<u>Explanation:</u>

In the given case it is valid contract as there is time, promise, benefit and obligation to do thing. But verbal contracts are difficult to prove. Stan and Byron have a verbal contract which is a promise for 10 days and the contract has exchange of goods for $600. Offer is made by Byron but the acceptance is not yet given by Stan.

Here only the offer is made and it is not yet accepted by Byron. here Stan has revoked the offer through letter so the revoke has been communicated to the other party through letter. So in this case there is no breach of contract as the contract was clearly revoked by Stan through his letter.

Explain how the production possibilities curve can be used to illustrate each of the following: a. wastefulness b. what happens
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A. wastefulness - production inside PPC ; B. Economy growth - PPC shift outwards/rightwards ; C. Economy at Productive Efficiency - production on PPC ; D. Unattainable Production- Outside PPC

Explanation:

PPC is graphical representation of production combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

PPC is based on assumption : That resources are best efficiently utilised. So, all product combinations ON PPC reflect 'Economy is at Productive Efficiency'

All production points INSIDE PPC reflect inefficient utilisation of resources i.e 'Wastage'

Points OUTSIDE PPC are 'Unattainable Product Combinations'- as they are beyond economy's best optimum production, given resources & technology.

'Economic growth' is increase in resources &/or technology which increases economy's production potential and PPC curve SHIFTS rightwards or outwards.

Your investment portfolio consists of ​$15 comma 000 invested in only one stocklong dashAmazon. Suppose the​ risk-free rate is 5
Kay [80]

Answer:

a)

The CAPM hypothesis states that the effective market is utilized place in the market and has the maximum eminent expected return of any assortment for a given randomness and the smallest variability for a assumed expected return. By allotment utilized place in the market assortment, you can achieve a standard return,

Thus,  

Expected Rate of Return = [Risk free Rate + Beta × (Market Risk - Risk free Rate)]

Beta = [Expected Rate of Return – Risk Free Rate] / [Market Risk - Risk free Rate]

Beta = [12% - 5%] / [10% -5%]

Beta = 7/5

Beta =1.4

The final possible instability while taking the same estimated rate of return as Amazon is $21,000 ($15,000 × 1.4) which indicate that it borrows $6,000 ($21,000 - $15,000). Now the -$6,000 is specified as strength benefit. So the volatility of the asset is,

Volatility = [Volatility of Asset x Beta]

Volatility = [18% × 1.4]

Volatility = 0.252 or 25.20%

Therefore the volatility is less than the volatility of Amazon.

b)

The market share has a instability of "n". The corresponding instability of Amazon will be 2.22 (40%/18%). So the assortment with the most notable predictable give back that has a faint variability from Amazon is $33,333.33 ($15,000x 2.22) which will be the market assortment and it also uses $18,333.33 ($33,333.33 - $15,000). Here the -$18,333.33 is specified as strength asset. So the return is,

Expected Return = [Risk free Rate + Beta × (Market Risk – Risk free Rate)]

Expected Return = [5%+ 122 × (10% - 5%)]

Expected Return = [5%+ 122 × 5%]

Expected Return = [0.05+0.111111]

Expected Return = 0.161111 or1 6.11%

Therefore the volatility is higher than the expected return of Amazon.
