Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

Business
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is E) Hedge funds are not as highly regulated as most other types of financial institutions. The justification for this light regulation is that only "sophisticated investors" (i.e., those with high net worths and high incomes) are permitted to invest in these funds, and these investors supposedly can do any necessary "due diligence" on their own rather than have it done by the SEC or some other regulator.

That is the correct statement.

In financial terms, a hedge fund is a structure of pooled investments of a limited liability company or limited partnership. The manager that operates the hedge fund raises money from other investors and put the money to work in some strategy it considers to be the most profitable. Wealthy people hire specialized managers to manage the fund in order to maximize profits.

For each of the scenarios below, determine whether the employer is likely to be discriminating against a person because of age:
barxatty [35]

Answer and Explanation:

In the U.S., the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the authority protecting individuals from discrimination at work in any kind because of <em>race, gender, age, religion, ethnicity, nationality, language, sexual orientation, impairment</em> differences or any other type of unfair treatment not related to work itself.

Age discrimination could take place when certain groups of individuals are valued more than others because of their youth or because their white hair represents experience. In any situation, unequal opportunities are given which must be sanctioned. Thus:

A) A young lawyer who just finished work on a multimillion-dollar development deal downtown is hired by an economic development firm in lieu of an older lawyer who works on litigation.  

<em>This example does not represent discrimination because the election is based on performance rather than age. </em>

B) A large retail outlet hires a 30-year-old woman to greet customers instead of an 80-year-old woman who has been greeting customers in other stores for a decade.  

<em>This example reflects discrimination because a younger woman is hired mainly based on her age rather than her expertise. </em>

C) The owner of a local, hip smoothie bar in a university town just fired a graduate student who had worked at the bar for three years and instead hired a college sophomore.

<em>This example represents discrimination since a younger student is hired to replace another student who was in the last year of university.</em>

the percent of sales method for estimating bad debts uses only income statement account balances to estimate bad debts. group st
crimeas [40]

The statement that the percent sales method for estimating bad debts for a company, will only use those balances in the income statement is False.

<h3>What is the percent of sales method?</h3>

The percent of sales method is one of the methods that companies can use to estimate the bad debts that it expects in a given period. Bad debts refer to those Account Receivables that will not pay the company back even after they have taken goods or services on credit. In order to be able to use the percent of sales method, the sales of a company need to be known.

The sales that a company makes includes both the sales that the company made and the accounts receivable. The Accounts Receivables go to the Balance Sheet and Sales go to the Income Statement. This means that the Balance Sheet balances are used as well as Income Statement balances and not just the latter.

0.013 is the annualized rate of occurrence (ARO) for a natural disaster affecting an organization.

Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO): An expected frequency of the hazard occurring over the course of a year is known as the Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO). ALE is computed using ARO (annualized loss expectancy).

The annualised rate is applicable for a specific amount of time (less than 12 months). It is a mathematical extrapolation of an estimated yearly returns rate. In order to determine it, multiply the monthly change in returns rate by 12 to obtain the annual rate.

Mackenzie is responsible for buying a week's supply of food and medication for the puppies and kittens at a local shelter. the f
Ira Lisetskai [31]
The budget is $4,240.

There are 164 kittens and 24 puppies.
Let
x = amount spent on each kitten
y =  amount spent on each puppy.

The cost for each puppy is twice a much as that for a kitten. Therefore
y = 2x                  (1)

The available amount is $4,240, therefore
164x + 24y = 4240          (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
164x + 24(2x) = 4240
212x = 4240
x = $20
y = 2x = $40

Answer: $40 for each puppy.

OleMash [197]

The debt to equity ratio for the period, based on the total liabilities and total equity, would be  1.31

<h3>How to find the debt to equity ratio?</h3>

The debt to equity ratio shows the amount of debt that a company has as a ratio of the debts to the equity that the company has.

The debt to equity ratio can be found by the formula:

= Total liabilities / Total Equity

Total liabilities = $16, 113, 000

Total equity = $12, 300, 000

The debt to equity ratio is therefore:
= 16, 113, 000 / 12, 300, 000

= 1.31
