Alguien tiene un libro que me pueda compartir con relación a la temática de ¨Rendimiento y riesgo financiero¨ por favor lo ocupo
Amanda [17]

Te recomiendo el siguiente libro que te puede ayudar.

"La Sabiduría de las Finanzas. Descubre el lado humano en el mundo del riesgo y del rendimiento." El autor es Mihir A. Desai.  Hay otro que te puede servir que se llama "El Pequeño Libro de los Altos Rendimientos con Bajo Riesgo. El autor es "Pim Van Vliet. Ambos hablan del los riesgos de las inversiones y los rendimientos en un mundo volátil.

La otra opción es que busques otros libros de Administración y Finanzas en donde venga el subtema de riesgos y rendimientos, aunque podrían no estar tan completos como el desarrollo que le dan al tema en los libros mencionados.

If a nation has a comparative disadvantage in the production of some commodity: Group of answer choices it cannot gain from inte
vazorg [7]

Answer:

it can still gain from international trade in that commodity, by getting it at a lower opportunity cost than if it produced it domestically.

Explanation:

A country has comparative disadvantage in production if it produces at a higher opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

The country with a  comparative disadvantage can gain from trade by trading the good with a country that has  comparative advantage in the production of that good. i.e. the country produces at a lower opportunity cost

For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.  

for country A,  

opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2

for country B,  

opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2

Country B has a comparative disadvantage in the production of beans and country A has a comparative disadvantage in the production of rice

Country B should buy beans from A and A should buy rice from B

Joshua borrowed $500 on January 1, 2017, and paid $25 in interest. The bank charged him a service charge of $15. He paid it all
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: 8%

Explanation:

The Annual Percentage Rate or APR for short is calculated by dividing the finance cost by the total amount borrowed in the following manner,

APR = Finance Charge / Amount borrowed.

To calculate the Finance charge we add the interest and the service charge.

Finance charge = 25 + 15

= $40

Back to the APR formula we will have,

APR = Finance Charge / Amount borrowed

APR = 40/500

= 0.08

APR is 8%.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

1. $132,800

2. $531,200

3. $1,071,200

Explanation:

The break-even point is the level of sales at which the business incur no profit no loss.Fixed and variable costs are covered at this level of sales. Use following formula of break-even to calculate the fixed cost.

Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

$487,200 = Fixed cost / 25%

Fixed Cost = $487,200 x 25% = $121,800

1.

Revised Fixed cost = $121,800 + $11,000 = $132,800

2.

New Break-even point = $132,800 / 25% = $531,200

3.

Desired profit = $135,000

Desired revenue = ( Desired profit + Fixed cost ) /Contribution margin ratio = ( $135,000 + 132,800 ) / 25% = 267,800 / 25% = $1,071,200
