Answer:

risk premium increases by more of the low - beta stock

A risk averse investor is an investor that avoids risk. if risk aversion increases, it means that the investor is more wary of risky investment.

Beta measures the volatility of a portfolio. the higher the volatility, the more risky the portfolio is.

risk premium measures the rate of return in excess of the risk free rate.

According to CAPM :

risk free rate + (beta x stock risk premium)

Beta is a multiplier of stock risk premium, so the higher the beta, the more there would be an increase in the stock risk premium

If a risk averse investor invests in a high beta stock, he would want extra or higher compensation for holding such a volatile stock. this extra compensation would be in the form of a higher risk premium.

Sunland company installs a new parking lot. The paving cost $30,000 and the lights to illuminate the new parking area cost $12,0
padilas [110]

Answer:

D. $42,000 should be debited to Land Improvements

Explanation:

The cost of the land housing the parking is recorded in the land account. Other costs such as paving cost and lights are improvements and as such are added and recorded in the Land Improvements accounts.

Total Land improvements = $30,000 + $12,000

= $42,000

The right answer is D. $42,000 should be debited to Land Improvements.

Countries are interconnected today as never before. From eating foods from different countries to singing along to songs perform
Nuetrik [128]
This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings.  You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.

In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations.  However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.

I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in.  For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.

There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.

As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic.  We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.  

These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).

When making decisions, managers should consider all relevant benefits and relevant costs, which include: (Check all that apply.)
attashe74 [19]

Answer: e. a, b and c

Explanation:

Opportunity costs are very important costs to look at because they help a company know if they are picking the best alternative available to them.

Out-of-pocket costs are also quite important because the company needs to know if there is a chance that they will have to pay for special features in the project that are not part of the original project but need to be paid for anyway as these monies come out of the cash reserve.

Incremental costs focus on the additional costs involved in a project and so are very important. When making a decision for processing a good further for instance, management needs to know if the incremental cost will be covered by the extra profit that will be gained.
