All of the following statements regarding Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) pass-through securities are true EXCEP
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

B) GNMAs are considered to be the riskiest of the agency issues

Explanation:

The Ginnie Mae or GNMA pass through securities are mortgage backed. The Great recession taught us that mortgage backed securities are not always 100% secure, but they are still considered secure investments basically because they are guaranteed by the US government. They are similar to the securities sold by the US Treasury.

Ginnie Mae basically guarantees mortgages using federal funds (from Federal Housing Administration and Department of Veterans Affairs).

garri49 [273]

Answer:

  a) 120 skiers per day

  b) 6.25% increase in revenue

Explanation:

a) If the average skier stays 10 days, the average turnover is 1/10 of the skiers per day, or 1200/10 = 120 skiers per day.

__

b) For a stay of n days, the average skier spends ...

  50 +(n-1)30 = 20 +30n

and the average spending per day is ...

  (20 +30n)/n = (20/n) +30

So, for a 10-day stay, the average skier spends in restaurants ...

  20/10 +30 = 32 . . . . per day

And for a 5-day stay, the average skier will spend ...

  20/5 +30 = 34 . . . . per day

The change in restaurant revenue is expected to be ...

  (34 -32)/32 × 100% = 2/32 × 100% = 6.25%

Restaurant revenues will be 6.25% higher compared to last year.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

C. groupthink

Explanation:

According to my research on in the field of psychology, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this scenario illustrates the concept of groupthink. This is a psychological phenomenon which states that the desire for maintaining a cooperative and harmonious nature within a group leads individuals in that group to behave irrationally leading to bad decision-making choices. Which is what is happening in this scenario since Mikhail isn't voicing her opinion in order to maintain the same group dynamic.
