Answer:

Low betas.

Explanation:

Low beta stocks are considered to be less risky, and usually they also offer low returns. The risk of losing capital in this type of investment is very low. This type of investment is ideal for people that are risk adverse and prefer to maintain their capital even at low returns.

On the other hand the higher the beta the higher the risk, and it also comes with higher returns on investment.

Because the needs for household goods and food are always constant, the companies that supply them tend to have stock that are low beta.

                              First package:        Second package:

Annual salary =        $90,000                   $80,000

Parking fee                 (3,500)                        3,840 (free parking)

Parking fee                 (3,500)                        3,840 (free parking)
