Answer:

3.6%

Explanation:

The computation of the alpha for the informed investors is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of k = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk free rate of return) + Alpha

16% = 4% + 1.4 × (10% - 4%) + Alpha

16% = 4% + 8.4% + Alpha

16% = 12.4% + Alpha

So,

Alpha = 3.6%

We simply applied the above formula to determine the alpha

291. Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the projection of increasing consumer spending this year.
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is E:

Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the increase in consumer spending that is projected for.

Explanation:

i. Much of the hope (this is the main Subject of the conversation)

ii. for continued improvement (this is the Prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “hope”)

iii. of the economy (this is a Prepositional phrase – it modifies the noun “improvement”)

iv. lies in the projection (This is the main Verb – “lies”)

v. of increasing consumer spending this year. (This is the prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “projection”)

At first glance, it would appear that the positive experience that is anticipated is the projection.

<em>A projection (unqualified) in this case is an estimate of how a thing will be in the future.</em>

Having stated this, we see that it is more logical to hope for a positive experience that will occur than to just hope. Hence the hope is really in the increase in consumer spending not in the projection as a separate word.

(E) therefore is the Correct option because in this option that in this option “that” modifies “increase”.

Bob bought some land costing $16,390. today, that same land is valued at $46,817. How long has bob owned this land if the price
faltersainse [42]

Bob has to own his land for 18 years if the price is increasing at the rate of 6% per year.

Given that land was bought by Bob for $16390, the price is increasing at the rate of 6%, price of land today is $46817.

We are required to find the time for which Bob need to own the land so that the price of the land is $46817 today.

Compounding means calculating amount on the principal and the amount added interest.

Rate of increasing the price of land be 6%.

Price when Bob bought the land=$16390.

Price of land today=$46817.

It is like compounding of interest and the sum is calculated as under:

S=P*(1+r)^{n}

In the above equation P is theamount at beginning,r is rate of increasing and n is the number of years.

46817=16390(1+0.06)^{n}

46817/16390=(1.06)^{n}

(1.06)^{n}=2.8564

(1.06)^{n}=(1.06)^{18}  (Approximately)

From both the sides we will get n=18.

Hence Bob has to own his land for 18 years if the price is increasing at the rate of 6% per year.
