S_A_V [24]

Answer: Alternative 3 will be selected.

Explanation:

The system that should be selected is the alternative that is better than the other alternatives by being higher than MARR if selected.

First compare A1 to A0

The rate of return here is 18% which is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 1 should be chosen over A0 which is to do nothing.

Compare A1 to A2

If A2 is chosen over A1, the incremental return is 10% which is less than the MARR of 15% so A2 should not be chosen over A1. A1 should instead be chosen over A2.

Compare A1 to A3

If A3 is chosen over A1 then the incremental return would be 18%. This is higher than the MARR of 15% so Alternative 3 should be chosen over Alternative 1.

Alternative 3 should be chosen over A1 which should be chosen over A2 and A0.

A3 will therefore be selected.

You put $209 into an investment at 7% for four years. What will the balance be at the end of four years?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$273.96

Explanation:

The balance will be the future value of $209, at 7% for four years.

The formula for calculating the future value is as below.

FV = PV × (1+r)^n

Where PV is the present value, $209

r= is the interest rate  7% or 0.07

n= 4 years

FV = $209 x ( 1+ 0.07) ^4

Fv =$209 x 1. 310

Fv = 273.9563

Fv= 273.96

Alika [10]

Answer:

Sell 1,000 shares of XXYZZ and buy 10 XYZZ put contracts

Explanation:

In the stock markets a bullish trend is when the price of the stock increases, while a bearish market is when the stock price decreases.

In this scenario the customer owns 1,000 shares of stock XYZZ stock that have been in a bullish trend rising from $40 to $45.

Usually a bullish trend is followed by a bearish trend.

If the customer is sure there will be a bear on the stock them he should sell or make a put trade.

On sale of the 1,000 shares the customer will make $5 per share, and enter a put option since the market is going bearish.
