<span>Your task is to take this and construct a graphical representation of the data. in doing so, you determine that as the price of soup rises, the quantity of soup demanded decreases. This confirms the Law of Supply and Demand which states that the supply is inversely proportional to the demand. Simply speaking, whenever there is an increase in the price, the supplier tends to produce an excess supply even though the demand is low to generate a greater profit.</span>
From an accounting standpoint, stockholders' investment and revenues increase the assets of the company without adding to the liabilities. Therefore according to the equation (A = L + E), equity must increase.
Similarly, issuing dividends and paying expenses pays cash out of the company, which decreases assets without changing liabilities. Therefore equity must decrease.
Another way to think of it is: what contributes to the company's profit and/or value, and what decreases these things? Well, revenues and people investing in the company are good (and therefore good for stockholders), and giving cash out and paying expenses are costs to the company (and therefore decrease value for stockholders).
Answer:
Variance of the return = 0.01983
Explanation:
= Σ
/ N - 1
Mean return = 17.88% + -5.16% + 20.39% = 11.0367%
Variance = [(17.88% - 11.0367%)2 + (-5.16% - 11.0367%)2 + (20.39% - 11.0367%)2] /(3 - 1)
Variance = [0.004683 + 0.026233 + 0.008748]/2
Variance = 0.01983
