maxonik [38]

Answer:

Malcolm is a professional writer. He has already published many best-sellers. One of his friends expressed interest in knowing more about his writing process, so Malcolm showed his friend a few of his first drafts. The friend observed that the drafts were nothing like the final book, and the writing seemed amateurish compared to Malcolm's published work. When asked about it, Malcolm said that it was the normal way of things. In this scenario, the following is the reason of this:

A) ​Malcolm would have revised his work many times before he was satisfied with it.

Explanation:

  • The option A is best reason because generally a writer doesn't break his or her flow while writing and that is what Malcolm would have done. After, he would have revised his work many times until he was satisfied.
  • The option B is not correct as it is not possible to change the book of a writer entirely by the publishing company.
  • The option C is also incorrect as the drafts were not long and cohesive because his friend found the draft amateurish but not perfect.
  • The option D is incorrect as it is not true that writers only create first draft and other people produce all other subsequent drafts.

In an economy, the total expenditures for a market basket of goods in year 1 (the base year) was $5,000 billion. In year 2, the
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Base year basket price = $5,000 billion

Year 2 basket price = $5,500 billion

So, we can calculate the consumer price index by using following formula:

Consumer price index = (Year 2 basket price ÷ Base year basket price ) × 100

By putting the value, we get

Consumer price index = ( $5,500 ÷ $5,000 ) × 100

= 1.1 × 100

= $110 billion

If staff salaries were $44,000/month last year, and the yearly cost increase from last year to this year $108,000, what is the m
andre [41]

Answer:

The monthly labor cost this year=$53,000

Explanation:

<em>Step 1: Determine yearly cost of labor last year</em>

T=C×N

where;

T=total cost of labor last year

C=labor cost per month

N=number of months in a year

In our case;

T=unknown, to be determined

C=$44,000 per month

N=12 months

Replacing;

T=(44,000×12)=$528,000

<em>Step 2: Determine yearly cost of labor this year</em>

This years cost of labor can be expressed as;

Y=T+I

where;

Y=this year's labor cost

T=last years labor cost

I=the increase in cost from last year to this year

In our case;

Y=unknown to be determined

T=$528,000

I=$108,000

Replacing;

Y=(528,000+108,000)=$636,000

<em>Step 3: Determine monthly cost of labor for this year</em>

Monthly labor cost this year=this years labor cost/number of months in a year

where;

Monthly labor cost this year=unknown to be determined

this years labor cost=$636,000

number of months in a year=12

Replacing;

Monthly labor cost this year=(636,000/12)=$53,000

The monthly labor cost this year=$53,000

You currently own shares in Buckeye Mutual Fund (BMF). Your broker calls and recommends buying shares in a small-capitalization
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Option D is the correct option

Explanation:

To find the optimal fund to combine with risk free rate of return, we will use Coefficient of variation,

Coefficient of variation(CoV) = Standard Deviation/Expected Return

CoV of Buckeye = 14%/20% = 0.7

CoV of Wolverine = 11%/12% = 0.9167

So, higher the CoV higher the risk, we will take Buckeye to combine with Risk Free Return.

Hence, Option A

- Required target return of portfolio = 22%

Risk Free return = 8%

Buckeye Return = 20%

Let the weight of Buckeye be X ,& weight of risk free be (1-X)

Required return = (WRF)*(RRF) + (WB)*(RB)

22 = (1-X)(8) + (X)(20)

22 = 8-8X + 20X

14 = 12X

X = 1.17

SO, weight of Buckeye is 1.17 or 117%

while weight of Risk free is -0.17 (1-1.17) or -17%

Hence, ans is OPTION D
