Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: machines; new technologies

Explanation: A number of factors all coalesced into the great depression of 1929. This was a time followed by the swing era (1933 - 1947)— the period of time when big band swing music was the most popular music in the US. However, there were a variety of economic changes in great depression that helped Americans cope with the undue hardship caused by the depression and the war that followed. At this time of slow growth, American labor industries increasingly turned to machines and new technologies to enable the economy run more efficiently which helped saved time in producing goods or delivery of services, contributing to the overall profits of the American businesses. It also contributed to the efficiency of a business's output rate, allowing for larger quantities of products to be moved or of services to be rendered.

You observe a portfolio for five years and determine that its average return is 12.5% and the standard deviation of its returns

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Yes, you can be confident that the portfolio will not lose more than 30% of its value next year

Explanation:

In this question , the average return of portfolio is 12.5% and the standard deviation is 19.5%. It is estimated that there will be 30% loss next year. The confidence interval is 95%.

Range = Average return ± 2 x Standard deviation Low aid = 12.5% - (2 x19.5%) =12.5% -39% = -26.5%

High end = 12.5% +(2 x19.5%) =12.5%+39% = 51.5%

Thus, the low end is

26.5%

The range of return at 95% confidence interval is -26.5% to 51.5%
