Answer:
B. the highest valued alternative that must be given up to engage in an activity.
Explanation:
Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone while choosing an alternative.
Eg1: If I like Chapati more than rice & rice more than curd, the opportunity cost of consuming chapati is the next best option i.e rice.
Eg2 : Working as school teacher with salary 20000, next best option salary as coaching tutor i.e 10000 is the Opportunity Cost
A is inapt : Opportunity cost can be monetary or non monetary. Eg2 has monetary opportunity cost. But, Eg 1 has opportunity cost in terms of rice' (sacrifised) satisfaction.
C is inapt : Opportunity cost is only the cost of next best alternative & not all alternatives. Eg1 - Curd i.e 3rd best option after chapati, is not the opportunity cost after chapati.
Answer:
Supervised and Unsupervised Learning:
a. Unsupervised learning
b. Supervised learning
3. Supervised learning
4. Unsupervised learning
Explanation:
The key difference between supervised machine learning and unsupervised machine learning is that with supervised machine learning there is a training dataset (labeled data) on which the algorithm is trained to predict patterns. With unsupervised machine learning on the other hand, there is no training data. So, the algorithm discovers patterns on itself without reference to another labeled data or training dataset.
Answer:
bond market value $660
Explanation:
We need to calculate the present value of the maturity and the cuopon payment using the effective rate of 9.7%
First we do the annuity:
C 24.25 (1,000 face value x 4.85 bond rate / 2 )
time 24.00 (12 year 2 payment a year)
rate 0.04850 (current rate divide by 2 to get it annually)
PV $339.55
Then present value of the maturity
Maturity 1,000.00 the face value of the bond
time 24.00
rate 0.04850
PV 320.89
Finally we add them together:
PV coupon payment $339.5545
PV maturity $320.8910
Total $660.4455
rounding to nearest dollar
bond market value $660
