Answer:
a)0.7
b) 10.03
c) 0.0801
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of return Probability
9.5 0.1
9.8 0.2
10 0.3
10.2 0.3
10.6 0.1
a.
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=P(R=10)+P(R=10.2)+P(R=10.6)
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.3+0.3+0.1
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.7
b)
Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))
Rate of return(x) Probability(p(x)) x*p(x)
9.5 0.1 0.95
9.8 0.2 1.96
10 0.3 3
10.2 0.3 3.06
10.6 0.1 1.06
Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))
Expected rate of return=0.95+1.96+3+3.06+1.06=10.03
c)
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=![sum(x^2p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=sum%28x%5E2p%28x%29%29-%5Bsum%28x%2Ap%28x%29%29%5D%5E2)
Rate of return(x) Probability(p(x)) x*p(x) x²*p(x)
9.5 0.1 0.95 9.025
9.8 0.2 1.96 19.208
10 0.3 3 30
10.2 0.3 3.06 31.212
10.6 0.1 1.06 11.236
sum[x²*p(x)]=9.025+19.208+30+31.212+11.236=100.681
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=sum(x²*p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]²
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-(10.03)²
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-100.6009
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=0.0801
Subtract 2d from both sides
simplify 10 + 2.5d - 2d to 10 + 0.5d
subtract 10 from both sides
simplify 4 - 10 to -6
divide both sides by 0.5
simplify 6/0.5 to 12
switch the sides
Answer: d = -12.
I think there are missing details in this question. I'll just discuss what an unenrolled tax preparer is.
Unenrolled Tax Preparers are individuals who <span>possess the minimum qualifications required to prepare federal taxes and are granted a Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) but are not Certified Public Accountants (CPA), lawyers, or enrolled agents.
They are only limited to filing only certain types of tax returns and can only represent their client on the basic audit level before the IRS.
In order for an unenrolled tax preparer to become an enrolled agent, he or she must do the following:
1) Pass a three-part examination before the IRS
2) Undergo compliance check on their tax history
3) Complete 16 hours of continuing education every year to retain their status. </span>
