Answer: Macaulay Duration = 2.6908154485 = 2.69

Explanation:

Macaulay Duration = Sum of Cash flows Present Value/ current bond price

Cash flows: year 1 = $12

Cash flows: year 2 = 12

Cash flows: year 3 = 100 + 12 = 112

Sum of Cash Flow PV = (1×12÷ (1.118)^1) + (2×12÷ (1.118)^2) +(3×112÷(1.118)^3)

Sum of Cash Flow PV = 270.37857712

Current Bond Price or Value = Face Value/ (1+r)^n + PV of Annuity

Current Bond Price or Value = 1000/ (1.118)^3 + (30×(1 - (1+0.118)^-3)/0.118

Current Bond Price or Value  = 100.48202201

Macaulay Duration = 270.37857712 ÷ 100.48202201

Macaulay Duration = 2.6908154485 = 2.69

valkas [14]

Answer: The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Business behavior will not determine the ethics of society. Businesses can't be responsible to change the moral and ethical behaviors of a single person or an entire world. Only a person can change their own behavior. A society in whole can only be changed by each person acting upon their own free will.

If a business is not ethical, then they need to change the way they work and do business and lead by example.

What is an example of statistical reasoning?
zubka84 [21]

Answer/Explanation:

Statistics educators often talk about their desired learning goals for students, and invariably, refer to outcomes such as being statistically literate, thinking statistically, and using good statistical reasoning. Despite the frequent reference to these outcomes and terms, there have been no agreed upon definitions or distinctions. Therefore, the following definitions were proposed by Garfield (2005 and have been elaborated in Garfield and Ben-Zvi (2008).

Statistical literacy is regarded as a key ability expected of citizens in information-laden societies, and is often touted as an expected outcome of schooling and as a necessary component of adults’ numeracy and literacy. Statistical literacy involves understanding and using the basic language and tools of statistics: knowing what basic statistical terms mean, understanding the use of simple statistical symbols, and recognizing and being able to interpret different representations of data (Garfield 1999; Rumsey 2002; Snell 1999)
