-reserve ratio: The minimum percentage that banks are required to keep as reserve is known as the required-reserve ratio. In this question, it is given as 10%. Multiply this ratio by the total deposit and you will get the required reserve in dollar amount.
Therefore the required reserve for this bank = 10% ×$15 million= $1.5 million
Excess reserve; Excess reserve is the balance of the total deposit over and above the required reserve. The bank can lend and create loan asset from this balance.
It is calculated as = Total deposit - Required reserve
So we apply this to our question
Excess reserve = $15 million - (10% × $15 million)
= $15 million - $1.5 million
= $13.5 million
Answer:
e. the expected return on a security is positively and linearly related to the security's beta.
Explanation:
As per CAPM: Expected return (ER) = Rf + \beta (Rm - Rf)
Lets assume risk free return (Rf) as 5%, \beta as 2 and expected market return (Rm) as 10%
then, ER = 5% + 2 (10% - 5%) = 15%
However if lets assume all the other factors remain the same and \beta increases to 3
then, ER = 5% + 3 (10% - 5%) = 20%
Similarly if \beta reduces to 1
then, ER = 5% + 1 (10% - 5%) = 10%
So higher the \beta higher is the risk and hence higher the expected return. Hence expected return on a security is positvely and linearly related to the security's beta
Answer:
allows accurate predictions.
Explanation:
The law of large numbers states that the larger the amount of policy holders, the probability distribution of the number of claims (losses for the insurance company) will be shaped like a normal distribution. This allows the companies to make more accurate predictions about the future number of claims.
In statistics, the law of large numbers states that as the sample size increases, the mean will be much closer to the real mean of the total population.
