Answer:

The answer is 0.0707

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Probability Return  Probability(return-expected return)^2

0.25                  25                0.25(25-15)^2=25

0.5                     15                0.5(15-15)^2=0

0.25                    5                0.25(5-15)^2=25

Total = 25 +0 + 25

= 50

Thus

The next step is to find the standard deviation which is given below:

Standard deviation=[total probability (return-expected return)^2/total probability]^(1/2)

=(50)^(1/2)

=0.0707

Hence the standard deviation is 0.0707.

Note: The expected return is =15%

P/E ratio = 32 / (170000 / 34000)

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

B. knowledge capital is both nonrival and​ nonexcludable; other firms can freely access the research and development of one particular firm.

Explanation:

Knowledge and capital are non-exclusive, firms may in the long run have access to research and development by other firms. In the short term, companies may be protected by patents. However, in the long run, patents expire and scientific knowledge becomes a common good, so everyone can have access. This acts as a disincentive for firms to invest in research and development. For economic growth the effect is very bad, since if all firms invested in knowledge, productivity would tend to increase significantly, increasing the GDP and wealth of nations.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Dr Interest expense  $4,000

Dr Notes payable      $1,120

Explanation:

The $5,120 repaid comprised of both interest and principal repayments,hence there is need for the amount to be split into the two appropriate accounts.

The interest payable on the loan on yearly basis ,based on the outstanding loan balance of $50,000 is $4,000(8%*$50,000),hence the balance of $1,120($5,120-$4,000) represents the actual repayment of principal,as a result the notes payable account should be debited with $1,120.
