Answer:

equal to 1

Explanation:

Beta refers to a coefficient that denotes the degree of responsiveness of security returns with respect to that of market return. Beta is calculated as,

= \frac{Change\ in\ security\ return}{Change\ in\ market\ return}

which further means, beta is equal to deviation (risk) in security return w.r.t deviation (risk) in market return.

Beta is a measure of systematic risk which is, the market related risk to which whole of stock market is exposed to. Examples of systematic risk would be, change in the inflation rate, political instability, change in state of economy such as boom or recession, etc.

Systematic risk is not a company specific risk and thus, such a risk cannot be eliminated by a company via diversification of investments.

Thus, for a security whose systematic risk is equal to that of the market , it's beta will be equal to one which means the magnitude by which, the market falls or rises, the stock shall also fall or rise by the same margin. It also means the same direction of movement i.e if market rises, stock price would rise by same proportion and vice versa.

The ratio of the percentage change in the quantity supplied of a good/service/e-good/e-service to a given percentage change in i
KiRa [710]

The answer is true. The percentage change in quantity supplied as a result of a specific percentage change in the commodity's own price is known as price elasticity of supply.

It is determined by dividing the percentage change in the quantity delivered by the percentage change in the commodity's price. These factors impact the price elasticity of supply: Number of producers: simplicity of entrance. Spare capacity: If there is a change in demand, it is simple to expand production. Switching is simple when production of the good may be changed, making the supply more elastic. The availability of non-essential items like soft drinks.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Company ABC and Emily, a single filing taxpayer

The maximum amount excludable from Emily's gross income for the dependent care expenses, which Emily can report on her tax return is $3,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations for Emily:

Dependent care flexible spending arrangement deduction = $4,500

Fair market value of the on-site dependent care used = $700

Form W-2 reported dependent care assistance = $5,200

Maximum amount excludable from Emily's gross income for the dependent care expenses Emily can report on her tax return is $3,000.

b) According to the IRS records, Emily can exclude or deduct dependent care benefits provided by a dependent care benefit plan, an amount not exceeding $3,000 if one qualifying person was cared for or $6,000 if two or more qualifying persons were cared for.  Since the number of persons cared for is not disclosed, it is assumed that Emily cared for only one qualifying person.  Therefore, $3,000 is the maximum she is allowed to deduct.

Teri, Doug, and Brian are partners with capital balances of $20,000, $30,000, and $50,000, respectively. They share income and l
mixer [17]

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

For computing the Doug withdrawal amount, first, we have to compute the net income or net loss which is shown below:

Net income/loss = Revenue - expense

                           = $350,000 - $380,000

                            = -$30,000

Now Doug share in net loss = Net loss × (his share ÷ total share)

                                               =  - $30,000 × (2 ÷ 6)

                                               =  - $10,000

We knew that the Doug capital is $30,000 and his share in loss is $10,000

So, its withdrawal amount = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000

Liz Mulig earns 52,000 per year as a philosophy professor. She receives a raise of 2.5% in a year in which CPI increases by 3.8%
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

She lost $754.05.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Liz Mulig earns 52,000 per year as a philosophy professor. She receives a raise of 2.5% in a year in which CPI increases by 3.8%.

<u>The rise in her salary allows her to increase her purchasing power. On the contrary, inflation decreases purchasing power. We need to calculate the differences between both effects and determine whether she can buy more or less.</u>

<u></u>

Increase in salary= 52,000*1.025= $53,300

Inflation effect= 52,000/(1-0.038)= $54,054.05

To maintain her purchasing power, now, she needs to earn $54,054.05.

She lost $754.05.

Why might a person assume the Mr. White could be doing well financially
defon

\huge\color{purple}{\mathbb{ANSWER:}}

Mr. White was the third and final owner of the talisman in W. W. Jacobs' short story "The Monkey's Paw." He plucked it from the fireplace when the previous owner, Sergeant Major Morris, tossed it there to burn and end the chain of misfortune that came with it. He is motivated mostly by curiosity, since he seems happy with his life and is financially secure.

Mr. White took the paw from his pocket and eyed it dubiously. "I don't know what to wish for, and that's a fact," he said slowly. "It seems to me I've got all I want."
