Have you ever “confused problems with symptoms?” What does that phrase mean?

1 answer:

3 0

Yes, I have.
“confused problems with symptoms" refers to a situation when we see the side effect of a problem as the most crucial thing to handle rather than the core of the problem itself.
For example, let's say that you cannot find fit clothings because you're overweight. If your solution to this problem is to write a letter of complain to the company and demanding so they could produce suitable sized clothing for you (rather than losing weight), You're confusing problems with the symtoms.

Answer:

Mr. Manning

a. YHA is the best expected value decision with an expected value of $59,766.

b. HTC is the worst expected value decision.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling

SUA $68,082 $47,373 $36,362

YSP $64,850 $49,320 $44,865

HTC $57,198 $52,949 $50,605

YHA $59,766 $59,766 $59,766

Expected Value:

Stock Market Rising Market Stable Market Falling Expected Value

Probability 60% 30% 10%

SUA $68,082*60% $47,373*30% $36,362*10% = $58,697

YSP $64,850*60% $49,320*30% $44,865*10% = 58,163

HTC $57,198*60% $52,949*30% $50,605*10% = 55,264

YHA $59,766*60% $59,766*30% $59,766*10% = 59,766

SUA = $40,849.20 + $14,211.90 + $3,636.20 = $58,697.30

YSP = $38,880 + $14,796 + $4,486.50 = $58,162.50

HTC = $34,318.80 + $15,884.70 + $5,060.50 = $55,264

YHA = $35,859.60 + $17,929.80 + $5,976.60 = $59,766

By questioning the proposal done by Hugh, Irene showed the characteristic of being able to scrutinize properly certain things. This attitude is helpful especially when we are in doubt of the certain subject. By doing so, we can help those who proposed it to further do improvements on the certain subject.

Which of the following statements is correct?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. Different economic models employ different sets of assumptions.

Explanation:

To approach the study of economic reality it is necessary, in some way, to simplify it; keep certain variables under control. Precisely for this, it is that economic models are built.

Economic models are built on principles of departure, called "assumptions." Such assumptions fulfill the same role as the postulates in geometry. That is:

They are not subject to deduction from other more basic principles.
They are "reasonably" true but not necessarily verifiable.
They function as premises in the logical structure to deduce the conclusions and correlations found in the lowest levels of generality.

We can say then, that the theoretical explanations refer to invisible "relationships", whose existence is proposed by the theory, and whose implications are logically deduced, and then corroborated by observations. They consist of:

Assumptions (eg subjects want to maximize their earnings).
Relevant variables (eg price and quantity).
Binding hypothesis (eg quantity demanded based on price).
Conclusions or predictions of observable facts (eg prices will rise).
