X $4000

Y $6000

Explanation:

Let w be invested in Stock X,

Correlation = -1

Standard Deviation = w(0.75) - (10,000 - w)(0.50)

So,

For standard Deviation to be 0,

0 = 0.75w - 5,000 + 0.50w

w = $4,000

Amount invested in Stock X = $4,000

Amount invested in Stock Y = $6,000

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: 9.2%

Explanation:

The interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be calculated thus:

Firstly, we will calculate the previous risk premium on BBB bonds which will be:

= 11.5% - 8.7% = 2.8%

Then, the new risk premium on BBB bonds will be:

= Previous risk premium / 2

= 2.8% / 2

= 1.4%

Then, the interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be:

= 7.8% + 1.4%

= 9.2%

Martha and Oleg are competitors in a local market and each is trying to decide if it is worthwhile to advertise. If both of them
ad-work [718]

Answer: Martha does not have a dominant strategy

Explanation:

A dominant strategy is one that a player can embark on and get the highest payoff regardless of the actions of their competitor.

In this scenario, there is no strategy that Martha can embark on that would provide the greatest payout regardless of Oleg's decision. If Martha advertises, Oleg makes the same amount advertising as well. If Martha does not advertise, Oleg would decide not to advertise as well and make the same amount.

Martha therefore has no dominant strategy as Oleg would make the same amount regardless of which decision is taken.

At a price of $100, Beachside Canoe Rentals rented 11 canoes. When it increased its rental price to $125, 9 canoes were rented.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

C) 0.9.

Explanation:

The calculation  of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:

Price elasticity of demand is

= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (Change in price ÷ average of price)

where,

q1 = 11

q2 = 9

p1 = $100

p2 = $125

So,

= {(9 - 11) ÷ (9 + 11) ÷ 2}  ÷  {($125 - $100) ÷ ($125 + $100) ÷ 2 }

= {-2 ÷ 10} ÷ {25 ÷ 112.5 }

= -0.9

= 0.9
