Answer:

The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).

Explanation:

Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability

=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%

probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2

0.67          20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243

0.33          -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786

Total=242.239371%

Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)

=15.56%(Approx).

The Board of Directors has voted to add a new product line. Casey's department will be directly responsible for implementing the
liubo4ka [24]

No, because the decision has already been made by the Board of Directors.

More about directors and decision making:

The board's decision-making process is divided into two stages: communication and decision-making. Each director decides whether to incur a cost to communicate his information to others during the communication stage. At the decision-making stage, all directors take actions (e.g., vote) based on their private information and information inferred from the discussion, and the board makes a collective decision. Directors may have conflicts of interest and thus prefer a decision that is not in the best interests of the shareholders. Directors may also have a preference for conformity and thus incur a loss if their actions differ from those of other directors, such as voting differently than the majority.
