Answer:

rE = 0.1486 or 14.86%

Explanation:

The expected rate of return of a stock is the mean return that is expected to be earned by the stock considering the different scenarios that can occur, the return in these scenarios and the probability of the occurrence of these scenarios. The formula for expected rate of return of stock is,

rE = pA * rA  +  pB * rB  +  ...  + pN * rN

Where,

  • pA, pB, ... represents the probability that scenario A, B and so on will occur or the probability of each scenario
  • rA, rB, ... represents the return in scenario A, B and so on

rE = 0.21 * 0.2  +  0.72 * 0.15  +  0.07 * -0.02

rE = 0.1486 or 14.86%

In your own words.<br><br> Why is it important to the business to motivate employees?..
Alexeev081 [22]

This is mainly opinionated, and since I'm young I may be wrong.

I say it's good to motivate them because then they will do a better job at their task and will make you seem like a good boss/person, especially if it's a decent pay that will keep them being able to live. With the motivation, they might even remember more things (Such as: If you work at a gas station, you remember to upsell people when a deal is going on, whereas unmotivated people forget or just don't want to do it and be lazy). It's the same effect of giving a kid a piece of candy for being good, doing chores, or getting a harder question right.

If your a busy small business owner, taking time away from your store makes you less efficient. The trade offs for using this premium service are 1. your spending more money 2. control over quality. Vise versa if your paying more for the “best groceries” then that may not be an issue. Also be aware that another issue is stocking, going to the store yourself does not guarantee that the store will have all items in stock when you go. 3. Time, taking time to grocery shop takes away from your business or the cost of an employee to watch the business or do the shopping for you having you rely on a third party’s judgment. 4. Gas, the cost of gasoline to go to and from the store. If all these are added up then you are essentially paying more for your “in person” groceries as it is. Choosing to grocery shop yourself saves you money (although how much? Once everything is taken into account?) but again the time it takes away is significant. For a busy small business owner time is extremely important and this is why the trade off of cost or added expenses for groceries may be worth it. (I hope this helps guide you in answering this question).

Offer. Ball writes to Sullivan and inquires how much Sullivan is asking for a specific forty-acre tract of land Sullivan owns. B
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Ball can certainly hold Sullivan to a contract for sale of the land.  Sullivan in his reply to Ball's enquiry offered to sell the forty-acre tract of land at $60,000 and nothing less.  Ball accepted this offer by Sullivan by stating his acceptance.

These exchanges of offer and acceptance meet the terms of a valid contract.  Therefore, Ball can always hold Sullivan for contract enforcement.

Explanation:

In making a valid contract, offer and acceptance are key ingredients, with specific consideration.  Since the two parties, Ball and Sullivan are agreed on the consideration and have exchanged offer and acceptance, the validity of the contract is enhanced thereupon.
