What are the elements of Attribution Theory ?

1 answer:

7 0

1. Internal Attribution: The process of assigning the cause of behaviour to some internal characteristic, rather than to outside forces. When we explain the behavior of others we look for enduring internal attributions, such as personality traits. For example, we attribute the behavior of a person to their personality, motives or beliefs.

2. External Attribution: The process of assigning the cause of behaviour to some situation or event outside a person's control rather than to some internal characteristic. When we try to explain our own behavior we tend to make external attributions, such as situational or environment features.

If the monthly income of the IBM employees follows a SYMMETRICAL NORMAL distribution, with a median of $5000 and a standard devi

AURORKA [14]

Answer: mean monthly income = $5000

====================================================

Explanation

In any normal distribution, the median and mean are the same value.

-------------

The proof is as follows:

If mean > median was the case, then the distribution would be skewed to the right (ie positively skewed). The right tail is pulled longer than the left tail. But this would contradict the symmetrical nature of the normal distribution. So mean > median must not be the case.

If mean < median, then the distribution would be skewed to the left (negatively skewed). Visually this pulls the left tail longer than the right tail. Like in the previous paragraph, this contradicts the symmetrical nature of the normal distribution. So mean < median must not be the case.

Since mean > median cannot be true, and neither can mean < median, this must indicate mean = median.

-------------

So in short, any symmetrical distribution always has mean = median and they are at the very center of the distribution.

Bond P is a premium bond with a coupon rate of 9 percent. Bond D has a coupon rate of 5 percent and is currently selling at a di

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

a) 7% as their market price will adjsut to give the same yield as the market

b) bond P = -10.17

bonds D = 10.07

Explanation:

we have to calcualte the price variation of the bonds from now (10 years to maturity) to next year (9 years)

Bond P

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 90.000

time 10

rate 0.07

$90 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-10} }{0.07} = PV\\$

PV $632.1223

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.07

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{10} } = PV$

PV 508.35

PV c $632.1223

PV m $508.3493

Total $1,140.4716

then, at time = 9

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 90.000

time 9

rate 0.07

$90 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-9} }{0.07} = PV\\$

PV $586.3709

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 9.00

rate 0.07

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{9} } = PV$

PV 543.93

PV c $586.3709

PV m $543.9337

Total $1,130.3046

Capital loss: 1,130.30 - 1,140.47 = -10.17

We repeat the process for bond D

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 50.000

time 10

rate 0.07

$50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-10} }{0.07} = PV\\$

PV $351.1791

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.07

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{10} } = PV$

PV 508.35

PV c $351.1791

PV m $508.3493

Total $859.5284

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 50.000

time 9

rate 0.07

$50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-9} }{0.07} = PV\\$

PV $325.7616

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 9.00

rate 0.07

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{9} } = PV$

PV 543.93

PV c $325.7616

PV m $543.9337

Total $869.6954

Capital gain: 869.70 - 859.53 = 10.07
