Answer:

16.0996% rounded off to 16.1%

Explanation:

We can calculate the standard deviation of a portfolio, that is the total risk of a portfolio, using the following formula,

S.D = √ (w1)² (S.D1)² + (w2)² (S.D2)² + 2 (w1) (w2) (correlation) (S..D1) (S.D2)

Where,

  • w1 is the weigh-age of investment in stock/bond 1
  • S.D1 is standard deviation of returns of stock/bond 1
  • w2 is the weight-age of stock/bond 2
  • S.D2 is the standard deviation of returns of stock/bond 2
  • correlation is the correlation between the returns of stock/bond 1 and 2

We calculate the S.D of given portfolio,

S.D = √ (0.5)² (0.24)² + (0.5)² (0.12)² + 2 (0.5) (0.5) (0.55) (0.24) (0.12)

S.D = 0.160996 or 16.0996 %

The Fed has decided to expand the money supply, leading to lower interest rates. As a partner in a tech start-up, you react to t
Alona [7]

Answer:

A, B and D

Explanation:

Expanding the money supply is an exercise of expansionary monetary policy.

This decision will first allow our tech startup to acquire cheaper loans and expand our operations, this expansion in operations will result in new employment opportunities and hence as a result, unemployment will be reduced assuming this is a general trend in the economy.

This decision also directly reflects an increased investment and hence the GDP on the whole and the investment part of GDP would both increase,

GDP = C + I + G + (X - M), where I = investment.

This change in macro economy will increase aggregate demand due to expansionary effects. Increase in imports is not conclusive as it may or may not happen depending upon the demand state.

Hope this helps.

Suppose lawyers seek legislation to limit the use of computer software that enables people to use their personal computers to se
Harman [31]

Answer:

c. rent-seeking behavior

Explanation:

In economics, rent-seeking behavior can be described as a behavior or conduct that tries to increase the share of an economic agent or an entity from the existing wealth without adding or creating new wealth. This implies that the entity aims to obtain added wealth without creating a new one.

From the question, the aim of the lawyers is mainly to increase their own wealth in terms of legal fees they will collect from preparing wills, trusts, and other legal documents when they prepare them for people when a law restrict people from self-preparing it using their personal computers. In turn, the lawyers will only increase their share of wealth without adding any wealth.

Therefore, this is an example of rent-seeking behavior.
