Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The efficient market hypothesis is considered a cornerstone of modern financial theory. It states that share prices all the information, including public, private, future information, and predictions.

It is based on certain assumptions.

  1. Information is widely and freely available to everyone.
  2. Investors interpret this information correctly and quickly react to it.
  3. Events that occur in the market are random

The investors cannot beat the market and make risk free excess returns because price reflects all information that is available to everyone.

A company is to hire two new employees. They have prepared a final list of thirteen candidates, all of whom are equally qualifie
mojhsa [17]

Answer: 0.1282

Explanation:

Total number of possible outcome( total candidates) = 13

Total number of men = 13 - 8 = 5

Total number of women = 8

Number of candidates to be selected = 2

Find the probability that both are men :

Probability of 1st candidate being a male = required outcome ÷ total possible outcome = 5/13

Probability of second candidate being a male, means we now have 4 men left and a total of 12 = 4/12

Therefore, P = (5/13) × (4/12)

P = (5/13) ×(1/3) = 5/39 = 0.1282

What is the BEST reason to review your credit reports annually?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": To see if there are any errors or fraudulent activity.

Explanation:

Credit reports provide a summary of all the credits an individual has. It is a good practice to request a credit report at least once a year to find out if there is <em>fraudulent activity</em>. Banks usually inform account holders about fraudulent activity but in some other cases, such as in identity theft, the affected person does not realize what is happening until collection is made for the debt that person is supposed to have.

Net interest margin—often referred to as spread—is the difference between the rate banks pay on deposits and the rate they charg
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

(a) P(X\:>\:5.40)=0.9938

(b) P(X\:

(c) X=4.975 percent

Explanation:

(a) Find the z-value that corresponds to 5.40 percent

.Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

Z=\frac{5.40-4.15}{0.5}

Z=\frac{1.25}{0.5}=2.5

Hence the net interest margin of 5.40 percent is 2.5 standard deviation above the mean.

The area to the left of 2.5 from the standard normal distribution table is 0.9938.The probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin that exceeds 5.40 percent is 1-0.9938=0.0062

(b) The z-value that corresponds to 4.40 percent is Z=\frac{4.40-4.15}{0.5}=0.5The net interest margin of 4.40 percent is 0.5 standard deviation above the mean.

Using the normal distribution table, the area under the curve to the left of 0.5 is 0.6915

Therefore the probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin less than 4.40 percent is 0.6915

(c)  The z-value that corresponds to 95% which is 1.65

We substitute the 1.65 into the formula and solve for X.1.65=\frac{X-4.15}{0.5}

1.65\times 0.5=X-4.150.825=X-4.15

0.825+4.15=X

4.975=X

A bank that wants its net interest margin to be less than the net interest margins of 95 percent of all U.S. banks should set its net interest margin to 4.975 percent.
