Answer:

Explanation: Because of the complexes presented by global trade, a company that participated in it could face the following risks:

1. Risk in the transport of products: If the company markets products abroad, transport is a determining risk factor since there is usually a greater distance and there could be several inconveniences in the delivery of the products.

2. Customer dissatisfaction with the merchandise delivered since it could not be liked because the characteristics presented vary from those presented previously.

3. Risk in the use of international trade laws: This is one of the factors in which greater care is due, since each country has a different regulation and if it is not known, infraction could be committed.

You invest $100 in a risky asset with an expected rate of return of 0.21 and a standard deviation of 0.21 and a T-bill with a ra

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

-0.4242

Explanation:

Ra = 0.21 or 21%

Rf = 0.045 or 4.5%

Rp = 0.28 or 28%

Expected return on a portfolio is weighted average return of its assets :

Rp = Rf*(1-w) + Ra*w

28 = 4.5*(1-w) + 21*w

28 = 4.5 - 4.5w + 21w

28 - 4.5 = 21w - 4.5w

21w - 4.5w = 28 - 4.5

16.5w = 23.5

w = 23.5/16.5

w = 1.4242

Hence, weight of risky asset = 1.4242

So, Weight of risk free asset = 1 - 1.4242

Weight of risk free asset = -0.4242

Finished Goods Inventory which is expected to be sold and converted to cash within one year, and Raw Materials Inventory which is expected to be converted to finished good within one year are more liquid than Prepaid expense.

Therefore, the least liquid among current assets’ item above is the Prepaid Expense as it is cash paid for services not yet received..

D) The supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase

Explanation:

The externality here is a negative one where the hydroelectric plants has to bear the cost of pollution as the paper mills operates.

Correcting means to make the paper mills pay for the external costs of their production and compensate the power plant for the additional cost that incurred as they have to clean up the water.

As the cost of production reduces, the power plant will be more willing to supply electricity at similar prices, ie. their supply curve will shift to the right. It will intersect with the demand curve of the consumers at a point with higher quantity (and maybe lower price)

In other words, they will supply more electricity.
