Explanation: Google wallet and other similar payment methods such as Apple pay involving tapping on a merchant's payment terminal uses Near Field Communication (NFC) technology and not QR technology. Both methods are contactless methods of making payment, however, in the case of QR, it requires customers to simply scan a code similar to a barcode which has been specifically designed by the merchant from their mobile devices with the aid of camera. NFC payments doesn't require scanning a barcode as it only requires authentication by tapping on a merchant's payment system once the devices are close together.
Answer: I found the correct and complete question:
Which of the following statements is most CORRECT with respect to international diversification?
a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets. b) world markets always seem to be most uncorrelated when volatility is present. c) world markets have displayed relatively low and fixed correlations over the last five years. d) global diversification produces gain even when world markets have correlations value near one.
Explanation: The correct answer is "a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets.".
Global markets are generally in different phases and many of them are part of weak economies that therefore have a high degree of volatility and some are correlated so that a loss in one of these markets can lead to a loss in another and earnings can be diminished.
Answer:
The risk premium on factor 2 = 9.26%.
Explanation:
Let us denote the risk premium of factor 2 as x
Below is the formula we can use to calculate the risk premium of factor 2.
Expected return on stock = (Beta (factor 1)* expected return of 1) +(beta of 2x * risk free reate)
17.6% = (1.45*3.2%) + 0.86x+5%
17.6 = 4.64 + 0.86x+5%
17.6 - 4.64 - 5= 0.86x
7.96 = 0.86x
x = 7.96/0.86 =9.2558
The risk premium on factor 2 = 9.26%.
Answer:
a) Elastic
b) total revenue is increased
Explanation:
a) The demand is elastic over the given range.
The demand is elastic because, with the variation in the price of the brownies the demand for the brownies varied too i.e the demand changes.
b) Now,
if the elasticity is same for the decline in price from $1.00 to $1.50 i.e 300
the revenue will increase as:
when the price was $1.00 the demand is 100
i.e
the total revenue = $1.00 × 100 = $100
now,
when the price decline to $0.50 the demand changes to 300
i.e
the total revenue = $0.50 × 300 = $150
hence,
the total revenue is increased.
