True. Risk in investment can be defined as the possibility that the investor may lose a big portion or all of the initial investment or make very high returns in a short period. Risk which is often likened to volatility dictates that the higher the volatility the higher the chances of returns. Speculative investments such as leveraged ETFs(commodities such as gold, oil, silver), options, venture capital trusts are considered high risk and often so offer handsome returns or cost the investor all or even more of their initial capital. It is however important to note that high risk does not automatically translate into high returns. The intrinsic value of the investment vehicle among other factors need to be considered in depth to determine if the investment is worth the risk

You don't communicate to convey activities, or to integrate activities. We can, therefore, eliminate answers "a," "b," and "e."

So is our purpose to discuss or organize an activity? Either answer fits. We discuss activities to gather the opinions of others regarding said activities. But discussing is, itself, a form of communicating, it is not an outcome. The other points listed are outcomes "we provide... influence... [through communication]." Therefore, the answer must be "c. organize".

Although Costco pays its employees substantially more than its closest competitor, Sam’s Club, it has similar financial returns on its labor costs due to lower turnover and higher levels of productivity

Option A

Explanation:

While Costco costs its workers slightly more than its closest competitor, Sam's Club, Costco pays higher prices in order to recruit more professionals and to provide better customer service due to lower turnover and a similar financial return.

Direct costs involve wages for staff making a product and employees on the production line, while indirect costs apply to assistance, such as employees repairing factory equipment.

When labor costs are wrongly distributed or measured, the price of goods or services may be changed from their actual costs and profits from losses.
