Answer:

The risk will be reduced by 0.109

Explanation:

Standard deviation for stock A = 49%

Standard deviation for stock B = 49%

Correlation = 0.2

Let's use the standard deviation of portfolio equation:

= \sqrt{w_A^2 \sigma _A^2 + w_B^2 \sigma _B^2 + 2w_A w_B \sigma _A \sigma _B * C}

Wherew_B = 100% - 56% = 44%

= \sqrt{(0.56^2 * 0.49^2) + (0.44^2 * 0.49^2) + (2*0.56*0.44*0.49*0.49)0.2}

= 0.381 = 38.1%

The risk will be reduced by:

(0.56*0.49)+(0.44*0.49)-0.381

= 0.109

Normal conditions not applying.

Explanation:

Project management can be defined as the process of designing, planning, developing, leading and execution of a project plan or activities using a set of skills, tools, knowledge, techniques and experience to achieve the set goals and objectives of creating a unique product or service. Generally, projects are considered to be temporary because they usually have a start-time and an end-time to complete, execute or implement the project plan.

The fundamentals of Project Management includes;

1. Project initiation

2. Project planning

3. Project execution

4. Monitoring and controlling of the project

5. Adapting and closure of project.

Refining estimates may be necessary for a number of reasons. For example, people working on prototype development needing time to interact with the design engineers after the design is completed is a good example of normal conditions not applying because it follows the discretion of the manager or team involved.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Based on the case, you might describe the generic strategy of Allegiant Airlines as:__________.

Cost Focus.

Explanation:

Allegiant Airlines, in its strategy, does not try to provide cost leadership to the airline industry.  But it offers low prices for passenger tickets for its specific routes.  This implies that the low cost that it offers is focused on a narrow niche market because this niche will provide it with competitive advantage in the industry.  Allegiant Airlines also employs some competitive pricing schemes, which have made it difficult for new and upcoming businesses to enter their niche market.  Allegiant also sells flights from other airlines on its site.  This tactical move increases customers' awareness of its dominance as a low fare service.
