Answer:

50%, or 0.5

Explanation:

The slope of the capital allocation line (CAL) can be calculated using the following formula:

Slope of CAL = (Return of risky asset - Return of Risk-less asset) ÷ Standard deviation of the risky asset

Therefore, we have:

Slop of CAL = (16% - 6%) ÷ 20% = 50%, or 0.5

Therefore, slope of the capital allocation line formed with the risky asset and the risk-free asset is approximately 50%, or 0.5.

Suppose an apartment complex converts to a condominium, so that the former renters are now owners of their housing units. Suppos
Lorico [155]

Answer:

GDP is likely to remain same as a result of this conversion.

Explanation:

GDP is the total value of goods & services, produced by an economy, during a given year.

It can be calculated by 2 methods

  • By Expenditure method : GDP = Private Final Capital Expenditure + Govt. Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation + Net Exports
  • By Income method : NDP = Compensation of Employees + Operating Surplus (Rent + Profit + Income) + Mixed Income

Given case - Converting a rented apartment into a resident owned condominium , with value of housing services = rent formerly paid :

This brings no change in the GDP, as : The apartment 'rent' previously paid was included in 'operating surplus' of national income, by Income method. And, the equal condominium value is now included in investment addition i.e 'Gross domestic capital formation' , by Income method.

What type of stores rely on their large size and very deep selection to try to dominate the market?
andrew-mc [135]
Power retailers are the stores that rely on their large size and very deep selection to try to dominate the market. 
Specialty stores are small, so you can eliminate that option immediately. Department stores are usually found within another store, so that's not correct too. Discounters don't have a very deep selection, they usually sell a lot of various things. Anchor stores are found within malls, so that's incorrect too.

Answer:

benefits consumers of the product.

Explanation:

Import tariffs are generally  put in place to protect domestic producers from foreign producers. Tariffs benefit domestic producers but hurt consumers since they are forced to pay higher prices.

An agreement between Jim and his 18-year-old daughter, Betty, provides that he will give her $25,000 if she does not marry until
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

No, Jim is not correct.

Explanation:

Betty will win this case.

Generally, the law encourages marriage as its policy. If there is any contract that prevent or restrict marriage in whatever way, such contract would be considered null and void because it is against the public policy.

Despite the above, contracts will be generally considered valid when they place reasonable restrictions on marriage. In this question, the restriction placed on Betty that she should get married until after her 22nd birthday is reasonable and has to be considered to be valid. Based on this, Betty has to be paid the $25,000 as laid down in the binding contract between the two parties.

Therefore, Jim is not correct.
