Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Unexpected increases in the number of suppliers.

Explanation:

Frauds or money cleansing usually requires the help of a network of different business interconnected to clear the illegal funds with the excuse of having made commercial activities that never took place. In most cases, accounting documents are faked so that the proceeds of the questionable funds may seem as legal as possible.

In that case, if a company counts with more suppliers and fraud is taking place in the organization, <em>they will have the excuse of making more payments so more funds can go out of the company</em>.

Answer:

hope this helps

Assume that you hold a well-diversified portfolio that has an expected return of 11.0% and a beta of 1.20. You are in the process of buying 1,000 shares of Alpha Corp at $10 a share and adding it to your portfolio. Alpha has an expected return of 21.5% and a beta of 1.70. The total value of your current portfolio is $90,000. What will the expected return and beta on the portfolio be after the purchase of the Alpha stock? Do not round your intermediate calculations.

Old portfolio return

11.0%

Old portfolio beta

1.20

New stock return

21.5%

New stock beta

1.70

% of portfolio in new stock = $ in New / ($ in old + $ in new) = $10,000/$100,000=

10%

New expected portfolio return = rp = 0.1 × 21.5% + 0.9 × 11% =

12.05%​

New expected portfolio beta = bp = 0.1 × 1.70 + 0.9 × 1.20 =

1.25​

Consider the following limit order book for a share of stock. The last trade in the stock occurred at a price of $70. Limit Buy
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

<u><em>$69.80</em></u>

Explanation:

Note, a market order is an order designed to execute an order immediately by <em>matching the best available price</em> on the sell order list.

When we look carefully at the sell order book, we observe that the only sell order containing the specified quantity of 120 units of shares at a price close to the market price is <u>$69.80.</u> Even though there are other cheaper orders are available, their order quantity does <em>not </em>match the market buy order for the 120 shares and thus would not be filled.
