Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Strong form.

Explanation:

The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is the theory that beating the market is impossible because current stock prices reflect all the information investors need to trade the markets. Technical and fundamental analysis remain useless in trying to predict future price action.

The EMH could be classified as the <em>Weak, Strong, </em>and <em>Semi-Strong EMH</em>. The strong form of the EMH establishes that insider information and public information are already in the current stock price, then, there is no special data that could provide an advantage to an investor to take advantage of the market.

In such a case,<em> the strong form of the EMH is opposed to the idea given in the example since it is proposing insider information gives employees an advantage to make large profits before the information of trial drugs is spread among the public.</em>

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

a-1) Pv = 52549

a-2) Pv = 56822

b-1) Fv = 77570

b-2 Fv = 83878

Explanation:

b-1) Future value:

S= Sum of amount of annuity=?

n=number of fixed periods=5 years

R=Fixed regular payments=13200

i=Compound interest rate= .081 (suppose annualy)

we know that ordinary  annuity:

S= R [(1+i)∧n-1)]/i

   = 13200[(1+.081)∧5-1]/.081

    =13200(1.476-1)/.081

    = 13200 * 5.8765

  S  = 77570

a.1)Present value of ordinary annuity:

Formula: Present value = C* [(1-(1+i)∧-n)]/i

                                  =13200 * [(1-(1+.081)∧-5]/.081

                                 =13200 * (1-.6774)/.081

                                =13200 * (.3225/.081)

                                =52549

a.2)Present value of ordinary Due:

Formula : Present value = C * [(1-(1+i)∧-n)]/i   *  (1+i)

                                    =  13200 * [(1- (1+.081)∧-5)/.081   * (1+.081)

                                 = 13200  * 3.9822 *  1.081

                               =  56822

b-2) Future value=?

we know that:         S= R [(1+i)∧n+1)-1]/i ]  -R

                             = 13200[ [ (1+.081)∧  5+1 ]-1/.081]   - 13200

                           = 13200 (.5957/.081)   -13200

                         = (13200 * 7.3544)-13200

                         = 97078  -  13200

                       =  83878

For 2015, Bakers Manufacturing uses machine-hours as the only overhead cost-allocation base. The direct cost rate is $3.00 per u
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The profit margin earned if each unit requires two machine-hours is 25%

Explanation:

For computing the profit margin, first, we have to compute the estimated overhead rate per unit which is shown below:

Estimated Overhead rate = (Estimated manufacturing overhead costs) ÷ (estimated machine hours)

= ($240,000) ÷ (40,000 machine hours)

= $6

Now the profit per margin would equal to

= Selling price per unit - direct cost per unit - overhead cost per unit × number of required machine hours

= $20 - $3 - $6 × 2

= $5

Now the profit margin would equal to

= (Profit per unit) ÷ (selling price per unit) × 00

= ($5 ÷ $20) × 100

= 25%
