Answer:
35.92%
Explanation:
The computation of cost of not taking the cash discount is shown below:-
Discount percentage ÷ (100 - Discount percentage) × (360 ÷ (Full Allowed Payment Days - Discount Days))
= 3% ÷ 97% × 360 ÷ (50 - 19)
= 3% ÷ 97% × 360 ÷ 31
= 0.03093 × 11.61290
= 0.359187
= 35.92%
Therefore for computing Mr. Warner's cost of not taking the cash discount we applied the above formula.
Answer:
Explanation:
Expected return of the portfolio is weighted average of the return of the components.
E(R) = w1 * R1 + w2 * R2
E(R) = 65% * 18% + 35% * 6%
E(R) = 11.70% + 2.10%
Expected Return, E(R) = 13.80%
Standard deviation of portfolio is mathematically represented as:
where
w1 = the proportion of the portfolio invested in Asset 1
w2 = the proportion of the portfolio invested in Asset 2
σ1 = Asset 1 standard deviation of return
σ2 = Asset 2 standard deviation of return
For risk free money market fund, standard deviation = 0 and its correlation with risky portfolio = 0
Standard deviation = 19.50%
Answer:
C. a result of the seasonal pattern of work in specific industries
Explanation:
Seasonal Unemployment results out of seasonal demand of labor in those industries where the nature of job is dependent upon weather or business seasons.
For example in case of crops, during the harvest season, there is high demand for labor while during the rest of the year there is no demand at all. So laborers of such industries are employed for a fixed duration in an year and remain unemployed for the rest of the period.
This unemployment is not due to inadequacy of labor skills but results owing to nature of the industry and seasonal pattern of the work required.
Answer:
A. Selection of the appropriate causal variable Y is important
Explanation:
We have this function, Y = f(X).
From this function we can see that Y is dependent on X. That is, it is a function of X. Y is not a causal variable. A causal variable is a variable that is able to influence the variable of interest. From this question Y is the variable of interest. It is the dependent variable. The independent variable is X and it is the causal variable.
Therefore the incorrect one is Selection of the appropriate causal variable Y is important
