Rupert and cordelia own an american company that does business in foreign nations. getting a license in a new country can be cha

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The payment made by Cordelia

Explanation:

In the scenario it stated clearly that Rupert filled out what would have been a normal application form for operational license in the country

However Cordelia using connections was able to schedule a meeting with the government official that <u>has the authority to determine which foreign companies get licenses, and pays him $200 to approve their license.</u>

Cordelia payment is nothing short of bribery and corruption because it is not a legally required payment and the motive was clearly to unduly influence the minister to approve their license.

Such payment will likely violate the foreign corrupt practices act

Suppose you are currently invested 100% in U.S. stocks and you CANNOT short: a.Find the portfolio that maximizes expected return

Volgvan

Answer:

Part a: The portfolio which maximizes the expected return is in the attached file.

Part b:The portfolio's expected rate of return is 11.20% and the weight is 100% for US only.

Explanation:

As the question is incomplete and the data is not available, thus the complete question is found as attached with the solution.

The Sharpe rate is given as

$S_a=\frac{E_a-E_r}{\sigma}$

Where

E_a is the estimated rate of return for a value
E_r is the risk free rate of return
σ is the standard deviation of the investment.

The portfolio variance is given as

$\sigma^2_{portfolio}=\sum_{i}^{n}{\sigma_i^2w_i^2}+\sum_{i}^{n(n-1)/2}{cv_i}$

Where

σ is the standard deviation of the investment.
w is the weighted value of the investment
cv is the covariance term

Portfolio standard deviation is given as

$\sigma_{portfolio}=\sqrt{\sigma^2_{portfolio}}$

Expected rate is given as

$E_{rate of return}=\sum_{i=1}^{n}{E_a_i\times w_i}$

Now the Sharp value is calculated as above.

Now the values as given in the excel sheet are added in the attached excel sheet, following formulas are used to calculate various values

Sharpe ratio is calculated using =(B6-J3)/C6

Portfolio variance is calculated using (=B13^2*C6^2+B14^2*C7^2+B15^2*C8^2+B16^2*C9^2+2*B13*B14*C6*C7*D7+2*B13*B15*C6*C8*D8+2*B13*B16*C6*C9*D9+2*B14*B15*C7*C8*E8+2*B14*B16*C7*C9*E9+2*B15*B16*C8*C9*F9)

Portfolio standard deviation is SQRT(Variance)

Expected return is calculated using =B13*B6+B14*B7+B15*B8+B16*B9

Sharpe is calculated using =(B23-$J$3)/B22

Part a:

The portfolio which maximizes the expected return is in the attached file.

Part b:

The portfolio's expected rate of return is 11.20% and the weight is 100% for US only.

You want to determine whether there is a lemons problem in the market for single-engine airplanes. Can you use any of the follo

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C. Yes. If repair rates are higher for planes that have been resold, this would be an indication of a lemons problem

Explanation:

Lemons problem is an issue of quality of product, asset, investment : due to asymetric information about the respective quality.

Asymetric Information is when one one party in transaction has more knowledge about the quality of product or asset, than the other party.

Second hand goods are an illustration of this case, as seller has more information about the real quality of good or asset than buyer.

Lemon's problem in single engines airplanes : can be analysed by concept of second hand goods 'asymetric information, lemons problem' it. If the 2nd hand resold planes require higher repairs, it indicates that the buyer had asymetric information about bad quality of planes ( the information which seller had), but realisation of bad quality later implies higher repairs.

Zanzabum

<span>Opening up to international trade would lead a country to increasing its production and specialization of goods. For example, if a country opens international trade and some factories are making a household appliance, the instructions would need to be in the trade countries languages as well as the native language. The number of household appliances made would need to be increased to meet the growing need.</span>

The Blue Hydrangea Law Firm prepays for advertising in the local newspaper. On January 1, the law firm paid $ 7 comma 700 for s

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

$7,700

Explanation:

There are two basis of accounting. These are the cash and accrual basis. In the cash basis of accounting, expenses are full recognized only when cash has been paid.

Hence unlike in the accrual basis where the payment or non payment results in the recognition of the expense once it has been incurred (and a corresponding asset or liability in form of prepayments and accrued expense), expenses under the cash basis of account would always result in a debit to expense and a credit to cash.

As such, if On January 1, the law firm paid $ 7 comma 700 for seven months of advertising, this will be recognized as the expense for the two months ending February 28 under the cash basis.
